This property is a renovated Sekisui Heim lightweight steel construction house located in Kobe's Tarumi Ward, a 20-minute walk from Nishimaiko Station on the Sanyo Electric Railway Main Line. The home features a monitor-equipped doorphone for secure visitor screening and a convenient system kitchen that integrates storage and work areas, designed for easy cleaning and maintenance. It is also equipped with an IH cooking hob, which is easy to clean and helps prevent excessive heat buildup in the kitchen during summer.

The bathroom and washbasin faucets were also replaced. Key equipment includes a system kitchen, counter kitchen, IH hob, bath reheating function, bathroom dryer, washbasin with shower, bidet toilet seat, walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, TV monitor doorphone, and underfloor heating. Notable features are all-electric power, barrier-free design, south-facing orientation, and included parking. Other listed facilities are city gas, sewer system, hot water supply, indoor washing machine space, balcony, and an independent washroom. The property is situated on a regular-shaped plot.
The surrounding area offers daily convenience with a convenience store within a 390-meter (5-minute walk) radius. The property is positioned in a quiet residential neighborhood of Tarumi Ward, known for its blend of suburban calm and accessibility to the vibrant city of Kobe. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Maiko Park area is famous for its views of the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, the world's longest suspension bridge. The closest major tourist attraction is the scenic Maiko Park and the Maiko Marine Promenade, which offer stunning panoramic vistas of the bridge and Osaka Bay.
