Renovated Family Home in Takamatsu with Modern Upgrades and Scenic Views
This three-bedroom, single-living-dining-kitchen (3SLDK) wooden two-storey house, built in May 1997, is situated in the Yura-cho area of Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture. The property has undergone a comprehensive renovation completed in May 2026, refreshing both the interior and exterior to create a comfortable and modern living environment.
The exterior renovation included repainting the roof and outer walls, giving the home a sharp, balanced colour scheme. The garden area was also cleared of overgrowth, resulting in a brighter and better-ventilated outdoor space. Inside, the living-dining-kitchen area was expanded by connecting two rooms to create a spacious 18.5-tatami-mat area, with new ceiling and wall coverings and a layer of flooring installed over the existing surface. The kitchen has been completely replaced with a new unit featuring a bright white artificial marble worktop, designed to improve visibility and efficiency during daily meal preparation.
The bathroom has undergone a professional deep cleaning and is equipped with a reheating function, allowing the whole family to enjoy warm baths. The toilet has been updated with new ceiling and wall coverings, cushioned flooring, and a replacement washlet with a warm water cleaning function. The vanity unit has been swapped for a model with a three-way mirror, including a handy shower for fixing bedhead hair and making morning routines more efficient. A television monitor intercom has been installed next to the kitchen, enabling residents to see visitors before answering the door. All lighting fixtures throughout the property have been replaced with models that offer adjustable colour temperature via remote control, allowing for bright daylight-mode for reading or a warm bulb-colour for relaxation.
Two hot water control panels have been installed, one in the bathroom and one in the kitchen, allowing for easy bath filling at the touch of a button with an automatic shut-off feature. The property also includes a balcony accessible from the second-floor western room, which is convenient for drying futons. The balcony has repainted handrail walls and a cleaned floor, with a roof providing protection from sudden rain. The entryway has been cleaned, and the lock cylinder has been replaced for security. The entrance storage has been cleaned and includes a full-length mirror for checking your appearance before leaving.
The property is equipped with heat-type fire alarms in the kitchen and smoke-type alarms in the living spaces, with a battery life of approximately 10 years. The parking space has been widened by removing a carport and accordion gate, making access easier. The parking area accommodates up to two vehicles, with space for a third. The property includes a balcony as a facility.
The land area is 149.84 square meters, with a building area of 102.88 square meters. The site is compact, minimizing the effort required for weeding and garden maintenance. The property faces a public road with a width of 4 meters on its northeastern side, where traffic is light, ensuring a peaceful living environment. Upon opening the front door, residents can enjoy views of Mount Yura, a local hill with hiking trails for exercise. The home is located within walking distance of Kawashima Elementary School (17 minutes on foot) and is a 5-minute drive from Hallows Rokujo Mall, a 24-hour supermarket. The property is a 50-minute walk from the Mizuta Station on the Takamatsu Kotohira Electric Railway Nagao Line. The property is a for-sale property with a price of 13,490,000 yen, which includes consumption tax and renovation costs. The property offers a two-year warranty against the three major risks of used homes: roof leaks, defects or corrosion in main structural parts, and water leaks or malfunctions in water supply and drainage pipes. Termite prevention work has also been carried out with a five-year warranty on the treated areas.
