This property is a detached, two-story wooden house built in October 1968, located on a generous 350.00 sqm (approximately 105.87 tsubo) corner lot in Takikawa City, Hokkaido. The total floor area is a substantial 163.23 sqm (approximately 49.37 tsubo), offering a 6DK layout. The interior comprises five Japanese-style rooms (two at 6-jo, two at 6-jo, and one at 8-jo) and one Western-style room (6-jo). The property features two toilets. Special notes from the agent highlight that this house is suitable for multi-generational living (二世帯向き) and is situated on a corner lot (角地). The land is zoned as Category 1 Medium-to-High-Rise Exclusive Residential District, with a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 150%. The property is currently vacant and ready for immediate handover.
The corner lot provides excellent access and light, with road frontage of 12 meters to the east and 5 meters to the south. The terrain is flat, and the property rights are full ownership. The property is located in a quiet residential area within the non-line-delineated urban planning area of Takikawa. While the house presents a fantastic opportunity due to its size and lot, prospective buyers should note its age and consider potential renovation or inspection costs to tailor it to modern living standards.
The area of Takikawa is part of Hokkaido's Sorachi Subprefecture, known for its rich agricultural lands and natural beauty. An interesting local fact is that Takikawa is home to the Takikawa Swan Lake (滝川スワンレイク), a park where hundreds of whooper swans migrate to every winter, creating a spectacular natural scene. For a major tourist attraction, the vibrant city of Sapporo, famous for the Sapporo Snow Festival, Odori Park, and the historic Sapporo Clock Tower, is within a reasonable driving distance, offering extensive urban amenities and cultural experiences.
