Spacious Family Home with Expansive Land in Iwaki's Izumi Gaoka
This property presents a rare opportunity in the Izumi Gaoka area of Iwaki City, featuring a land plot exceeding 100 tsubo (approximately 382.70 sqm or 115.76 tsubo), a size seldom found in this neighborhood. The house itself is a 3SLDK layout, which can be modified to a 4SLDK, built in March 1990 with a total floor area of 130.85 sqm. The building is a two-story wooden structure situated on a plateau, offering peace of mind regarding flood risks.
The property is equipped with comprehensive facilities including propane gas, water supply, sewerage, side ditches, air conditioning, hot water supply via a boiler system, electricity, separate bath and toilet areas, two toilets, a bath over 1 tsubo in size, shower, washroom, washbasin, indoor laundry space, CATV, telephone, bay windows, lighting fixtures, shutters, a balcony, a garden, and a walk-in closet.
Special notes detail the road access: a one-sided road to the north, a 6-meter wide public road with a frontage of 23 meters. The location boasts good sunlight and is in a quiet residential neighborhood. Parking is available for two cars at no additional cost, with a carport, and capacity can be increased. A key feature is the fully fenced garden on all four sides, which can be immediately utilized as an extensive dog run, creating an excellent environment for pet lovers.
The agent's remarks provide essential context. The Izumi Gaoka district is a housing development subdivided nearly 40 years ago. It remains popular with child-rearing families due to its proximity to elementary and junior high schools, good transportation access, quiet atmosphere, and active neighborhood watch. Unlike some aging developments, Izumi Gaoka continues to attract young families through land and used home sales, maintaining a vibrant community with many children and easy friendship-building opportunities. However, the 35-year-old building shows expected age-related wear, tear, and stains, so the agent strongly advises considering renovation as essential for long-term, secure living after purchase.
The area around Iwaki City offers a blend of coastal and mountainous scenery. An interesting local fact is that Iwaki is home to the Spa Resort Hawaiians, a famous hot spring theme park complex. The closest major landmark is the Iwaki Yumoto Onsen area, a historic hot spring resort district known for its therapeutic waters and traditional atmosphere.
