Historic 1922 Home in Toyonoka with 6DK+Classroom Layout
This unique property in Toyonoka City's Jonan-cho district presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history. Built in January 1922, this wooden two-story house features a spacious 6DK layout plus an additional classroom, offering a total floor area of 125.6㎡. The land area is 124.69㎡.

According to the agent's notes, the house is equipped with two toilets (one Western-style, one Japanese-style), a bathroom with a window for ventilation, a shower-equipped washbasin vanity, and both water supply and sewer systems. The bathroom features tiling and a window for easy airing. The kitchen is a classic, old-fashioned design with ample storage. The floor plan includes multiple Japanese-style rooms of varying sizes (4.5, 6.5, 6.0, and 7.5 tatami mats) and a Western-style room on the second floor that is bright and suitable for use as a study or hobby room. The property is currently vacant, and the handover timing is negotiable. The transaction type is exclusive intermediary.
The location is highly convenient, with daily life facilities nearby, making it easy to live here even without a car. The property is situated in a quasi-commercial zone with a building-to-land ratio of 80% and a floor area ratio of 300%. It is a short walk from the Toyo Meteorological Observatory bus stop, which is a 7-minute bus ride from JR San-in Main Line Toyonoka Station. Given its size and layout, this property is recommended for investment purposes with renovation in mind and offers diverse potential uses, including residential, commercial, or shop space.
The surrounding area of Toyonoka is part of northern Hyogo Prefecture, known for its rich natural and cultural heritage. An interesting local fact is that Toyonoka is famous as the original birthplace of the Oriental White Stork reintroduction program, a major conservation success story. The city is also a gateway to the scenic Kinosaki Onsen, a famous hot spring town just a short train ride away, renowned for its public bathhouses and traditional atmosphere.
