Spacious 5LDK Family Home in Sapporo with Extensive Renovations
This substantial detached house, located in the Hassamu 8-jo 11-chome district of Sapporo's Nishi Ward, offers a generous 191.27 square meters of living space across three floors. Built in July 1998, the property sits on a 198.36 square meter plot of land and features a functional 5LDK layout. The home is conveniently positioned within an 8-minute walk from JR Hakodate Main Line's Hassamu Station and a 10-minute walk from the Sapporo Municipal Tozai Line's Miyanosawa Station, providing excellent access to public transportation.
According to the agent's special notes, the building structure is a hybrid wood and reinforced concrete construction with a galvanized steel sheet roof, forming a solid three-story residence. The property boasts numerous attractive features, including a built-in garage approximately 2.3 meters high and space for multiple vehicles (depending on the car type). There are toilets on both the second and third floors, and all Western-style rooms are a spacious 6.0 tatami mats or larger. A terrace connects to the second-floor living room, offering outdoor space. The house faces Hassamu-Soen-dori street on its northeast side. It is also remarkably close to Aeon Mall Sapporo Hassamu, just a one-minute walk away. The home uses kerosene for hot water and heating and includes ample storage space.
Significantly, the property is scheduled for a comprehensive renovation to be completed in mid-March 2026. This renovation plan includes the replacement of the kitchen, expansion and replacement of the unit bath, replacement of the washbasin vanity, replacement of both toilets, replacement of the hot water boiler and panel heaters, new lighting throughout, a new intercom system, replacement of second-floor fittings, new switch plates and outlet plates, new flooring throughout (including cushioned flooring in the toilets and utility room), new wallpaper in all rooms, exterior wall cladding, a new entrance door, replacement of manual shutters, conversion of a Japanese-style room to a Western-style room, replacement of the second-floor staircase handrail, and new screen doors.
The area of Sapporo's Nishi Ward is a well-established residential neighborhood known for its convenience and accessibility. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Miyanosawa Station is the western terminus of the Sapporo Subway Tozai Line and is integrated with a large shopping complex. For recreation and tourism, residents are within easy reach of the iconic Sapporo Clock Tower and the historic Former Hokkaido Government Office Building in the city center, both significant landmarks showcasing the region's unique architectural heritage.
