Spacious Modern Home in a Prime Corner Location in Himeji
This recently constructed detached house, built in November 2024, offers a rare opportunity to acquire a nearly new, custom-built home in Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture. The property is situated on a spacious corner lot, providing excellent natural light and a sense of openness. The interior is designed around a family-friendly layout, featuring a generous 17.5-jo (approximately 29.5 sqm) combined living, dining, and kitchen area with a staircase integrated into the living space, naturally encouraging family interaction.
The home is equipped with a comprehensive range of modern amenities. The kitchen features a system kitchen with a counter and an IH cooktop, which is easy to clean and helps keep the room temperature comfortable during summer cooking. The property is fully electric (All-Electric), eliminating the need for gas for cooking and hot water, thereby reducing fire risks. Other notable equipment includes a bath with a reheating function, a bathroom dryer, a washbasin with a shower attachment, a heated toilet seat, underfloor heating, and a TV monitor-equipped doorphone for secure and convenient visitor screening. Storage is well-considered throughout, with a walk-in closet and storage in all rooms, plus a pantry.
Special features of the property include its barrier-free design, south-facing orientation, and the inclusion of a parking space for two vehicles at no extra cost. The land is a corner plot with road frontage on two sides. The property is located within a 16-minute walk from Harima-Katsuhara Station on the JR San-yo Main Line, offering rail access. The area is well-served by daily conveniences, with several supermarkets and shops nearby, including a MaxValu, Welcia, and Aeon Mall Himeji Otsu.
The surrounding area of Himeji is rich in history and culture, dominated by its magnificent UNESCO World Heritage site, Himeji Castle. Often called the "White Heron Castle" for its elegant white plastered walls and graceful appearance, it is considered Japan's most spectacular surviving feudal castle. The property offers a perfect base from which to explore this iconic landmark and the vibrant city that surrounds it.
