Spacious 5LDK Family Home with Second-Floor Living in Ibaraki City
This well-presented detached house in Ibaraki City's Gun 4-chome offers a spacious and bright living environment perfect for family life. The property features a generous total floor area of 119.63 square meters arranged in a 5LDK layout, with the unique advantage of a second-floor living, dining, and kitchen area. This design provides enhanced privacy and minimizes concerns about external visibility. Every room in the house is a minimum of 6 tatami mats in size, ensuring ample space for all family members.
Key equipment and features have been translated from the agent's notes. The home comes with a system kitchen featuring a countertop, an IH cooktop, and a gas cooktop. The bathroom includes a reheating function and a dryer. Other notable indoor amenities are a walk-in closet, storage in every room on the first and third floors, a TV monitor intercom, and underfloor heating. The property is all-electric, barrier-free, south-facing, and includes a parking space. Additional equipment includes a separate bath and toilet, a balcony, a counter kitchen, closets, a shoe cupboard, and two or more toilets. A critical feature is that all rooms benefit from two-sided natural light, making the interior exceptionally bright and well-ventilated.
Significant partial renovations were completed in February 2026. This work included the replacement of the IH cooktop, intercom, and washlet toilet seats, as well as re-papering of walls and ceilings, replacement of tatami mat surfaces, and re-covering of fusuma sliding doors. Security is a priority, with a double-lock door and a TV intercom system installed. The property sits on a plot of approximately 30 tsubo (about 99 square meters) and includes parking space for two vehicles (subject to vehicle type). Its location near National Route 171 and the Ibaraki Interchange makes travel by car very convenient.
The surrounding area of Ibaraki City is a vibrant mix of residential and commercial activity. An interesting fact about Ibaraki is that it is home to one of Japan's most famous modern architectural landmarks, the Church of the Light designed by the renowned architect Tadao Ando. This iconic concrete structure, with its striking cross of light, is a major draw for architecture enthusiasts from around the world. The property itself is situated in a practical neighborhood, within walking distance of Gun Elementary School (11 minutes), Nishi Junior High School (21 minutes), and the Al Plaza Ibaraki shopping mall (12 minutes). The 'Gun' bus stop is just a 2-minute walk away, providing smooth access to both JR Ibaraki Station and Hankyu Ibarakishi Station.
