Spacious 3DK with Dual Balconies in a Quiet Osaka Neighborhood
This charming detached house, built in 1974, offers a comfortable 3DK layout with a total floor area of 59.84 square meters on a 61.02 square meter plot. The property is located in a quiet residential area of Sakai City's Naka Ward, Osaka Prefecture, providing a peaceful living environment. A key feature is the dual-sided balcony, which ensures excellent cross-ventilation and natural light throughout the home. Every room benefits from two-sided windows, creating a bright and airy atmosphere that lifts the spirits.
The interior includes both Western and Japanese-style rooms, allowing for flexible use according to your preferences. The living and dining area can be connected to one of the Western rooms to create a larger space, perfect for entertaining family and friends. The wall-mounted kitchen is designed for focused cooking and features a window in front for brightness and easy ventilation. The bathroom also includes a window to prevent moisture and mold, while the separate toilet has its own window for odor control. A shower-equipped washbasin adds convenience for daily routines. Ample storage is provided throughout, including a walk-in closet, allowing you to keep family memories and belongings organized. The property comes with a free parking space, a boon for car owners.
The location is highly convenient for daily life. A supermarket (Co-op) is just a 2-minute walk away, with another (Konomiya) within a 7-minute walk, making grocery shopping effortless. For commuting, Nankai Koya Line's Hatsushiba Station is approximately a 20-minute walk. The area is also served by Higashimozu Elementary School (7-minute walk), a drugstore (KIRINDO, 13-minute walk), and Minamisakai Hospital (9-minute walk) for peace of mind. The agent notes that the property has a space for an indoor washing machine, which is gentler on the appliance, and utilizes relatively inexpensive and environmentally friendly city gas. The surrounding area has few tall buildings, offering a sense of openness.
The selling agent, Iestore Co., Ltd., emphasizes their flexible and supportive service. They are holding on-site viewing sessions and welcome same-day inquiries and viewings, even outside regular business hours. They also offer pick-up service from your home and provide comprehensive consultations on home buying, financing, loans, taxes, and related systems, making the process easier for first-time buyers.
The Sakai area is historically significant as the site of one of Japan's largest ancient burial mounds, the Nintoku-tenno-ryo Kofun (Daisen Kofun), a UNESCO World Heritage site. This massive keyhole-shaped tomb is a testament to the region's importance during the Kofun period and offers a unique glimpse into Japan's early history, located just a short drive from the property.
