This well-maintained two-story wooden house, built in February 1970, offers a generous 113.52 square meters of living space across a 6DK layout, situated on a 188.02 square meter plot of land.

The bathroom includes a reheating function (追い焚き) for a constant supply of warm water, a bath dryer, and a washbasin with a shower attachment. The toilet features a washlet bidet seat. Indoor amenities include a walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor-equipped doorphone, and underfloor heating. The property faces a southeast-facing road, ensuring excellent sunlight. Other notable features include being barrier-free and coming with a parking space for one vehicle. Utilities include public water supply, propane gas (which offers strong火力 for quick bath heating and cooking, as well as faster disaster recovery), and a sewer system.
Located in the Higashihata Ward of Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture, the area provides convenient daily living. The Yamada Store Shin-Aoyama shop is just a 4-minute walk away for grocery shopping, with other supermarkets and a pharmacy also nearby. The property is approximately a 31-minute walk from Yobe Station on the JR Himeshin Line. For those seeking a connection to major transit hubs, Himeji Station on the JR Sanyo Main Line is accessible by bus.
The surrounding region of Hyogo is rich in history and natural beauty. Himeji City is famously home to Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most spectacular and well-preserved feudal castles, often referred to as the "White Heron Castle" due to its elegant white appearance. A fascinating fact about the area is that Himeji Castle survived the bombings of World War II and the Great Hanshin earthquake of 1995, standing as a testament to exceptional Japanese craftsmanship and resilience.
