This fully renovated two-story house in Kobe's Kita Ward offers a move-in-ready opportunity with significant updates completed in October 2025. The property features a stylish navy and white two-tone exterior paint job and a sunken garage with a shutter to protect your vehicle from the elements.

It includes a 3-burner stove with a grill, a sink with a built-in water purifier and hose-equipped faucet, and a convenient outlet on the countertop. A spacious approximately 3-tatami mat pantry adjacent to the kitchen offers ample food storage.
All bedrooms feature two-sided windows for excellent sunlight. The second floor includes a southwest-facing Western-style room (approx. 7.5 tatami) and a southeast-facing Western-style room (approx. 7.5 tatami) with a balcony and closet. An additional Western-style room (approx. 5.5 tatami) is also on this floor. Renovation work across the home included wall covering replacement, new flooring overlay, screen door replacement, and fixture exchanges. The entrance features newly replaced adjustable shoe storage. The bathroom is a newly installed Hausutekku unit bath with a window for ventilation. The washroom features a newly replaced TOTO three-mirror washbasin with storage.
