Renovated 2LDK Home in Kobe's Nagata Ward
This charming two-story wooden house, built in 1925, has been thoughtfully renovated to offer modern comfort while retaining its character. Located in the Hosoda-cho 3-chome area of Kobe's Nagata Ward, the property underwent a comprehensive design renovation completed in December 2025 (Reiwa 7). This renovation included a full interior overhaul of floors, walls, ceilings, and fixtures, as well as updates to the kitchen, bathroom, and toilet. Essential exterior work has also been completed, including exterior wall painting, waterproofing, and plumbing repairs.
The home features a 2LDK layout with a total floor area of 60.37 square meters. Key equipment includes a system kitchen with a counter, an IH cooktop, a bathroom with a bath heater and dryer, a shower-equipped vanity, a washlet toilet, and underfloor heating. For security and convenience, a TV monitor doorphone is installed. The property is also equipped with a walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, a balcony, and dedicated parking and bicycle parking spaces. Notable features include an all-electric system, barrier-free design, a south-facing orientation, and a parking space.
The location is exceptionally convenient, with three different train lines accessible within a 10-minute walk, including Shin-Nagata Station on the JR Sanyo Main Line (8 minutes) and Nishidai Station on the Sanyo Electric Railway Main Line (7 minutes). The neighborhood is well-served by numerous supermarkets, ensuring shopping is easy, and a convenience store is just a 2-minute walk away. The area is also family-friendly, with elementary and junior high schools located nearby for easy commutes.
The surrounding Nagata Ward is a vibrant part of Kobe, known for its local atmosphere and community spirit. An interesting historical fact about the area is its deep connection to the city's recovery and revitalization following the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake in 1995, symbolizing resilience. For recreation and culture, residents are within easy reach of major attractions such as the Noevir Stadium Kobe, home to the popular Vissel Kobe football team, and the historic Nagata Shrine, one of the oldest Shinto shrines in the city.
