Spacious Modern Home with Dual Parking and Recent Upgrades in Kobe
This well-maintained detached house, built in 2007, offers a comfortable 2SLDK layout with a total floor area of 91.91㎡ on a 100.00㎡ plot in Kobe's Nishi Ward. The property is currently vacant and ready for immediate occupancy, presenting an excellent opportunity for homebuyers seeking a move-in ready residence with ample space for a family.
The home has benefitted from significant maintenance and upgrades. The water systems were renovated in November 2019, including the installation of a new EcoCute heat pump water heater for efficient hot water supply. Exterior work was completed in May 2021, covering the roof and outer walls, ensuring the structure remains in excellent condition. Key features include a system kitchen with integrated storage, a bathroom equipped with a dryer (ideal for drying laundry on rainy days and for post-bathroom ventilation), and a shower-equipped vanity. The property is all-electric and includes underfloor heating, a TV monitor intercom, and a walk-in closet. Other notable equipment includes public water supply, city gas, sewer system, a dedicated bath and toilet, a three-burner gas cooktop, a system kitchen with hot water and re-heating function, underfloor storage, a balcony, flooring throughout, a warm-water washlet toilet, an independent washroom, a bathroom sized over 1坪 (approx. 1.6m x 1.6m), closets, a shoe cupboard, and lighting fixtures. It also holds both Flat 35 and seismic standard compliance certificates.
A major advantage is the capacity for parallel parking for two or more vehicles, providing convenience for families and guests alike. The property is situated in a quiet, south-facing location. The surrounding area is practical, with a convenience store within a 430-meter (6-minute walk) radius, and supermarkets, hospitals, parks, drugstores, and banks all within easy reach. The location offers good access via the JR Sanyo Main Line from Akashi Station, with a 15-minute bus ride followed by a 5-minute walk from the Takatsuhashi stop.
The Kobe area is rich with cultural and recreational attractions. A short drive away is the iconic Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, the world's longest central span suspension bridge, offering spectacular views and a dedicated museum. The vibrant port city of Kobe itself is renowned for its scenic mountainside setting, delicious Kobe beef, and the historic Kitano district with its preserved foreign residences.
