Renovated Family Home in Hokkaido's Quiet Town of Furen
This fully renovated detached house in Nayoro City, Hokkaido, offers a comfortable and modern living space ready for immediate move-in. The property has undergone a comprehensive renovation by the selling company, which is a publicly listed firm in a business and capital alliance with Nitori. The price includes consumption tax and all renovation costs, and the property is eligible for the housing loan tax deduction.
The renovation details are extensive. The exterior work included expanding the parking area and applying new coatings to the roof and exterior walls. Internally, the entire wet area has been replaced with new fixtures: a new system kitchen, a new unit bath, a new toilet with a warm-water washlet bidet seat, and a new vanity unit. The vanity faucet has an eco-friendly design that properly separates hot and cold water to prevent waste and save on gas costs. The living room was expanded by connecting it with a 6-tatami Japanese-style room, creating a bright, spacious area with south-facing windows. All rooms have had their wallpaper and flooring (cushion flooring) replaced, and lighting fixtures have been renewed throughout, including in the entrance hall, staircase, and closets. The staircase steps have been covered with cushion flooring and anti-slip strips installed. The electrical panel has been cleaned. The company provides a 2-year warranty covering the three major risks of used homes: roof leaks, defects or corrosion of major structural components, and water leakage or failure of water supply and drainage pipes.
Key features of the home include a family-friendly 3LDK layout with two rooms on the second floor. Storage is ample, with closets in every room, including a walk-in closet in a first-floor Western-style room. The parking space can accommodate three cars side-by-side, making it easy to park even for those less confident in driving. The property is situated on a quiet residential street with little traffic. The front of the house has ample space, which is convenient for disposing of snow in winter.
The location is in the Furen area of Nayoro City. An interesting fact about the wider Nayoro region is that it is sometimes called the "City of the Northern Sky" and is a renowned location for viewing the aurora borealis (Northern Lights) during the winter months, thanks to its northern latitude and clear skies. For outdoor enthusiasts, the area provides access to the vast wilderness of Hokkaido. The closest major tourist attraction is the picturesque Lake Tōya, a volcanic caldera lake and a UNESCO Global Geopark known for its hot springs and scenic beauty, located approximately a two-hour drive to the southwest.
