Blanciera Kokubu Central: A New Premium Residence in Kirishima
Blanciera Kokubu Central is a new premium condominium development under construction in Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture. With a design concept centered on "Yurugi" (fluctuation), the building aims to harmonize with Kirishima's natural environment and living culture. The exterior features glass handrails in a horizontal repetition of black, grey, and blue to create a sense of elegant movement, complemented by white mullions and greenery at the base.
The property offers a range of 3LDK and 4LDK layouts, with private areas ranging from 68.73㎡ to 96.49㎡ (including a 0.89㎡ trunk room). Balcony areas vary from 13.68㎡ to 17.73㎡, with additional service balcony areas from 3.76㎡ to 4.7㎡. The 12-story reinforced concrete building will house 66 units and is scheduled for completion in early February 2026, with handover expected in early March 2026. Residents will benefit from ample parking (87 spaces), a bicycle parking area, and shared facilities including an entrance lounge with wooden louvers and a terrace.
Key equipment and features include a water purification faucet in the kitchen, a built-in dishwasher, a sliding shower bar, a three-sided mirror with storage, deep wash basins, outdoor waterproof outlets, and a color monitor hands-free intercom. The building is pet-friendly (subject to management rules), employs double reinforcement in main walls for high earthquake resistance, and uses pre-cast concrete piles driven 23.85-34.85 meters deep for a solid foundation.
