Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective buyers. The development operates under the Kyoto Prefecture Otonoku Civil Engineering Office Directive No. 5 Otsu Ken Dai 1 Gou No. 21. The agent is actively hosting on-site open houses. These are held every Saturday, Sunday, and public holidays from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, but prior inquiry is mandatory. Private viewings are also available by appointment, with the model home being sanitized and ventilated between each guest group. For those arriving by car, a parking lot with 9 spaces is available at 2-6-13 Baba, Nagaokakyo City. For train arrivals, a company representative will meet you at either JR Nagaokakyo Station or Hankyu Nagaokatenjin Station. The sales office is fully equipped with a kids' room complete with DVDs, toys, picture books, and coloring materials to keep children entertained, along with free drinks and snacks. Families are warmly welcomed, with amenities like a baby bed for diaper changes and available child seats.
Three distinct viewing tour options are offered to suit different needs: 1) A quick 30-minute tour focusing primarily on the floor plan layout; 2) A thorough 1-hour tour that includes a detailed look at the property's features and equipment; and 3) A comprehensive 2-hour 'Satisfaction Tour' that covers the floor plans, equipment, and the surrounding neighborhood by car, visiting expected family facilities like elementary schools, supermarkets, and libraries. The agent also welcomes consultations on financing and any other home-buying concerns.
The development promises a high standard of living with proposed homes featuring spacious living rooms over 20 tatami mats in size, some with open-ceiling designs, and well-appointed kitchens with dishwashers and grills. Bathrooms come with heating and drying functions, and homes include features like heat-insulating Low-E double-glazed windows throughout. The area is notably family-oriented, with Nagaohouji Elementary School just a 2-minute walk away and Nagaokakyo Catholic Kindergarten only a 1-minute walk. The neighborhood boasts a rich, natural environment perfect for raising children. An interesting fact about Nagaokakyo is that it was the site of the ancient capital of Nagaokakyo, established by Emperor Kammu in 784 before the capital was moved to Heian-kyo (modern-day Kyoto). The closest major tourist attraction is the stunning Katsura Imperial Villa, a masterpiece of Japanese garden and architecture design located a short drive away, offering a glimpse into Japan's imperial and aesthetic heritage.
