Newly Built 3LDK House in Uruma, Okinawa with Long-Term Excellent Housing Certification
This newly constructed detached house, located in the C district of Uruma City, Okinawa Prefecture, offers a modern and comfortable living space with a 3LDK layout plus a walk-in closet. The property is currently under construction and is scheduled for completion in March 2026. The house spans a total floor area of 84.25 square meters across two stories, situated on a 108.81 square meter plot of land that features an extended and irregularly shaped lot, providing unique possibilities.
The property is a certified Long-Term Excellent Housing and BELS (Building-Housing Energy-efficiency Labeling System) home, meaning it meets seven national technical standards designed to ensure it remains in good condition for many years. This certification qualifies the owner for significant tax benefits, including property tax reductions and home loan tax deductions. The house is also approved for Flat 35 loans. The construction is wood-frame, specifically designed to withstand Okinawa's typhoons, earthquakes, and termites. The agent offers comprehensive support services, including free home loan agency services, application assistance for tax reductions, and even free legal advice from an in-house administrative scrivener. A robust extended warranty service, extendable up to 30 years, is available, along with free 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year warranty plans and complimentary periodic inspections.
Key features and equipment include a spacious south-facing balcony, a garden, parking for two cars, and a roof balcony for shelter during sudden rain. The interior boasts an all-Western-style design, a spacious living area, a functional system kitchen with a counter, a separate bath and toilet, two toilets (both with bidet functions), a large bathroom where adults can stretch out, a wide washbasin area, a walk-in closet, under-floor storage, and a dedicated indoor washing machine space. The home is equipped with a 24-hour ventilation system, propane gas, and is situated in a quiet location.
The selling agency, Aomi Real Estate, highlights its extensive experience with over 300 homes sold in Okinawa and a friendly, approachable staff, including female agents to ensure comfortable viewings for everyone. They welcome inquiries on weekdays and evenings and have a strong track record of working with clients relocating from outside Okinawa and foreign nationals.

The area of Uruma City is part of the central region of Okinawa Island, offering a blend of residential comfort and access to the island's unique culture. An interesting local fact is that Uruma City was created in 2005 from the merger of four towns, and its name is a portmanteau of "Uruma," an ancient poetic name for Okinawa, symbolizing the unity of the region. The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Katsuren Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site with stunning views of the East China Sea, located approximately a 15-minute drive away.
