Spacious Two-Story House with Garden and Parking in Urasoe's Maeda Area
This detached house for rent in Urasoe City's Maeda district offers a rare combination of space, convenience, and character. Located in a quiet, elevated area, the property features a generous floor plan of approximately 74.38 square meters (about 22.5 tsubo) arranged over two stories. The layout is a practical 2LDK, with separate Western-style rooms of 8.5 and 8.9 tatami mats and a large 15.5-mat living-dining-kitchen area. A significant advantage is the inclusion of a private garden, perfect for outdoor relaxation, and space for up to three vehicles with free parking.
The property is equipped with several key features. According to the agent's notes, the facilities include propane gas, a separate bath and toilet, closets, a shoe cupboard (getabako), a monitor-equipped intercom, and an indoor space for a washing machine. Prospective tenants should note the special remarks: the interior condition is prioritized as-is, and running costs should be compared and considered.

The house is situated within an approximate 5-minute walk from Maeda Elementary School, making it a convenient location for families.

The building, constructed in 1972 with a reinforced concrete (RCB) structure, is on two floors, with the living spaces located on the first floor. Immediate occupancy is possible, and the rental conditions are flexible, allowing for two or more occupants, not requiring a guarantor, and being open to consultation with seniors and room-sharing arrangements.
The Maeda area in Urasoe is a peaceful residential neighborhood known for its views and community atmosphere. An interesting local fact is that Urasoe City was once the capital of the Ryukyu Kingdom before it moved to Shuri. The area offers a blend of suburban calm with easy access to urban amenities. For recreation and culture, residents are within a reasonable distance of major attractions like the Okinawa Prefectural Museum & Art Museum and the scenic views from the Urasoe Castle Park ruins, a historic site with panoramic vistas of the coast.
