Renovated Family Home in Kani City, Gifu Prefecture
This detached house, located in the Tsuchida area of Kani City, Gifu Prefecture, is currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation. The property offers a substantial living space of 127.52 square meters across two floors, situated on a land area of 254.56 square meters. The layout features five bedrooms, a living-dining-kitchen area, and additional rooms, making it suitable for a large family or a multi-generational household.
The renovation includes the installation of a new, face-to-face kitchen from the manufacturer Housetec. This kitchen features four sliding drawers for ample storage and a countertop made from artificial marble, which is resistant to heat and scratches. The bathroom is being replaced with a new unit bath, also from Housetec, designed with a non-slip floor and an anti-slip bathtub surface for safety. The toilet is being upgraded to a new LIXIL model with a warm water bidet function, a smooth surface for easy cleaning, and a water-saving feature. The vanity unit is being replaced with a new Housetec model featuring a 75-centimeter wide washbasin and an electrical outlet. New handrails will be installed on the stairs, and all locks will be replaced for enhanced security. The exterior walls will be repainted to improve durability and protect the building.
The property includes two tatami rooms on the first floor, one of six tatami mats and one of eight tatami mats, which can be used as adjoining rooms for a larger space. A Western-style room of approximately six tatami mats is also located on the first floor, with a closet being newly installed. The second floor contains a Western-style room on the north side, where the closet and sliding doors have been replaced. The property also has a porch or veranda (hiroen) adjacent to the tatami rooms. The renovation includes replacing the tatami mat surfaces and shoji screens. The overgrown vegetation on the property has been cleared.
This property comes with a two-year warranty covering the three major risks of a used home: roof leaks, defects or corrosion in the main structural parts, and water leaks or malfunctions in the plumbing. The renovation was carried out after inspecting the underfloor area, and a termite damage survey and prevention treatment have been completed. The termite prevention work comes with a five-year warranty and includes two free inspections. The property is located in a quiet residential area designated as a Category 1 low-rise residential zone. It is within walking distance to Tsuchida Elementary School, and the Meitetsu Hirose Line's Kani River Station is about a 16-minute walk away. The property is currently vacant and ready for immediate occupancy.
