This substantial two-story wooden house, built in 1975, offers a rare combination of space and location in Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture. The property features a generous total floor area of 153.08 square meters spread across seven rooms, providing ample living space for a family. The layout is a 6DK, with the largest room being an 8-tatami mat Japanese-style room on the first floor.

Key equipment and features include a system kitchen with a counter and gas cooktop, a bath with reheating function and a bathroom dryer, a shower-equipped vanity, a bidet toilet seat, walk-in closets, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor-equipped doorphone, and underfloor heating.

Other utilities include public water supply, propane gas, sewer, a dedicated bath, a two-burner stove, hot water supply, a shower-equipped vanity, a private garden, and a balcony.
Special notes from the agent highlight that the property uses propane gas, which provides strong火力 for quick baths and cooking, and has faster recovery times in the event of a disaster. Important remarks include that the building-to-land ratio exceeds regulations, and there is an unregistered extension (the shelf part of the north-side veranda). Parking is available for one car.
The property is situated in a highly convenient neighborhood. A variety of daily life facilities are within walking distance, including convenience stores, banks, and the AEON Himeji store. Both elementary and junior high schools are also within a short walk. The location offers excellent access to public transport, being just a 7-minute walk from Nori Station on the JR Bantan Line. The area is rich in history, being in the shadow of the magnificent Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most iconic and pristine surviving feudal castles, located just a few kilometers away.
