A Modern Wooden Home in Historic Kamakura
This recently built detached house, constructed in April 2020, offers a spacious and modern living environment in the highly desirable city of Kamakura, Kanagawa Prefecture. The property features a generous 4LDK layout within a total floor area of 105.99 sqm (approximately 32.06 tsubo), providing ample room for family life. The land itself is a substantial 224.84 sqm (approximately 68.01 tsubo), situated on a gentle slope within a designated Category I Medium-to-High-Rise Residential Zone.
Critical property details from the agent notes include the road access situation: it is a one-sided road facing northeast, with a public road width of 5 meters and a frontage of 15 meters. The land is not positionally designated. An additional remark notes the reference number B21958-001671. The home is a two-story wooden structure with a building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 150%. Parking is available, and the current owner is in residence, with a planned handover date in late December 2025.
The location in Kamakura offers a unique blend of historical significance and natural beauty. While the property is approximately a 21-minute walk from Ofuna Station, providing access to multiple train lines, the area is renowned for its deep cultural roots. An interesting fact is that Kamakura served as the de facto political capital of Japan during the Kamakura shogunate from 1185 to 1333, leaving a legacy of numerous temples and shrines. The closest major landmark is the iconic Great Buddha of Kamakura (Kotoku-in), a monumental outdoor bronze statue of Amida Buddha that is both a national treasure and a powerful symbol of the city's heritage.
