Property 9: FREE | As-Is Fixer/Demolition Opportunity on Large Plot Near Kumano Shrine | Hayashima-cho, Okayama Prefecture

This property in Hayashima-cho, Tsukubo-gun, Okayama Prefecture, is listed at zero yen — a free transfer — and is being offered as-is to any buyer prepared to take it on in its current condition. Located in a residential area close to the forested surroundings of Kumano Shrine, the site sits within a 5-minute drive of Hayashima Station on the JR Setouchi Ohashi Line.
