Spacious Modern Home in a Quiet Corner of Himeji
This recently built detached house, constructed in February 2020, offers a rare opportunity to own a practically new, custom-built home from a reputable house maker. Located on a corner plot in Himeji's Hirohata ward, the property provides a sense of openness and privacy. The spacious living, dining, and kitchen area spans approximately 22.2 tatami mats, creating a comfortable and airy environment for family life.
The home is equipped with a range of modern amenities for convenience and comfort. The kitchen features a counter-style layout with a system kitchen and an IH cooking hob, allowing the cook to interact with family in the living area. The bathroom is fitted with a reheating function, ensuring a warm bath is always available, and includes a bath dryer. Additional features include a shower-equipped vanity, a heated toilet seat, underfloor heating, and a TV monitor-equipped doorphone for secure visitor screening. The property is fully electrified and incorporates barrier-free design elements. All rooms come with built-in storage, and a walk-in closet is also provided. The layout is flexible, with the potential for modification using partitions.
Agent notes highlight the property's key selling points: a Reiwa 2 (2020) construction, making it a relatively new build; custom construction by a house maker; a spacious LDK of about 22.2 tatami mats; an open-feeling corner location; a garden space on the south side; and the possibility to change the floor plan with partitions. The property is currently vacant and ready for immediate handover.
The Hirohata area of Himeji is a well-established residential district. An interesting local fact is that the area was historically known for its connection to the old Hirohata Steel Works, which played a significant role in Japan's industrial development. The closest major landmark is the iconic Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most magnificent surviving feudal castles, located approximately a 15-minute drive or train ride from the property.
