A Modern Wooden Home in Naha's Gushi District
This newly constructed property at 2-chome Gushi, Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture, presents a compelling opportunity for homeownership. Completed in September 2024, this two-storey wooden house features a modern and simple exterior designed with a timeless aesthetic that resists going out of style. The property is part of a seven-unit development, with this specific unit being the A Building.
The spacious 4LDK layout is spread across approximately 93.98 square meters (about 27.9 tsubo) of total floor area, thoughtfully planned by a construction company with a track record of over 40,000 units annually. The interior is well-appointed with a system kitchen featuring a counter, a water purifier, and propane gas. Comfort and convenience are enhanced by a bathroom dryer, a vanity washbasin counter, and two separate toilets, one equipped with a warm-water bidet seat. Ample storage is provided by a walk-in closet and under-floor storage, while security is addressed with a monitor-equipped intercom.
The property sits on a land area of approximately 116.44 square meters (about 35.2 tsubo) with a south-facing primary exposure, ensuring good natural light. A balcony of about 5 square meters (1.5 tsubo) offers outdoor space. Parking is accommodated with space for three cars in a parallel configuration, though the actual number may vary depending on the vehicle type. The property is a short 6-minute walk from the Tagashira bus stop.

The Gushi district in Naha offers a residential atmosphere while being part of Okinawa's vibrant capital. A notable landmark not far from the area is Shuri Castle, a reconstructed gusuku (Ryukyuan castle) and a UNESCO World Heritage site that served as the palace of the Ryukyu Kingdom. The region is also famous for its unique cultural heritage, including the sanshin, a three-stringed instrument that is the heart of traditional Okinawan music.
