Renovated Family Home in a Quiet Hokkaido Neighborhood
This spacious 4LDK detached house in Kitahiroshima, Hokkaido, is currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation to create a modern and comfortable living space. The property is situated in a quiet residential area, offering a peaceful lifestyle while remaining accessible to local amenities.
The renovation work is extensive and includes both interior and exterior upgrades. The exterior is receiving a fresh coat of paint, and the existing garage is being demolished to expand the parking area into a more convenient space for two cars. Landscaping work, including tree trimming and site cleaning, is also part of the project. Inside, the entire house is being refreshed. All rooms are having their wallpaper and flooring replaced. The first-floor Japanese-style room (washitsu) is being converted into a living room extension, involving the removal of tatami mats, shoji screens, and a Buddhist altar. The second-floor washitsu is being converted into a Western-style room. All closets (oshiire) are being replaced or converted into built-in closets, with one room featuring a walk-in closet that will have its shelves and poles replaced.
The kitchen is being completely renewed and relocated to create a modern counter-style kitchen. The bathroom unit is being replaced with a brand new LIXIL unit. The washbasin is also being replaced with a new LIXIL unit, and the toilet is being swapped for a new one. Other updates include replacing all lighting fixtures, the intercom system, and the front door. The genkan (entrance) will feature a new U-shaped shoe cabinet. The living room benefits from south-east facing windows, creating a bright and sunny space. The property features public water supply, city gas, and a sewer system. Notable equipment includes a system kitchen, counter kitchen, IH cooking hob, gas hob, bath reheating function, bathroom dryer, shower-equipped washbasin, heated toilet seat, walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, TV monitor doorphone, and underfloor heating. Key features are all-electric capability, barrier-free design, south-facing orientation, and included parking.
The price of 23,990,000 yen includes consumption tax and all renovation costs. Viewings are possible even while renovations are underway. The property is eligible for the housing loan tax reduction. The seller is the listing company, and viewings can be arranged by appointment.
The area of Kitahiroshima offers a blend of suburban convenience and natural surroundings. An interesting local fact is that the city is home to the Sapporo Dome, a famous multi-purpose stadium with a retractable roof that hosted matches during the 2002 FIFA World Cup. While the property itself is in a quiet neighborhood, one of the closest major tourist attractions is the historical village of Historical Village of Hokkaido (Kaitaku-no Mura), an open-air museum showcasing architecture and life from the pioneering days of Hokkaido.
