Spacious and Modern 3SLDK Home in Otaru, Hokkaido
This well-maintained detached house, built in September 2010, offers a comfortable and functional living space in Otaru's Saijo 2-chome district. The property is situated on a corner lot, providing ample distance from neighboring homes and a sense of privacy. The house features a 3SLDK layout with a total floor area of 110.13 sqm.
The first floor centers around a spacious, approximately 23-jo LDK (living, dining, kitchen area). This area utilizes a skip-floor design, creating a sense of separation between the dining and living spaces while maintaining an open feel. Large windows and warm white lighting contribute to a bright and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen is a highlight, featuring a peninsula-style counter that allows for interaction with the family. It is equipped with an IH cooktop for easy cleaning, a dishwasher to reduce household chores, and abundant storage for cookware and pantry items.
Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms and a walk-in closet. The south-west facing Western-style room is approximately 5.3 jo and includes a closet, while the south-east facing room is about 6 jo and also has built-in storage. The largest bedroom, facing north-east, is approximately 8 jo and boasts both a standard closet and a spacious walk-in closet with shelving on three sides. A dedicated desk space in the second-floor hallway provides an area for homework or hobbies. The home includes a generous 1-tsubo (approx. 3.3 sqm) bathroom, a separate washroom with dual storage areas, and a vanity with a three-way mirror. Other notable features include a TV monitor-equipped door intercom for security, a carport to avoid snow removal in winter, and a large balcony that could be used for barbecues or potentially converted into additional parking.
The property is currently vacant and ready for immediate occupancy. The seller provides a 2-year warranty covering major risks such as leaks, structural defects, and plumbing issues. The location offers convenient access to daily amenities, with Larz Mart Otaru Saijo store and Seicomart Otaru Saijo store both approximately 1.3km away (a 3-4 minute drive). Public transport is accessible via the "Karamatsu Koen" bus stop, a 6-minute walk from the property, with connections to JR Otaru Station.
