Spacious 6LDK Family Home with Generous Land in Kobe's Northern Ward
This well-maintained used house, located in the quiet residential area of Izumidai, Kobe City's Kita Ward, offers a rare combination of generous space and practical living. Built in November 1977, the property sits on a substantial plot of land measuring over 223 square meters (approximately 67 tsubo), providing ample room for family life and parking for two vehicles. The house itself features a 6LDK layout with a total floor area of 115.45 square meters, spread across two stories.
According to the agent's notes, the property boasts several key features. The kitchen is a system kitchen with a counter, offering both functionality and ease of cleaning. It is equipped with a gas cooktop, allowing for powerful and precise cooking. The home is designed for accessibility and future-proofing, featuring a barrier-free layout and a first-floor living area that can function independently, with the LDK adjacent to a 6-tatami mat Japanese-style room. This creates a versatile space where opening the fusuma (sliding doors) of the Japanese room can combine it with the approximately 10.5-tatami mat LDK to form a spacious area exceeding 16 tatami mats, perfect for family gatherings or entertaining guests.
The property includes three Japanese-style rooms in total (one 8-tatami and one 6-tatami on the first floor, and a 6-tatami room on the second floor), providing calm, traditional spaces. Storage is abundant, with closets in every room, plus additional storage under the stairs and a separate storage room on the first floor. The second floor houses four rooms (three Western-style and one Japanese-style), allowing for dedicated children's rooms, a study, and bedrooms. A balcony on the second floor offers convenient laundry drying space. The floor plan ensures smooth movement, with the washbasin and bathroom conveniently located near the entrance. Other notable equipment includes a walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor-equipped doorphone, underfloor heating, a bath with reheating function and dryer, a shower-equipped vanity, and a washlet toilet seat. Utilities are public water, city gas, and sewer.
The surrounding area of Kita Ward offers a blend of suburban tranquility and accessibility. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Mount Rokko offers stunning night views over Osaka Bay, famously known as the "Ten Million Dollar Night View." The closest major tourist attraction is the Arima Onsen hot spring resort, one of Japan's oldest and most famous hot spring towns, accessible via the Kobe Electric Railway Arima Line from the nearby Kita Suzurandai Station.
