Renovated Family Home in Kanazawa's Shijimadai District
This fully renovated two-story wooden house, built in 1986, offers a move-in-ready 3LDK layout in the peaceful Shijimadai area of Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture. The property has undergone a comprehensive renovation, transforming it into a modern and comfortable living space. The existing Japanese-style room, living room, and kitchen were combined to create a single, spacious LDK area. The living space is enhanced by dark accent wallpaper, creating a three-dimensional effect. All ceilings and walls have been re-papered, and floors have been overlaid with new flooring or cushion flooring, resulting in bright, white-toned hallways and rooms.
The renovation included a complete overhaul of all wet areas. The kitchen was replaced with a new LIXIL system kitchen featuring a sink designed for easy cleaning. The bathroom was updated with a new Hau-stec unit bath, and the toilet was exchanged for a Janis model with a warm-water washing function and easy-to-clean surfaces. The washbasin was newly installed with a Panasonic AWE washbasin, hair-washing, and makeup counter. The entrance door was replaced with a new LIXIL product, complete with new locks, and the shoe cabinet is also new. Externally, the roof and exterior walls have been repainted.
Key features include a south-facing orientation, a carport allowing parking for two standard vehicles, a sunroom on the north side of the living room ideal for drying laundry, and a balcony above the carport. The property also includes a storage shed and a tire rack in the parking area, and the backyard has been cleared of plantings for a tidy appearance. Security is provided by a TV monitor-equipped doorphone. The property is eligible for the housing loan tax reduction, and the price includes consumption tax and all renovation costs.
The seller provides a 2-year warranty covering the three major risks of used homes: roof leaks, defects or corrosion in major structural components, and water supply/drainage pipe leaks or failures. A separate 5-year warranty with two free inspections covers the termite prevention work. The location offers a family-friendly environment, with Shijimadai Elementary School approximately 650m away and Nodachi Junior High School about 450m away. The area is rich in culture, being part of Kanazawa City, a historical center famous for its well-preserved Edo-era districts, exquisite gardens like Kenrokuen, and traditional crafts. A major nearby landmark is the iconic Kenrokuen Garden, one of Japan's Three Great Gardens, located within a short drive or bus ride from the property.
