Renovated 4LDK Detached House in Muroran, Hokkaido
This fully renovated detached house in Muroran's Kashiwa-cho district offers a comfortable and modern living space on a spacious 229.59 sqm (approx. 69 tsubo) corner lot. The property features a south-facing orientation, ensuring excellent sunlight throughout the day. The total floor area is 105.54 sqm (approx. 31 tsubo) with a 4LDK layout, providing ample room for a family.
The comprehensive renovation, completed in March 2026, has transformed the property. Key updates include the replacement of the kitchen with a stylish artificial marble countertop unit, the installation of a larger 1-tsubo unit bath with a reheating function, and the exchange of the toilet for one with a heated washlet seat. The vanity unit in the washroom is new, featuring a three-way mirror with hidden storage shelves and a flat-bottomed basin ideal for soaking laundry. All interior walls have been re-papered, flooring replaced, lighting fixtures updated, and interior windows exchanged. The exterior has also been refreshed with new paint on the walls, roof, and foundation.
Significant layout changes were made to enhance functionality. The original 6-tatami Japanese-style room on the first floor was converted into a 6-jo Western-style room with a built-in closet. Similarly, the 4.5-tatami Japanese-style room on the second floor was changed to a Western-style room, with the closet converted from a traditional oshiire. The spacious 16-jo LDK (Living-Dining-Kitchen) area features recessed lighting to reduce a sense of压迫感. The property includes a newly installed entrance closet and a cold-climate-spec entrance door suitable for Hokkaido, complete with a TV door phone for security. Parking is ample, with space for four or more vehicles. The property also comes with a defect warranty covering issues like leaks and structural defects for two years after handover. Equipment includes a new kerosene tank and a water tap in the grounds for convenient car washing.
The area of Muroran is an industrial port city on Hokkaido's coast, known for its dramatic coastal scenery and the iconic White Love Bridge (Hakucho Bridge). A notable local landmark is the Cape Chikyu scenic lookout, which offers panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and the city. The property is conveniently located about a 4-minute walk from the Kashiwa-cho-mae bus stop, with access to Honwanishi Station on the JR Muroran Main Line.
