Renovated Family Home in Hakodate with Comprehensive Updates and Guarantees
This detached house in Hakodate's Kamiyukawa-cho offers a move-in ready, fully renovated living space. The property is a two-story wooden structure built in April 1989, featuring a 3SLDK layout with a total floor area of 109.71 square meters on a 165.29 square meter corner lot.
The renovation was extensive, covering both exterior and interior work. The roof and exterior walls were repainted. Inside, the entire kitchen was replaced with a new system kitchen featuring a countertop setup, allowing for interaction with the living/dining area. The sink and worktop are made of artificial marble, which is resistant to rust and stains for easier maintenance. The bathroom was completely removed and a new one-piece unit bath, large enough to stretch out your legs (approximately 1-tsubo size), was installed on the first floor. The toilet was replaced with a new LIXIL model with a warm-water bidet function and a stain-resistant finish. The washbasin area was also relocated to the first floor and newly installed.
All flooring was either overlaid or replaced with new flooring, and walls and ceilings were re-papered. The entrance door lock was replaced, and a new shoe box and storage shelf were installed in the genkan. A new LIXIL artificial wood deck, which is more decay-resistant and requires less maintenance than natural wood, was added. The property includes a balcony on the southeast side, ideal for drying laundry. The existing garden was removed to create a parking area for two standard cars side-by-side.
Key equipment includes a system kitchen, counter kitchen, gas cooktop (only the cooktop uses gas), oil-fired water heater with remote control, reheating function for the bath, bathroom dryer, shower-equipped washbasin, and washlet toilet. Indoor features include a walk-in closet in one room, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor doorphone, and flooring throughout. The property is south-facing and includes parking. Other utilities include public water, propane gas, and sewer systems. The house also features double-glazed windows.
The listing emphasizes several guarantees for peace of mind: a two-year warranty covering leaks, defects or corrosion in major structural parts, and faults or leaks in water supply and drainage pipes. Additionally, a termite prevention treatment comes with a five-year guarantee from the construction date for the treated areas.
The location is in a quiet residential area, a 34-minute walk from Yunokawa Station on the Hakodate City Tram. The neighborhood offers convenience with Kamiyukawa Elementary School about an 800-meter walk away, Togura Junior High School about 900 meters, a convenience store within 700 meters, a supermarket (Frespo Togura) about 1.7 km away, and a general hospital within a 400-meter radius.
