A Modern Family Home in Kumamoto's Northern Ward
This newly built two-story wooden house, scheduled for completion in June 2025, offers a spacious 4LDK layout in a quiet residential area of Kumamoto City's Kita Ward. The property sits on a 123.62 sqm plot with a total floor area of 99.22 sqm, designed for modern family living with a focus on comfort, security, and resilience.
The home is equipped with propane gas, city water, sewer, side ditches, and electricity. The bathroom and toilet are separate, featuring two toilets, a bath larger than one tsubo (approx. 3.3 sqm), a shower, an auto bath, a shampoo dresser, a bidet toilet seat, and a bath dryer. The system kitchen includes a counter and a water purifier. The property features double-pane glass, a 24-hour ventilation system, flooring, a balcony, a garden, and under-floor storage. Security is enhanced with a dimple key, card key, TV monitor intercom, security camera, and fire alarm. Crucially, the house incorporates a seismic damping structure that uses a viscoelastic material, similar to that used in high-rise buildings, which deforms to absorb earthquake shaking, achieving an earthquake resistance grade of level 3.
Special notes highlight the property's barrier-free design, excellent sunlight, and space for two free parking spaces. The road fronts the north side of the property on a 4.4-meter wide public road with a frontage of 7.2 meters.
Key features include two walk-in closets on the second floor, providing substantial storage. The living room is adjacent to the changing room, allowing warmth from the living area to heat the changing room in winter by leaving the door open, a popular feature for those sensitive to the cold. The bath dryer is also effective during the humid rainy season.
Located in Kumamoto's Kita Ward, the area is known for its residential calm. A notable landmark is the Kumamoto Castle, a historic and iconic symbol of the city, located a short drive away and offering a glimpse into Japan's samurai history.
