Spacious 4LDK Family Home in Osaka's Suminoe Ward
This well-presented 4LDK detached house, built in 2008, offers a comfortable and functional living space ideal for families. Located just a 9-minute walk from Nankai Main Line's Sumiyoshi Taisha Station, the property provides excellent access for commuting and daily life. The surrounding area is well-equipped with supermarkets, convenience stores, and other essential amenities within walking distance, making it a convenient and livable neighborhood for all generations.
The property features a family-friendly layout with a key highlight being the open-plan, counter-style kitchen. This design allows for easy communication and supervision of children while cooking, creating a safe and connected family environment. The kitchen is equipped with a system kitchen, a dishwasher for efficient cleaning, and an IH cooktop. The living-dining-kitchen (LDK) area is located on the second floor, offering privacy and features wooden-look flooring that creates a soft, warm impression. It benefits from dual-aspect south and west-facing windows, ensuring excellent natural light and ventilation.
Accommodation includes four bedrooms and a versatile Japanese-style room (washitsu) on the first floor. The washitsu, with its traditional tatami mat flooring, can serve as a playroom, guest room, or a peaceful space for relaxation. All bedrooms are equipped with built-in storage, helping to keep the living spaces tidy and organized. Two of the bedrooms feature access to west-facing balconies, which are perfect for drying laundry or enjoying some fresh air. The property boasts a spacious bathroom with a deep soaking tub, perfect for relaxing family baths, and is fitted with a bathroom dryer for year-round comfort and heat shock prevention. Additional amenities include a large three-way mirror vanity unit with ample storage, a heated toilet seat, and a high-capacity shoe cabinet in the entryway.
A significant practical feature is the built-in garage, providing space for one car (subject to vehicle type), protecting it from the elements. The property underwent a renovation in October 2022, which included re-wallpapering, replacing sliding screen doors, and renewing finishes in the washroom and toilet. The front road is approximately 4.1 meters wide with no level difference from the plot, allowing for smooth vehicle access. Please note that the property is currently occupied, and the listed photos were taken at the time of purchase; the current condition takes precedence.
The area is rich in history and culture, being home to the famous Sumiyoshi Taisha, one of Japan's oldest Shinto shrines and the head shrine of all Sumiyoshi shrines in the country. Its unique architectural style, known as Sumiyoshi-zukuri, is designated as a National Treasure. This historic and spiritual landmark is just a short walk from the local station, adding a layer of cultural significance to the neighborhood.
