Blooming Garden: A Modern, Family-Friendly Home in Kawagoe
This newly built detached house, part of the "Blooming Garden" development, offers a spacious and secure living environment designed for modern families. The property features a generous 3LDK layout with a building area of 110.48 m² on a land plot of 139.17 m². A key highlight is the south-facing inner balcony, accessible from two rooms. This balcony offers ample depth for drying laundry and includes a roof, providing peace of mind during sudden rain showers even when you're out.
The home is constructed to the highest standards, having achieved the top Seismic Grade 3 in the official Housing Performance Evaluation. It is also certified as a Long-term Excellent Housing and Energy-saving Residence, with some units meeting ZEH (Net Zero Energy House) standards. Notable features include a dishwasher, bathroom dryer, a pantry, a walk-in closet, and two dedicated car parking spaces. The property uses economical and environmentally friendly city gas.
According to the agent's notes, the property is subject to regulations under the Landscape Law, Sunlight Restriction laws, the Public Land Expansion Promotion Law, and the Urban Regeneration Special Measures Act. The agent offers flexible viewing tours tailored to buyer needs: a quick 30-minute tour focusing on the floor plan, a thorough 1-hour tour including equipment checks, or a comprehensive 2-hour tour. They are prepared to show prospective buyers around local family-oriented facilities like elementary schools, supermarkets, and libraries by car upon request. The agent emphasizes support for first-time homebuyers and welcomes families with small children, but notes that a guide is not always on-site, so advance contact for viewings is essential.
The property is situated in the historic city of Kawagoe, Saitama Prefecture, known for its well-preserved Edo-period merchant district called "Koedo" (Little Edo). An interesting fact is that Kawagoe's iconic warehouse-style buildings were constructed after a great fire in 1893, leading to the adoption of fire-resistant clay-walled kurazukuri architecture. The closest major landmark is the famous Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine, known for its beautiful grounds and enmusubi (matchmaking) blessings.
