This recently renovated 3LDK condominium in Kobe's central ward offers comfortable urban living with excellent access to daily amenities. The property features a spacious 74.25 square meter layout with abundant natural light and efficient space configuration.
According to the agent's notes, the current status indicates this is an akiya (vacant house). The agent encourages potential buyers to schedule a free viewing by contacting them with preferred dates. The property boasts several key features including supermarkets and convenience stores within walking distance, ample storage throughout, and a comfortable Japanese-style room in the floor plan.
The comprehensive renovation completed in December 2024 included complete replacement of all water-related facilities (kitchen, bathroom, toilet, and washroom), re-wallpapering of all rooms, new flooring (CF, floor tiles, L-45), and thorough house cleaning. The location provides exceptional convenience with Kobe Municipal Kumonaka Elementary School approximately 4 minutes away (300m) and Kobe Municipal Fukiai Middle School just 3 minutes on foot (180m).
The south-facing balcony offers 7.7 square meters of outdoor space, perfect for laundry drying and enjoying the views.

The surrounding neighborhood of Kumanochi-cho in Kobe's Central Ward offers excellent urban convenience while maintaining residential tranquility. The area is well-served by multiple transportation options including Shin-Kobe Station on the JR Sanyo Shinkansen line just 10 minutes away, providing direct access to Osaka and beyond.

An interesting historical fact about the area is that Kobe was one of the first Japanese ports to open to international trade in the 19th century, which influenced the city's unique architectural blend of Japanese and Western styles. The closest major landmark is the iconic Kobe Port Tower, located approximately 3 kilometers from the property, offering panoramic views of the city and harbor.
Built in 1974 as part of an 8-story building with 106 total units, this SRC (steel reinforced concrete) structure provides durable construction in a prime central Kobe location. The property's recent comprehensive renovations ensure modern comfort while maintaining the solid construction of this well-established condominium complex.
