Spacious 4LDK Family Home in Kawagoe with Sumitomo Forestry Construction
This substantial property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious 4LDK detached house in the historic city of Kawagoe, Saitama Prefecture. Built by the renowned Sumitomo Forestry in July 1997, the home offers a generous total floor area of approximately 150 square meters, providing ample space for family living across its two stories. The layout is designed for comfort and functionality, featuring a living-dining-kitchen area and four separate rooms.
The property sits on a sizable plot of land measuring approximately 296 square meters, offering significant outdoor space. A notable feature is that access to the property is available from the waterway on the east side of the land. However, a critical special note must be highlighted: the target property does not fulfill the road frontage obligation stipulated by the Building Standards Act. Consequently, new construction, extensions, or structural alterations to the building are not permitted. It is important to note that this restriction does not apply to cases where permission has been granted by the specific administrative agency based on the provisions of Article 43, Paragraph 2, Item 2 of the Building Standards Act, having obtained the agreement of the Building Review Board. Other equipment and utilities include public water supply, main sewerage, and city gas. Parking is provided via a carport.
The location offers excellent connectivity, being a 20-minute walk from "Kawagoe-shi" station on the Tobu Tojo Line and a 23-minute walk from "Hon-Kawagoe" station on the Seibu Shinjuku Line, providing direct access to central Tokyo. The area is rich in culture and history, famously known as "Little Edo" for its beautifully preserved traditional warehouse buildings and a charming old-town atmosphere. A major landmark and must-visit attraction is the iconic Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine, renowned for its enchanting tunnel of colorful wind chimes and as a popular spot for prayers regarding relationships and marriage.
