Would love to see the house after renovations
A follow up after renovation would be great. Also, more real estate content from you would be appreciated, especially with emphasis on Japanese architecture.
For a house built in the 1980s the house is in remarkable shape. Great potential.
itβs such a blessing to have so much outdoor space itβs limitless!
I swear this is the home from The Grudge. Paolo, run!!!
Dear Paolo and Family, I hope you are still making videos when you are 80. ππ I enjoy them so much, thank you for sharing an amazing corner of the world!
I live in a more rural area of Japan (Mie Prefecture) and I had assumed that a house in Tokyo would cost way more than a comparable one here. But actually, the place that Paolo shows us is not too far off what Iβd expect for the same price here. Maybe about 20% higher? My family just recently finished building a house here, and the total cost was just a little less than the place in this video, including construction and land. I video blogged the whole process, if anyone is interested!
That house has so much potential! Far more spacious than I would have originally expected. I do like the Scandinavian look downstairs. The built-in cabinetry is very similar to the "schrank" that many homes in Germany have. In fact, much more storage than typical for Japan, I should think. The one downstairs in the entry I would definitely restore rather than replace. The balcony connecting the two rooms is just fantastic. I could definitely see having some tea or coffee out there in the early morning on a day off. The lavatory upstairs by the stairs is a very nice hospitable touch that I would keep, but just replace the fixture itself. The garages are very beneficial as they are deep enough for storage in the back and still park cars or motorbikes. All in all, it's just great. I think once renovated it will definitely be a great investment. I'll start packing. π
Great house for the price! Location is not for everyone! The yard is AMAZING! Lovely family home! Please do follow-up videos, as the renovation progresses! Thanks, Paolo! πππ
It saddens me to hear that it will be an Airbnb. It looks like a lovely home to start a family in! Ah, but one can dream. Please do show us the results when it's renovated!
Hi Paolo β€ I love your videos π My Mum is Japanese π―π΅β©οΈ Your videos remind me of Japan. Thank you so much for creating videos I appreciate them so much β€ Hope you have a wonderful day ππ©·
This place has SO much cool potential! I'd love to see a video on how it turns out in the future π
YES! We will need a follow-up video of what it looks like completed after renovations. I love seeing this aspect of life in Japan!
Just needs a good gardening makeover and a touch of an update to 2024, lick of paint and try to lessen the orangey wood panels ... would love to see the results of full renovation!
Yes please follow this renovation project
Nice! I'd move in as is and fix it up over time, since a lot of the issues are cosmetic. It's a shame that a family didn't get a chance to purchase it. Affordable housing is hard to find, and it seems like Airbnb units are taking away opportunities from young families to purchase a home. I'd definitely put in another tree - maybe a yuzu, lemon, cherry, plum or mandarin. Clean up the garden space and garden outdoors. Use the patio area for barbecues, etc.
Awesome video as always Paolo. This house has quite a lot of treasures in it I hope your friend took the time to go through the cabinets and save the treasures. I also like to see it when your friend is done with the renovations.
Would totally watch the finished reno. This was interesting.
Awesome video! Love the variety from the food show. Please show more different areas of Japan. You are such a great videographer and presenter.
