Spacious Family Home in Kakogawa with Flexible Layout and Generous Parking
This well-maintained single-family home, built in 2012, presents a compelling opportunity in the desirable area of Kakogawa City, Hyogo Prefecture. The property features a generous 4LDK layout spanning 86.73 square meters, thoughtfully designed on a substantial 234.34 square meter plot of land. The current layout offers flexibility, as the design allows for the configuration to be easily changed from a 3LDK to a 4LDK to suit the new owner's needs, providing adaptable living spaces for a growing family or for those who work from home.
The property's equipment includes a modern and functional kitchen with an IH cooktop and a convenient counter-style layout. Storage is ample throughout the home, with built-in storage in all living rooms and closets. A balcony provides outdoor space, and the home is connected to public water and sewer systems. A significant feature is the parking arrangement, which includes space for three vehicles, two of which are under a carport. The seller notes that the parking area can be widened further with some simple construction work.
According to the agent's special notes, the property is currently vacant. The remarks state: "Akiya (Vacant House). If you would like to see it in person for free, please feel free to contact us with your desired date." An additional note clarifies the viewing arrangements: "※ Internal viewings are scheduled to be available after September. Only on-site confirmation is possible at this time." The seller is also facilitating a smooth transition by handling partial renovations before the handover, which is available immediately.
The location in Hiraokacho Nakano is both practical and family-friendly. The local elementary and junior high schools, Hiraoka Minami Elementary and Junior High School, are just a 270-meter walk away, making the school run incredibly convenient. For transportation, Befu Station on the Sanyo Electric Railway Main Line is a 15-minute walk, providing a direct link to the wider Kobe and Osaka metropolitan areas.
The surrounding area of Kakogawa offers a pleasant blend of suburban comfort and accessibility. An interesting local fact is that Kakogawa City is known for its rich history in brick production during the Meiji era, contributing significantly to Japan's early industrial architecture. The closest major landmark is the Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most beautiful and iconic original castles, located approximately a 30-minute drive or train ride away. This home offers a perfect base for families seeking space, flexibility, and a connection to both community and the greater cultural treasures of the Hyogo region.
