Spacious 4DK House with Garden in a Quiet Himeji Neighborhood
This property is a 4DK detached house located in a quiet residential area of Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. It offers a comfortable living space with a total floor area of 98.07 square meters on a generous 167.52 square meter plot of land. The house was built in February 1979 by the reputable construction company Daiwa House. The property is conveniently situated just a 12-minute walk from JR Bantan Line's Nihono Station, providing easy access to the wider region.
According to the agent's notes, the house features a monitor-equipped doorphone for secure visitor screening and uses propane gas, which offers strong flame power for efficient bathing and cooking, as well as quicker recovery in the event of a disaster. There is also a designated indoor space for a washing machine, which helps prolong the appliance's lifespan. The layout consists of five rooms, with the largest being an 8-tatami mat Japanese-style room. The property includes a dedicated garden and a free carport for one vehicle.
Key equipment and features include a system kitchen, counter kitchen, IH cooktop, gas cooktop, bath with reheating function, bathroom dryer, washbasin with shower, bidet toilet seat, walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, TV monitor doorphone, and underfloor heating. Other notable features are an all-electric system, barrier-free design, south-facing orientation, and parking availability. The property also has public water supply, a dedicated bath and toilet, hot water supply, air conditioning, a dedicated garden, flooring, a separate washroom, and lighting fixtures included.
Special notes from the agent highlight several important points: the seller disclaims liability for contract non-conformities; chattels will be disposed of by the seller; vehicle type restrictions need to be confirmed; as it falls under the old Building Standards Act, reconstruction is not permitted; there is an unregistered extension on the north side of the second floor (an 8-tatami Western-style room) beyond the stated floor area—registration of this extension, if required, is at the buyer's expense; and the property boundaries are not clearly marked.
The surrounding area offers daily conveniences, with a convenience store within a 10-minute walk (740 meters) and a supermarket approximately 2,400 meters away. The neighborhood is part of the historic Himeji region, famous for Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most spectacular and well-preserved feudal castles, located roughly 12 kilometers to the southeast. This area offers a peaceful residential lifestyle while remaining within reach of one of the country's most significant cultural landmarks.
