Newly Built Detached House in Okayama's Tranquil Hōsei District
This newly constructed detached house, completed in April 2024, is a pristine, never-lived-in residence located in the quiet residential neighborhood of Hōsei 1-chome, Minami Ward, Okayama City. The property offers a generous 3LDK layout across two stories, with a total floor area of 95.22 sqm and a land size of 107.61 sqm. It is situated on a well-shaped, flat plot with excellent southern sunlight exposure.
The property is equipped with comprehensive modern amenities. Facilities include running water, sewerage, a 3+ burner stove hookup, an energy-saving water heater, and separate bath and toilet areas. It features two toilets, a bath area over 1 tsubo (approx. 3.3 sqm) with a reheating function and a shampoo dresser. The kitchen is a counter-style with a pantry, and the home includes an indoor laundry space. For comfort and efficiency, it is fitted with double-glazed windows, downlights, a 24-hour ventilation system, and cushion flooring. All rooms have wooden flooring and built-in storage, including an entrance closet. Security features include a dimple key, a double-lock key, and a video monitor intercom.
Special notes highlight the property's accessibility features (barrier-free design), siding exterior, and its location in a peaceful residential area with no buildings directly in front. Parking for two cars is provided free of charge. The road frontage details specify a one-way, 4-meter wide public road to the south, with a 6.9-meter paved frontage.
Additional remarks emphasize the excellent transportation access: the Route 2 bypass is just a 5-minute drive away, and Routes 30 and prefectural roads are also easily accessible. Although it cannot be advertised as "brand new" due to being over a year old since construction, this is an unoccupied residence, making it essentially equivalent to a new build.
The area of Minami Ward offers convenient living with shopping facilities and hospitals nearby. An interesting local fact is that Okayama is famously known as the "Land of Sunshine" due to its low annual rainfall and abundant sunny days. The closest major tourist attraction is the stunning Korakuen Garden, one of Japan's Three Great Gardens, located approximately 6 kilometers north in central Okayama City.
