Scandinavian-Style Home with Wood Stove in Fukushima
This distinctive two-story house in Fukushima City features a Scandinavian-inspired exterior with vertical siding and a generous 4-meter covered entrance porch. The interior showcases natural materials throughout, including solid wood flooring and walls finished with diatomaceous earth. A central living space is defined by a dramatic double-height ceiling and anchored by a wood-burning stove, with a ceiling fan to circulate warmth.
The layout is a 4SLDK, offering a 25.5-tatami mat living-dining-kitchen area, a 6-tatami Japanese-style room, and three additional Western-style rooms. A service room includes a loft, adding a playful element. The property includes a parking space for three vehicles and an external storage shed.
Located in Fukushima's Miyashiro district, the area is known for its natural surroundings. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Abukuma River is one of the clearest rivers in Japan. The closest major landmark is the historic Fukushima Gokoku Shrine, a significant cultural site within the city.
