High-Performance Family Home in Yokosuka's Peaceful Neighborhood
This detached house, constructed in May 2024 by Ichijo Komuten, is located in the Ikeda-cho area of Yokosuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture. The property sits on a flat plot of over 50 tsubo (approx. 168.28 sqm) and faces a public road with a width of 6.2 meters to the south, allowing for parking space for three or more vehicles.
The two-story wooden home features a 4LDK layout with a total floor area of 98.41 sqm. A highlight is the 17.0-tatami mat living, dining, and kitchen area which incorporates a staircase design that facilitates natural communication between floors and an open ceiling (atrium) that enhances the sense of space. The living room is equipped with floor heating throughout all rooms. The kitchen is a face-to-face type with a granite worktop and countertop, a deep dishwasher, and an IH cooking heater. The property includes a separate powder room and laundry room, with a 2-way flow line connecting the washroom, living room, and powder room to improve household efficiency.
Storage solutions include a walk-in closet (WIC), a shoe-in closet (SIC), and a loft. The home is an all-electric residence featuring solar power generation, a storage battery, and an eco-friendly water heater, making it gentle on both the environment and household finances. A 24-hour ventilation system with a humidification function maintains comfortable air quality throughout the home. Electric honeycomb shades are installed. The bathroom is over 1 tsubo in size with a reheating function and a dryer. Both the first and second floors have high-function toilets with warm water bidets. The second floor features a south-facing roof balcony. All rooms have flooring and double-glazed glass. The property uses city gas.
The location is a quiet residential area. It is a 4-minute walk from the Yamanote-minami bus stop, with bus services to Kurihama Station on the JR Yokosuka Line (5-minute bus ride) and Keikyu Kurihama Station (7-minute bus ride). The nearest elementary school is a 9-minute walk away.
