Special notes detail the road access: the property fronts a 4-meter wide public road to the east. Important remarks highlight that this is a compact home bathed in sunlight, available from the 20,000 yen per month range (likely referring to estimated mortgage payments). It features the 4DK layout, the east-facing 4.0m road, space for two parked cars, excellent sunlight, and has been renovated with an insulation performance of R7.9.
The Makishima area in Nishikan Ward offers a more suburban feel within Niigata City. An interesting local fact is that this ward is known for its agricultural production, particularly grapes and pears, contributing to Niigata's reputation as a major fruit-growing region. The closest major landmark is the historic Northern Culture Museum (Hoku Bunka Hakubutsukan) in neighboring Maki Town, a stunning former merchant estate and garden that offers a deep dive into the region's cultural heritage.
