Modern Scandinavian-Inspired Home in Oshu City
This newly built, three-bedroom detached house with a nook is located in the Mizusawa area of Oshu City, Iwate Prefecture. The property features a beige and white Nordic-inspired interior, designed for both comfort and functional aesthetics, allowing families to spend relaxed time together. The layout is a 3LDK plus a nook, a versatile space that can be used as a study, kids' play area, or for various other purposes according to the family's lifestyle.
The home is equipped with a solar power generation system that is kind to both the wallet and the environment. A 6.6kWh solar panel is standard, estimated to cover the electricity consumption of a typical household. The system comes with a 15-year warranty for the generation system and a 25-year warranty for the panel output. An all-electric hot water supply system with an Ecocute heat pump is also installed, which heats water with minimal electricity. When combined with the solar power, this creates an energy-saving system that uses electricity efficiently. An AI Eco-navi feature automatically starts reheating when a human sensor is activated, and savings figures can be checked on the monitor.
A ductless total heat exchange ventilation system (Type 1) maintains a comfortable indoor environment by exchanging temperature and humidity between outdoor and indoor air. It can be switched to a one-way forced exhaust mode with a single switch, and filter replacement is simple. The living room is equipped with a 'Zubadan Kirigamine' room air conditioner that maintains a comfortable room temperature throughout the year. An infrared sensor detects people and temperature to predict and switch to comfortable operation. This premium model has enhanced heating capabilities for powerful performance even in cold winter outdoor temperatures. It also features nanoe technology that sterilizes inside the air conditioner and suppresses harmful substances like pollen and PM2.5.
The property boasts abundant storage, including a Walk-in Closet (WIC), a Shoe-in Closet (SIC), and a pantry, making it ideal for families with many belongings. The land area is a spacious approximately 54 tsubo (approx. 178.79 sqm), with a garden on the south side where gardening can be enjoyed. The house is a two-story wooden structure built using a 2x6 construction method, designed to be resilient against earthquakes, snow, and fire, and features high airtightness and high insulation for a comfortable indoor climate throughout the seasons. There is parking space for two cars. The property is located about a 22-minute walk from JR Tohoku Main Line 'Mizusawa' Station, and a 13-minute walk from Mizusawa Elementary School.
