Spacious 6DK Wooden House on a Sunny Corner Lot in Sakai
According to the agent's notes, the property is equipped with a system kitchen, counter kitchen, IH cooktop, and a gas cooktop. Bathroom and toilet features include a reheating function for the bath, a bathroom dryer, a washbasin with a shower attachment, and a washlet toilet seat. Indoor amenities are comprehensive, featuring a walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, a door phone with a TV monitor, and underfloor heating. The property is highlighted as being all-electric, barrier-free, south-facing, and comes with a parking space. Other utilities and features include public water supply, city gas, sewer system, a dedicated bath, a dedicated toilet, an indoor space for a washing machine, and an independent washroom.
The layout is thoughtfully designed: the first floor contains the DK (dining-kitchen) and a Japanese-style room; the second floor has two Japanese-style rooms; and the third floor features two Western-style rooms. A key selling point is the abundant built-in storage throughout, which minimizes the need for additional furniture and allows for more efficient use of living space. The property is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk (approximately 400m) from Minato Station on the Nankai Main Line, providing direct access to Namba, Wakayama City, and Kansai International Airport. The station is noted to have barrier-free facilities such as an ostomate-accessible toilet and Braille guidance signs. The surrounding neighborhood is well-serviced, with a supermarket (Hinodeya Misaemae store) a 3-minute walk away and another shopping facility (Sun Plaza Sakai Shorinji-cho West store) within a 5-minute walk.
The area of Sakai is rich with history, famously known as the location of one of Japan's largest ancient burial mounds, the Nintoku-tenno-ryo Kofun (Daisenryo Kofun), a UNESCO World Heritage site. This massive keyhole-shaped tomb is a testament to the region's significance in early Japanese history. For a major tourist attraction, residents can easily visit the iconic Osaka Castle, a magnificent historic landmark approximately a 30-minute train ride away, offering beautiful grounds, a museum, and panoramic views of the city.
