Spacious 7DK Family Home in Niihama with Renovated Wet Areas
This substantial two-storey detached house, built in May 1975, offers a generous 188.61 square meters of living space on a large 287.83 square meter corner plot. The property is situated in a quiet residential neighborhood in Niihama City, Ehime Prefecture, with the south-facing orientation and road frontage ensuring excellent sunlight. A key feature is that the seller has already renovated the wet areas—including the kitchen, washbasin area, and bathroom—prior to handover, though some additional work may be required at the occupant's expense.
According to the agent's notes, the property's equipment includes a separate bath and toilet, a public water supply, a septic tank, and propane gas. The layout is a spacious 7DK, providing ample room for a large family or multi-generational living. Additional features include parking for two or more cars, a system kitchen, two toilets, a bath with a re-heating function, a monitor-equipped intercom, and the potential for two-family use.
The location offers convenient access to local amenities. The agent's remarks note distances to several facilities: Ukishima Elementary School is 945m away, Kawashima Junior High School is 2299m, Niihama City Hall is 4600m, the Labour Accident Hospital is 2545m, the Co-op Utaka store is 1074m, and Midori Nursery School is 404m. The property is approximately a 23-minute walk from JR Yosan Line's Takihama Station.
Niihama City, part of Ehime Prefecture on Shikoku Island, is a historic industrial center known for its copper mining heritage. An interesting local fact is that the city hosts the famous Niihama Taiko Festival, one of Japan's most dynamic and powerful festivals featuring massive, ornate floats. For nature lovers, a major nearby landmark is the scenic Mount Ishizuchi, the highest peak in Western Japan and a sacred site for Shugendo mountain asceticism, located within a reasonable driving distance for day trips.
