Spacious Renovated Single-Story Home with Workshop in Kitana
This unique property in Kitana, Okinawa, offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial 4LDK home with a coveted workshop, known locally as a "foreigner's house" or "外人住宅." The house has undergone a large-scale renovation and is reported to be in excellent maintenance condition. The property sits on a generous 147.92 tsubo (approximately 488.98 square meters) plot of land, which is owned outright, not leasehold.
Key features translated from the agent's notes include an indoor washing machine space (室内洗濯機置き場). The roof has been treated with waterproof coating (屋根は防水塗装済みです). The current status is vacant (現況: 空き家). A notable highlight is the wide spacing between this building and the neighboring structure, providing extra privacy and light (隣の建物との間隔が広い).
The home boasts a total floor area of 195.65 square meters. The layout includes four Western-style rooms, a living-dining-kitchen area, and a separate independent kitchen measuring approximately 6.3 tatami mats. Each room features built-in storage. Additional amenities include two toilets, a bathtub, air conditioning, a walk-in closet, a garden, and parking for three to four vehicles. The property also offers scenic views of the ocean and excellent sunlight.
The area of Kitana is part of the dynamic central region of Okinawa's main island. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Ryukyu Mura cultural theme park offers immersive experiences into traditional Okinawan crafts, music, and architecture, preserving the unique Ryukyuan heritage. The closest major landmark is the popular Rycom (Ryukyu Commemorative National Government Park), a vast park and event complex.
