Renovated 5LDK Detached House in a Quiet Residential Area of Utsunomiya
This is a thoroughly renovated 5LDK detached house located in a quiet residential area of Fuse-cho, Utsunomiya City, Tochigi Prefecture. The property was originally built by Misawa Home in October 1982 and has been fully modernized through extensive renovation work completed in October 2025. The renovation included a complete overhaul of the interior layout, new water fixtures, and exterior wall and roof painting, resulting in a bright and comfortable living space.
The house features a spacious 20-tatami LDK, which can accommodate large furniture such as a sofa and dining table. The kitchen has been replaced with a new system kitchen from Housetec, featuring a scratch-resistant artificial marble countertop and a large sink for easy cleaning. The three-burner gas stove offers one-touch ignition and simple lever-based heat adjustment, making cooking convenient. The kitchen's ventilation fan, a sirocco fan with a 40W light, has also been replaced to ensure powerful air extraction.
The bathroom is a new, spacious 1-tsubo unit bath from Housetec, complete with a bench for various bathing styles and water-saving features. It also includes a bathroom heating, ventilation, and dryer unit, providing functions such as clothes drying, heating, cooling, and mildew prevention. The shower head is a new model that combines a swirling e-shower for water-saving with a straight shower for a comfortable bathing experience. The toilet has been replaced with a Janis Industries model featuring a warm water bidet, approximately 59% water-saving compared to older models, a splash-proof hand wash basin, and a G-coat finish for easy cleaning. The washroom has a new vanity unit, with new cushion flooring and wall and ceiling cloth replacement for a bright and clean feel.
The entrance features a new shoe box with deodorizing shelves that are height-adjustable. The entrance door has been replaced, and the entrance tiles have been overlaid with 30cm square tiles. The intercom has been upgraded to a model with a recording function. The property has a balcony on the south side, with newly painted flooring and handrails, providing ample space for drying laundry. A dedicated garden space is also available. On the second-floor hallway, there is a loft space suitable for storing belongings or as a hideaway.
The house has 5 bedrooms, all of which have been converted from Japanese-style rooms to Western-style rooms. The flooring has been overlaid with wide, non-wax flooring from Yodagumi, which is resistant to scratches and stains. Ceiling cloths have been replaced, and TV jacks and air conditioner outlets have been installed in each room. Closets have been added, with two full-sized closets in one room providing ample storage. The parking area is scheduled for expansion and can accommodate up to 3 cars. The property is a corner lot, offering good sunlight, and is situated on a quiet street with little traffic. The renovation included inspections of the underfloor and attic areas, and a two-year warranty covers the three major risks of used homes: leaks, structural defects, and water pipe issues. A five-year warranty on termite prevention treatment is also provided.
