Modern Single-Story Home with Spacious Garden in Izumo
This recently built single-story house, constructed in April 2022, offers a modern and comfortable living environment in Izumo City, Shimane Prefecture. The property features a stylish two-tone exterior and is situated on a corner lot with excellent southern exposure for abundant natural light. Privacy is enhanced by a screen fence along the road-facing sides, and the front roads, with widths of 6.0m and 4.1m, experience low traffic volume.
The interior is centered around a generous 20-jo (approx. 33 sqm) living-dining-kitchen (LDK) area. A key feature is the south-facing double-height ceiling (吹き抜け), which floods the space with sunlight and creates an open, airy atmosphere. A ceiling fan is installed to help regulate air circulation in this voluminous area. The kitchen is a peninsula-style design with an IH cooking hob, making it easy to interact with family in the living area while cooking. The IH system is safe for families with children and easy to clean. The property is all-electric (オール電化).
The home boasts a 3LDK layout with ample storage. The 7-jo bedroom connects to a study/library and a walk-through closet, providing substantial storage capacity. The 5-jo western-style room also includes a closet. The bathroom features a shower-equipped vanity with a wide countertop, perfect for placing makeup tools and hair dryers, and includes storage behind a three-way mirror and beside the sink. The toilet is a tankless type with a bidet function, accented by stylish wallpaper and herringbone-pattern flooring, and includes a window for ventilation. The laundry room can also function as a changing area.
Notable equipment and features include a system kitchen, counter kitchen, IH cooktop, bath with reheating function and dryer, shower-equipped vanity, heated toilet seat, walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, TV monitor intercom, underfloor heating, barrier-free design, parking for 4 cars, public water and sewer, underfloor storage, indoor laundry space, dishwasher, shoe closet, lighting fixtures included, and a 24-hour ventilation system. The land is a regular shape with generous spacing from neighboring houses, and double-glazed windows are installed.
Outside, the property includes a south-facing garden of over 10 tsubo (approx. 33 sqm) laid with turf, ideal for children's play, gardening, or barbecues. There is also parking space for four cars in front of the entrance.
The area is rich in history and mythology, as Izumo is famously home to Izumo Taisha, one of Japan's oldest and most important Shinto shrines, dedicated to the god of marriage. The property is within a reasonable distance of this major cultural landmark, offering a connection to Japan's spiritual heritage.
