Renovated Home with Integrated Garage in Niigata's Akiha Ward
This two-storey wooden detached house, located in the Yashiroda area of Niigata City's Akiha Ward, is currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation. The property offers a 4LDK layout with a total floor area of 196.95 square meters on a 206.12 square meter plot. The building was constructed in October 1989.
The renovation includes extensive interior and exterior work. The exterior walls have been painted, and the parking area will receive a concrete floor finish. Inside, the living room features new flooring, and both the ceiling and wall coverings have been replaced, with accent wallpaper adding a stylish touch. A notable feature is the creation of an indoor garage, converted from a former room, providing secure storage for vehicles or motorcycles. The garage is equipped with a shutter and will also have a concrete floor. The first-floor Japanese-style room and dining area are being combined to create this large garage space. The first-floor Japanese-style room is also being renovated into a living-dining-kitchen area, with new flooring and wallpaper, and large windows to ensure natural light. On the second floor, there is a southwest-facing balcony, ideal for drying laundry. The entrance door has been replaced, and some exterior wall sections have been renewed. The bathroom has been upgraded with a new unit bath, and the vanity unit is also new. The kitchen has been replaced with a new model from Housetec, featuring a three-burner gas stove and a pendant light, and its face-to-face design allows for easy supervision of children while cooking. The water heater and switch panels are also being replaced. Some lighting fixtures will be recessed downlights.
The property is covered by a two-year warranty against the three major risks of used homes: leaks, structural defects or corrosion, and water pipe leaks or failures. The renovation included an inspection under the floor, termite damage investigation, and preventive treatment. The termite control work comes with a five-year warranty and two free inspections. The property is located a 6-minute walk (450 meters) from Yashiroda Station on the JR East Shinetsu Main Line. The surrounding area includes a FamilyMart convenience store an 11-minute walk away.
