Shopfront House in Osaka's Suminoe Ward
This unique property in Osaka's Suminoe Ward offers a rare combination of residential and commercial space. The 120.02 sqm steel-framed building features a 5DK layout spread across four floors, with the ground floor designed for shop use or as a two-car garage. Built in 1986, the property underwent partial renovations in 2023 including new wallpaper, kitchen, and bathroom fixtures.
The neighborhood boasts excellent convenience with a supermarket (400m), convenience store (70m), and drugstore (630m) within walking distance. An interesting local fact: Suminoe Ward contains part of Osaka's extensive canal system, originally built for transportation during the Edo period. The area's closest major attraction is the Sumiyoshi Taisha shrine, one of Japan's oldest Shinto shrines with distinctive arched bridges, located just 2.5km north.
Public transport access includes Suminoe Station (14 min walk) on the Nankai Line, providing direct access to Namba in 15 minutes. The property's east-facing orientation ensures good natural light throughout the day.
