Spacious Renovated Family Home in Niigata's Nishikan Ward
This charming two-story house, built in 1956 with an extension in 1966, offers a fantastic opportunity for comfortable family living in Niigata's Nishikan Ward. The property features a generous 4LDK layout with a total floor area of 156.88 square meters on a 164.12 square meter plot of land. A key highlight is the comprehensive renovation of all wet areas (kitchen, bathroom, washbasin, and toilet) completed in 2023, ensuring modern convenience and style.
The home is designed for practicality and ease. It boasts an independent kitchen to prevent cooking odors from spreading to the living area, and a smart, centralized wet area layout for efficient household chores. The 23-tatami mat LDK (living-dining-kitchen) is spacious and can be partitioned if desired. The property includes two 8-tatami Japanese-style rooms and a 7.5-tatami Western-style room, providing ample space for family and guests. A unique feature is the first-floor Japanese room, which connects to both the hallway and the living room, offering a versatile two-way entrance perfect for hosting visitors. The home is also equipped with abundant storage, including living room storage, and a wireless monitor system for security that allows you to respond to visitors from anywhere in the house. The water heater is a Noritz unit manufactured in 2022.
Location is a major advantage. JR Echigo-Sone Station is just a 7-minute walk away, and National Route 116 offers excellent access for convenient commuting. Daily necessities are close at hand with a supermarket just a 4-minute drive and convenience stores within a 5-10 minute walk. The property is also within walking distance of Sone Elementary School (7 minutes) and Kawanishi Junior High School (13 minutes). The agent notes that this information will be automatically reflected in other inquiries for 30 minutes before being discarded, and this feature is only available for some properties.
The surrounding Nishikan area is known for its peaceful residential atmosphere and proximity to natural beauty. An interesting local fact is that the region is famous for its high-quality Koshihikari rice and sake production, thanks to the pristine water from the surrounding mountains and snowmelt. For a major tourist attraction, residents can easily visit the historic Iwamuro Onsen, a hot spring town within the ward known for its therapeutic waters and traditional ryokan, offering a perfect escape for relaxation.
