Spacious Traditional Home with Japanese Garden in Himeji
This property presents a rare opportunity to own a spacious traditional Japanese home set on a generous 606.54 sqm plot in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. The house, built in 1967, features a classic Japanese exterior that blends harmoniously with the neighborhood and offers a sense of openness and freedom. The expansive frontage allows for parking of two or more vehicles.
The interior boasts a generous 7DK layout centered around Japanese-style rooms (washitsu), many of which are connected, creating a flowing, open atmosphere. This design is ideal for multi-generational living or for dedicating rooms to hobbies. The home is well-equipped with ample storage and utility spaces, ensuring practical and comfortable living. The connected tatami rooms feature a tokonoma (alcove) and fittings with a refined aesthetic, offering a space of calm and dignity perfect for receiving guests or gatherings.
The bright dining-kitchen, approximately 5.25 tatami mats in size, features a window and offers a wide workspace with plentiful storage, making daily chores efficient. The bathroom is also windowed for brightness and ventilation, equipped with handrails for safety, and features retro tiles that add character. The water areas are user-friendly with separate washroom and bathing areas, both bright with windows. The property includes two toilets; one is windowed with a handrail, and another features both a hand basin and a urinal, providing practical separation for guests or large families.
A key feature is the meticulously maintained, authentic Japanese garden. Residents can enjoy the changing seasons and find moments of peace right at home. The garden also frames beautiful evening views of the sky and mountain ranges, offering daily serenity. The property's ample grounds create an open atmosphere where the house and garden feel integrated, providing a sense of vast sky and the relaxed enjoyment of countryside living. The home is currently vacant and ready for immediate handover.
