Okinoshima, Shimane

This $13K Oceanfront House in Japan Lets You Walk Straight Into the Sea 🌊

Hidden away on Oki Island in Okinoshima Town, Shimane, this rare seaside house offers something incredibly hard to find in Japan: direct access to the ocean straight from your own garden. Sitting just steps from the water, this two story wooden home feels like a forgotten island escape, perfect for someone dreaming of a slow, creative life by the sea.

The house offers 96㎡ of living space on a 122㎡ plot and was built in 1969. While it needs cleaning and repairs, the structure is still there, full of character and potential. From the garden, you can fish, launch a small boat, or simply sit and watch the waves roll in.

Inside, the house is currently vacant but still filled with belongings, waiting for someone willing to bring it back to life. Utilities such as water, electricity, LPG gas, and sewage pumping are already connected, making renovations more realistic than starting from scratch.

This is the kind of property you buy for the lifestyle, not perfection. A true oceanfront home at this price is almost unheard of in Japan, making this one a rare opportunity for anyone dreaming of island living on a small budget 🌿.
