Spacious Two-Generation Home in Sakai's Residential South
This detached house, built in 2004, presents an excellent opportunity for a multi-generational family or those seeking substantial space. Located in the quiet residential area of Minoishidai, Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, the property features a robust light-gauge steel frame construction and a solid exterior designed for long-term durability and peace of mind.
The home's key feature is its suitability for two-family living, offering two separate living-dining-kitchen areas. The main LDK is a spacious 19.9-jo (approx. 32.9 sqm), while a second LDK measures 16.9-jo (approx. 27.9 sqm), providing ample and open living spaces for separate households or extended family. The property underwent a comprehensive renovation in June 2018 (Reiwa 8), which included a full update of the kitchen, bathroom, toilet, and washbasin. The kitchen is a convenient counter-style design, allowing interaction with family while cooking. Other interior updates include new wallpaper, flooring, cushion flooring, a new stove, tile work, and screen door replacements.
Equipment and features are comprehensive. The home is all-electric and includes underfloor heating, a walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor intercom, an automatic bath with re-heating function and dryer, a shower-equipped vanity, and a washlet toilet. The south-facing orientation ensures excellent sunlight. Practicality is enhanced by a large, free parking space that can accommodate two vehicles side-by-side, making it convenient for multiple cars or guests.
The location offers daily convenience with a supermarket (Bandal Minoishidai Store) just a 6-minute walk away. A park is within a 4-minute walk (290m), and public transportation access is via a 34-minute walk or an 8-minute bus ride plus a 4-minute walk to Toga・Mikita Station on the Nankai Electric Railway Semboku Line.
The area of Sakai City is historically significant as the location of one of Japan's largest ancient burial mound clusters, the Mozu-Furuichi Kofun Group, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. While this property is in a modern residential ward, it places residents within easy reach of this profound historical landmark, offering a unique blend of contemporary living and ancient history.
