A Spacious Family Home in Honbetsu, Hokkaido
This substantial detached house, located at 9-2 Kita 4-chome in Honbetsu Town, offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Hokkaido's spacious living. Built in 1977, the property presents a generous 5LDK layout, providing ample room for a large family or those who value expansive living areas. The total floor area is a comfortable 123.93 square meters (approximately 37.4 tsubo), situated on a generous land plot of 198.34 square meters designated as residential land.
The property's equipment and features have been well-maintained, with a recent history of renovations. According to the agent's notes, the roof and boiler have been refurbished, ensuring key structural and utility components are in good order. A significant feature of the home is its central heating system, a valuable asset for the cold Hokkaido winters. The room breakdown is detailed and spacious, consisting of a 10-jo Western-style room, an 8-jo Japanese-style room, another 8-jo Western-style room, a 6-jo Japanese-style room, a 4.5-jo Japanese-style room, a 7.5-jo Japanese-style room, and a large 10-jo kitchen. The home also includes a bath, toilet, and a dedicated boiler room. The property includes a parking garage with space for one vehicle.
Having become vacant in June 2023, this akiya (vacant house) is ready for a new owner to put their own stamp on it. The combination of both Western and Japanese-style rooms offers flexibility in living arrangements and decor. The large kitchen is a highlight for those who enjoy cooking and entertaining. The presence of central heating and a recently replaced boiler indicates a home that has been updated for modern comfort and efficiency, despite its age.
Honbetsu Town is situated in the Tokachi region of Hokkaido, an area renowned for its vast agricultural plains and stunning natural beauty. The region is a major producer of high-quality potatoes and red beans, which are key ingredients in many Japanese sweets. A major landmark and tourist attraction within a reasonable distance is the Tokachi Millennium Forest, a vast nature park that blends art, gardening, and conservation, offering breathtaking views and seasonal activities for visitors throughout the year.
