Modern Family Home in Kobe's Nagata Ward with Excellent Transport Links
This recently built detached house, constructed in October 2024, offers a modern and convenient lifestyle in Kobe's Nagata Ward. The property is strategically located just a 6-minute walk from Kobe Kosoku Line's Kosoku-Nagata Station, providing excellent access to the city. The layout is designed for practicality and family living, featuring a 2SLDK configuration with a total floor area of 80.93㎡ on a 61.85㎡ plot of land.
The home is equipped with a comprehensive range of modern amenities. The kitchen is a highlight, featuring a counter-style design that allows for interaction with family while cooking. It is fitted with a three-burner gas hob that includes a grill, enabling simultaneous cooking, and comes with a dishwasher. A large kitchen board provides ample storage for dishes and pots. The bathroom includes a bathtub spacious enough to stretch out and relax, with an adjustable shower head. The property boasts two toilets, one on each floor, both equipped with warm-water washing toilet seats (bidet functions) for year-round comfort. The entrance has a built-in shoe box with a full-length mirror, and the home features a roofed balcony, protecting laundry from sudden rain.
Additional equipment and features include a system kitchen, dedicated bath and toilet, indoor washing machine space, flooring throughout, a walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor intercom, and underfloor heating. The property is also noted for being barrier-free and south-facing. A notable feature is the covered carport, which makes getting in and out of the car easier on rainy days (subject to vehicle type). The living-dining room is located on the second floor, designed with consideration for natural light and privacy, allowing the family to relax without concern for outside views. The agent's notes emphasize the convenient three-way access for commuting and schooling: a 6-minute walk to Kosoku-Nagata Station, a 6-minute walk to the subway Seishin-Yamate Line's Nagata Station, and an 11-minute walk to JR Tokaido Main Line's Hyogo Station. The surrounding area is convenient for daily life, with a convenience store (Seven-Eleven) a 3-minute walk away, and supermarkets like A-Price and Gourmet City within a 6-8 minute walk.
The Nagata Ward area of Kobe has a rich history, having been a major center for the shoe and leather industry in Japan. Today, it's a vibrant residential district. A major landmark not far from this location is the iconic Kobe Port Tower, a symbol of the city's recovery and resilience, located approximately 5 kilometers away in the harbor area, offering spectacular views of the port and the surrounding mountains.
