A Newly Built Family Home in Maizuru, Kyoto
This newly constructed detached house, scheduled for completion in January 2026, offers modern living in the historic port city of Maizuru, Kyoto Prefecture. The property features a spacious 3LDK layout with a total floor area of 95.41 sqm, built on a generous 138.61 sqm plot. The design emphasizes both functionality and aesthetic appeal, with a neutral color palette creating a calm and sophisticated interior. The layout allows the kitchen to overlook the living-dining area, fostering daily conversation, while clever storage solutions, including under-floor storage and walk-in closets, ensure a clutter-free environment.
The home is equipped with comprehensive modern facilities. These include a system kitchen with a counter, an IH cooking heater, a dishwasher/dryer, and an all-electric system. The bathroom is over 1 tsubo (approx. 3.3 sqm) in size and features a bath with a re-heating function and a bathroom dryer for comfort. Other notable equipment includes two toilets, double-pane glass windows, a TV monitor intercom, and a dimple key system for enhanced security.
Critical property notes detail the infrastructure and legal considerations. The property is connected to public water and sewer systems. The road frontage is on a 5.9-meter wide public road to the west, providing one-sided access. Importantly, the property is located within a quasi-fire prevention zone, which imposes specific legal restrictions on construction materials and methods to enhance fire safety in the neighborhood.
Located in Maizuru's Kuratsuji-cho area, the residence is just a 7-minute walk from Higashi-Maizuru Station on the JR Maizuru Line, offering convenient access to Kyoto and beyond. Maizuru is renowned for its scenic bay and unique naval history, being the home port of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. A major local landmark is the Maizuru Red Brick Park, a collection of beautifully preserved early 20th-century brick warehouses that now house museums and shops, offering a fascinating glimpse into the city's past as a naval district.
