Renovated 5LDK Family Home in Kushiro, Hokkaido
This spacious two-story house, located in the Mihara district of Kushiro City, Hokkaido, is currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation to create a modern and comfortable living space. The property is a 5LDK layout, with two traditional Japanese rooms on the first floor being converted to Western-style rooms, joining three existing Western-style rooms on the second floor. This configuration provides five independent rooms, ideal for use as bedrooms, home offices, or study rooms for children.
The renovation includes extensive updates throughout. All ceilings and walls are being re-papered, and floors are being replaced with cushioned flooring. Lighting fixtures are being swapped for new ones. The first-floor living, dining, and kitchen area is approximately 22 tatami mats in size, receiving new flooring, wallpaper, and lighting to create a bright, family-friendly space. The kitchen is being newly installed and is notably wide at approximately 255cm, featuring a system kitchen layout, a 3-burner gas cooktop, a grill, and a 74cm-wide sink. The unit bath and toilet are also being replaced with brand-new fixtures, including a bath spacious enough for an adult to stretch out and a toilet seat with temperature adjustment. The entrance door is being replaced, and a new shoe cabinet from Sumitomo Forestry will be installed in the entry hall.
The property sits on a corner lot with road frontage on two sides. Part of the existing fence is being dismantled to expand the parking area, which will accommodate up to three vehicles, including a built-in garage with an electric shutter. The house is equipped with public water, city gas, and sewer systems. The listing agent notes that their staff can assist with bank procedures for busy clients.
The location offers convenient access to daily amenities. Co-op Sapporo Akebono Store supermarket is a 6-minute walk (460m) away, and a Seicomart convenience store is a 10-minute walk (800m). Mihara Elementary School is a 9-minute walk (700m), and Mihara Junior High School is a 14-minute walk (1060m).
