Completely Renovated Family Home in Himeji with Comprehensive Warranty
This fully renovated detached house in Himeji's Kamiohno district offers a move-in-ready solution with significant peace of mind. The property has undergone a complete interior and exterior renovation, including the replacement of all walls, ceilings, and flooring. Key systems such as the plumbing, lighting, water heater, and intercom have all been newly installed. The renovation was comprehensive, ensuring every aspect of the home is modern and functional.
The kitchen is a highlight, featuring a new system kitchen with a dishwasher. The kitchen panels are made of a durable, easy-to-clean material resistant to burns, scratches, and grease—simply wipe clean with water. It includes a three-burner gas hob for efficient cooking. The spacious 20-jo (approx. 33 sqm) LDK benefits from three-sided windows, filling the living area with natural light and creating an open, airy atmosphere. A new air conditioner is installed here.
The bathroom is equipped with a seismic resistance system capable of withstanding earthquakes up to a seismic intensity of 6+, and features a heat-retaining bath and tub for year-round comfort. The enameled wall material resists moisture, mold, damage, and corrosion, making cleaning easy. It also allows magnets to stick, enabling shampoo bottles and bath stools to be stored cleanly off the floor. The separate washroom has a new three-sided mirror vanity with storage behind the mirrors. The toilet is new and includes a bidet function with warm water washing.
Other notable features include a new monitor-equipped intercom for security, allowing you to see visitors from the living room. The entrance hall has a new U-shaped shoe cabinet that can also display small items and provides a place to steady yourself when putting on or taking off shoes. The entrance door is a high-security double-lock door, and the entrance tiles have been repaired. The south-facing balcony has been repainted. Ample storage is provided throughout, including a new walk-in closet in the 8-jo second-floor Western-style room with a hanging rail, a two-tier closet in the 6-jo Eastern room, and under-stair storage in the living room. The property qualifies as an "Anshin R Jutaku" (安心R住宅), meaning it meets national standards for seismic safety and defect requirements for existing homes. It has also passed a rigorous post-renovation building inspection covering the foundation, pillars, floor inclination, and areas from under the floor to the attic and exterior.
Critically, the sale includes a 5-year, 10 million yen defect liability insurance policy (kashi hoken), providing significant post-move-in security. The property also features a label indicating its energy-saving performance under a national system. Two parking spaces are available on the premises. The agent notes that with the use of their affiliated financial institution's housing loan, it's possible to purchase with an initial cost of just 100,000 yen.
The property is located in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. The area is rich in history, being home to the magnificent Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most iconic and pristine surviving feudal castles. The residence is approximately a 14-minute bicycle ride from JR Harima Line's Norinosato Station or a 4-minute walk from the Shinki Bus "Daijudai" stop, offering convenient access to the wider region.
