Renovated 3LDK House in a Quiet Himeji Neighborhood
This fully renovated single-family home in Himeji's Hirohata Ward offers a move-in-ready living experience with comprehensive updates and peace-of-mind guarantees. The property features a 3LDK layout with a bright, south-facing living room, originally converted from a Japanese-style room to create a spacious, modern living area. The entire interior has been refreshed with new flooring overlay, wall coverings, and lighting fixtures throughout.
The kitchen has been completely replaced with a new system kitchen featuring a three-burner gas stove and a sink with a filtered water shower function, making meal preparation efficient and enjoyable. A new storage space has been added next to the kitchen for pantry items. The bathroom has been upgraded to a new, larger one-tsubo (approx. 1.6x1.6m) unit bath, allowing for a more comfortable bathing experience. The separate toilet and washroom have also been fitted with new fixtures, including a washbasin with a three-sided mirror and hidden storage. The entrance features a new shoe cabinet.
Externally, the property benefits from recent renovations including roof and exterior wall painting. The parking area has been improved by removing the carport and garden, and widening the space by removing landscaping, allowing for easier parking for up to two standard cars or one standard and two compact cars. The agent notes highlight key features: public water supply, city gas, sewer system, separate bath and toilet, gas stove, system kitchen, hot water supply with re-heating function, shower-equipped washbasin, underfloor storage, flooring, TV doorphone, heated toilet seat, independent washroom, bathroom size of 1-tsubo or larger, lighting fixtures included, defect warranty (by the real estate company), water purifier/activator, water-saving toilet, energy-saving water heater, all rooms with flooring, and flat parking space.
Critically, the property comes with significant warranties. The three major risks of used homes—roof leaks, defects/corrosion of major structural parts, and water supply/drainage pipe leaks/failures—are covered by a 2-year guarantee from the delivery date. Furthermore, a termite prevention treatment with a 5-year guarantee (from the construction date, for the treated areas only by the construction company) has been conducted after a thorough inspection, including under the floor.
Located in a quiet residential area with little traffic in Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture, the area is known for its historical significance as the home of Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most spectacular original castles. The property is situated for a balanced lifestyle, offering suburban tranquility with access to the iconic landmark approximately 7.2km away.
