Renovated 4LDK House with Expansive Parking on a Sunny Corner Lot in Muroran
This charming single-family home, located in a quiet residential area of Muroran City, Hokkaido, presents a fantastic opportunity to own a spacious and bright property currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation. The house sits on a generous south-facing corner lot with a land area of approximately 69.45 tsubo (229.59 sqm), ensuring excellent sunlight exposure. The building itself offers a comfortable 4LDK layout across two floors, with a total floor area of about 31.92 tsubo (105.54 sqm).
As detailed in the agent's notes, the property is in the midst of a full-scale renovation scheduled for completion in March 2026. Key upgrades include a complete overhaul of the kitchen, bathroom, toilet, washbasin area, plumbing, and water heater. The interior is being fully refreshed with new flooring, wall coverings, ceilings, and fixtures throughout. The exterior will also be renewed with work on the outer walls and roof. Specific improvements mentioned are the replacement of the entrance door with a cold-region specification door suitable for Hokkaido's climate, the installation of downlights in the living area, and the upgrade of the toilet to a heated washlet seat. The kitchen will be newly installed with a stylish design, and a shampoo dresser will be added to the washroom. The current 0.75 tsubo bathroom is being expanded for greater comfort. Furthermore, the existing 6-tatami mat Japanese-style room on the first floor will be converted into a 6-jo Western-style room.
A standout feature is the ample parking, which is being expanded to accommodate four or more vehicles in front of the house and beside the entrance. The property is situated in a quiet neighborhood and is a corner lot with road frontage to the southeast and southwest. The price of 12,490,000 yen is inclusive of consumption tax and all renovation costs. The transfer timing is negotiable.
