Spacious 3DK Detached House in Fujimino, Saitama
This property is a two-story wooden detached house located in the quiet residential neighborhood of Naema, Fujimino City, Saitama Prefecture. Built in December 1989, the house offers a total floor area of 79.39 sqm (approximately 24.01 tsubo) on a land plot of 72.9 sqm (approximately 22.05 tsubo), with an additional approximately 19 sqm of private road. The layout is a functional 3DK, featuring two separate toilet and washroom areas, a bathroom with a window, and a southeast-facing balcony that provides excellent sunlight and ventilation, aided by an adjacent water channel on the southeast side. The property includes attic storage and has undergone seismic retrofitting for safety.
A critical note from the agent's remarks must be highlighted: This property exceeds the regulated building coverage ratio and floor area ratio. Therefore, in the event of reconstruction, a building of the same scale cannot be built. This is an essential legal consideration for any future owner.
The location is highly convenient, within an 11-minute walk from Fujimino Station on the Tobu Tojo Line. Daily necessities are easily accessible, with supermarkets like LOPIA and TONARIE Fujimino, a drugstore, convenience stores (Lawson, Seven-Eleven), and a BOOKOFF all within a short walking distance. The area is served by local clinics, a post office, and is situated within a low-rise exclusive residential zone, ensuring a peaceful living environment. For recreation, Shizawa Park is just a 7-minute walk away.
Fujimino City offers a blend of suburban comfort and accessibility to greater Tokyo. An interesting local fact is that the city's name, "Fujimino," was created in 2005 from the merger of the former town of Fujimi and the village of Minami, literally meaning "Field of View of Mount Fuji," though the famous mountain is not visible from here. The closest major tourist attraction is the historic Kawagoe City, often called "Little Edo," which is just a short train ride away and famous for its well-preserved kurazukuri (clay-walled warehouse) buildings and bell tower.
