A Modern Sanctuary in the Serene Hills of Ujitawara
Nestled within the designated "Ryokuenzaka" area, a First Category Low-Rise Residential Zone, this property offers a living environment defined by abundant greenery, tranquility, and calm. It is the ideal location for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, feel the breath of nature, and realize a peaceful, high-quality lifestyle.
This near-new property was built in February 2021 and is in exceptionally clean condition. It features a spacious LDK (Living, Dining, Kitchen) area of over 20 tatami mats with ceilings higher than 2.5 meters, centered around an open-plan island kitchen. This design allows for enjoyable communication with family and guests while cooking. The kitchen is equipped with an IH cooktop, which offers high safety as it doesn't use an open flame and is easy to clean. The property is designated as an all-electric home.
The expansive bathroom features high-quality materials and a design unified in calm tones, reminiscent of a luxury hotel suite. It includes a reheating function for the bath, ensuring a warm bath is always available. The vanity area is clean and sophisticated, with a wide counter and large mirror. A tankless toilet, which is easy to maintain and makes the space appear larger, is also installed. The home includes a walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor-equipped doorphone, and underfloor heating. A unique feature is a separate space that is perfectly suited for use as a meditation room for yoga, meditation, or mindfulness practice.
Positioned on a northwest corner lot on a hilltop, the property boasts an overwhelming land area of approximately 135 tsubo (about 449.55 sqm). The unobstructed views are truly spectacular, with the sunset seen from the terrace offering a special moment to soothe the day's fatigue. The property is barrier-free and south-facing. Parking is available for three cars at no extra cost.
The area of Ujitawara in Kyoto Prefecture is renowned as the birthplace of Uji tea, specifically the renowned "gyokuro" variety. A short drive away, you can immerse yourself in this history at the Nagomi-no-Sato Tea Museum or explore the scenic tea fields that blanket the rolling hills. The closest major landmark is the historic Byodo-in Temple in the nearby city of Uji, a UNESCO World Heritage site famed for its stunning Phoenix Hall, depicted on the 10-yen coin.
