Renovated Single-Story Home in Fukagawa, Hokkaido
This property is a 3LDK single-story house located in Fukagawa City, Hokkaido, currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation. The asking price of 14,990,000 yen includes consumption tax and all renovation costs. The property is available for viewing even during the renovation work.
The renovation plan is extensive. The entire interior will be updated with new wallpaper and flooring. The kitchen will be replaced with a brand new system kitchen featuring ample storage. The bathroom, toilet, and washbasin vanity will all be replaced with new units. The entrance door will be exchanged for a new one to improve airtightness, and the shoe storage will be replaced with a U-shaped unit capable of storing shoes for the entire family. Each room comes with storage, and the closets in rooms being converted from Japanese-style to Western-style will be refurbished. After the snow melts, exterior wall and roof painting is also planned. The property features a windbreak room (風除室) at the entrance, which helps keep the entryway warmer by preventing wind and rain from hitting the main door directly.
Key equipment and features include a system kitchen, counter kitchen, gas cooktop (the listing notes the buyer must select a propane gas cooktop), bath with reheating function, bathroom dryer, washbasin with shower, heated toilet seat, walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, TV monitor intercom, and underfloor heating. The property is south-facing and includes a parking lot. Utilities are public water, propane gas, and sewer. The property comes with a defect warranty from the real estate company. The land is a regular-shaped, flat plot.
Special notes indicate that an existing kerosene water heater boiler is present. A parking space expansion project has been completed, allowing for two standard cars. The property is currently vacant. A reservation-based open house is scheduled from April 3rd (Friday) to April 6th (Monday), with same-day reservations accepted. The property is eligible for the housing loan tax reduction under certain conditions. It includes a two-year warranty for leaks, defects in major structural parts, corrosion, and failures or leaks in water supply and drainage pipes. The real estate company can provide proposals for repayment amounts and possible loan amounts tailored to the buyer's needs.
