Newly Built Wooden House in Kadena, Okinawa with Long-Term Excellent Housing Certification
This newly constructed detached house, located in Kadena, Okinawa, offers a 3LDK layout across two storeys with a total floor area of approximately 106.2 square meters. Built in 2026, the property sits on a generous land plot of about 133.67 square meters and features parking for three vehicles. It is a certified Long-Term Excellent Housing property, which qualifies for tax and interest rate benefits, and is designed to Okinawa's specific high-performance standards for wind and earthquake resistance, having achieved the highest grade.
The house boasts a natural, timeless design. The spacious living-dining-kitchen area (18.5 tatami mats) offers an open-plan living space, a privilege of homeownership. The kitchen features a counter, three-burnet stove with a fish grill, dishwasher, and a water purifier-equipped faucet. The home includes two toilets (one on each floor), a one-tsubo-sized bath, a separate vanity with a three-sided mirror, and a gas-powered clothes dryer. Other notable features include a walk-in closet, underfloor storage, a monitor-equipped intercom, a porch/terrace, and ample storage throughout, including a large entrance storage area perfect for strollers or sports equipment.
The agent, Minsa House, provides comprehensive services. Their philosophy is to pursue the quantity and quality of information they can provide to clients, leading to high satisfaction and long-term, secure living. With over 20,000 followers on Instagram and TikTok and seven offices across Okinawa, they offer 24/7 property tours and purchase consultations by appointment. Their commitments include: 1) long-term, concrete life planning; 2) deep property information (crime statistics, maximum seismic intensity predictions, etc.); 3) sharing architectural merits and cautions; and 4) exceeding expectations with speed and high integrity. As a closing bonus, they offer free consultation on asset management, tax-saving strategies, and various subsidies post-delivery.
They encourage consultation for those: considering wooden homes but concerned about Okinawa's climate (they will explain pros/cons of concrete vs. wood); just starting to consider buying and unsure where to begin; debating whether to continue renting or buy; undecided between custom-built homes, new condos, or newly built spec houses; or worried about securing a housing loan (self-employed, those with existing debt, or recent job-changers are welcome). Inquiry perks include a detailed cost plan covering all post-purchase move-in expenses, a property report with in-depth info not on the listing site (e.g., tsunami hazard predictions), and a free financial consultation with a Level 1 Financial Planner.
The property is situated in Kadena Town. A notable nearby landmark is the Kadena Air Base, a major installation that has been a significant part of the local landscape and community for decades. The area offers a blend of local Okinawan culture and a unique international influence.
