This well-maintained apartment offers comfortable living in a peaceful residential area of Kano Town, Gifu Prefecture. The property features a 2K layout with two separate Western-style rooms, measuring 6-tatami and 4.5-tatami respectively, providing ample space for living and sleeping areas. The total private floor area is 33.54 sqm (approximately 10.14 tsubo). The unit is located on the 2nd floor of a 5-story reinforced concrete (RC) building constructed in March 1972. A key feature is the south-facing balcony, measuring 3.3 sqm, which ensures excellent natural light throughout the day.
The apartment comes with essential equipment including a separate bath and toilet, a shower, an independent washbasin area, a space for a washing machine, and uses propane gas.

Special notes and remarks from the agent highlight that the main source of natural light is the south-facing balcony, which residents can fully utilize. The agent also remarks that one grows more attached to the building's appearance over time. Regarding the floor plan, it is noted that the Western-style rooms are easy to live in when considering the placement of one's own furniture. The kitchen is described as comfortable, making time at home enjoyable. Interestingly, the toilet is highlighted as a hidden checkpoint for a "property you'd want to live in." The contract period is 2 years with a free renewal fee (no renewal charge). A rental guarantee is required, and credit card payments are accepted. Smoking is not permitted in the unit.
The surrounding area of Kano Town offers a tranquil lifestyle while maintaining good access to daily necessities. An interesting local fact is that Gifu Prefecture is renowned for its traditional cormorant fishing (Ukai) on the Nagara River, a practice dating back over 1,300 years. The closest major tourist attraction is the historic Gifu Castle, perched atop Mount Kinka and offering panoramic views of the city and the Nagara River below, accessible from central Gifu City.
