Renovated 3LDK House in Himeji with Comprehensive Guarantees
This property is a two-story wooden house currently undergoing a full renovation, located in a quiet residential area of Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. The price of 16,990,000 yen is all-inclusive, covering consumption tax and all renovation costs. The property is a 3LDK layout with a total floor area of 87.68 square meters on a land plot of 114.96 square meters.
The renovation work is extensive and detailed. The exterior is receiving new wall and roof painting. Internally, the layout is being changed, converting a second-floor Japanese-style room into a Western-style room. All rooms will feature new flooring, wallpaper, and lighting fixtures. A brand new First Plus system kitchen and a Haus Tech unit bath are being installed. The entrance will be completely renewed with a new wall and a new front door. The toilet and washbasin are also being replaced with new units. Furthermore, the parking space is being expanded and improved with crushed stone to accommodate two vehicles. Storage spaces are being reconfigured for better usability.
Critical agent notes highlight significant guarantees for peace of mind. The property comes with a 2-year warranty covering the three major risks of used homes: roof leaks, defects or corrosion in major structural parts, and water leakage or failure of water supply and drainage pipes. This warranty is provided after a thorough inspection, including under the floor, and renovation. Additionally, termite damage investigation and prevention work are conducted, backed by a 5-year guarantee from the construction company for the treated areas.
The house is equipped with a system kitchen, a bath with reheating function, a separate toilet and bath, a shower-equipped washbasin, a TV monitor intercom, and air conditioning. It is south-facing and includes two free parking spaces. The property is suitable for new seismic standards and is currently vacant.
The area offers convenient daily living, with a 7-Eleven convenience store approximately a 10-minute walk (750m) away and a Max Valu supermarket about a 13-minute walk (1200m) away. An interesting local fact is that Himeji is home to the stunning Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most iconic and pristine feudal castles, known as the "White Heron Castle" for its elegant white appearance. The property is well-connected, with JR Yobe Station on the Himeji Line just a 9-minute walk (400m) away, providing easy access to central Himeji and beyond.
