Renovated Detached House in Iwaki City with Spacious Living Area
This detached house located in the Meiji Danchi area of Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture, is currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation. The property offers a 4LDK layout with a total floor area of 125.79 square meters on a generous land plot of 331.71 square meters. The renovation includes replacing interior doors, ceilings, wall coverings, flooring, lighting fixtures, switches, and outlets, as well as installing fire alarms. The living room, approximately 23 tatami mats in size, will be finished as a bright and clean space with south-facing windows providing ample sunlight and good ventilation.
The renovation plan involves changing the layout from a predominantly Japanese-style room configuration to all Western-style rooms. The first floor will feature a 13-tatami Western-style room, a 7-tatami Western-style room, and a spacious living-dining-kitchen area. The second floor will include a 6-tatami Western-style room and a 5.5-tatami Western-style room. The kitchen will be replaced with a new unit from House Tech, featuring an artificial marble countertop that is resistant to heat and scratches. The bathroom will be a new unit bath from House Tech, offering a spacious 1-tsubo size bathtub. The washstand will be a new Panasonic model with a three-way mirror and storage. The toilet will be replaced with a new warm-water bidet seat from Janis.
Exterior work includes exterior wall painting, expansion of the parking area to accommodate three parallel-parked cars, and tree trimming in the garden. The entrance will be replaced, and the front door area will feature new tiles, ceiling and wall coverings, lighting, and a shoe cabinet. The roof will be cleaned. The property also includes a 2-year warranty covering the three major risks of used homes: leaks, structural defects, and plumbing failures. A 5-year warranty is provided for termite control, with two free inspections included.
The property is located approximately 2,200 meters (about a 28-minute walk) from Iwaki Station on the Joban Line, making commuting and outings convenient. Nearby amenities include a shopping center about 1 km away. The building was constructed in July 1979 and has a wooden structure. The property is situated in a low-rise residential zone with a building coverage ratio of 50% and a floor area ratio of 80%. The land is under freehold ownership.
