Renovated 3LDK Light Steel Frame House on Prime Corner Lot in Kure City
This detached house located in Oshikomi 2-chome, Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture, offers a comfortable living environment with recent renovations completed in March 2026. Constructed in July 1978 by Sekisui House, a major builder, the property features a light steel frame structure that meets new earthquake resistance standards. The total floor area is 96.74 square meters, situated on a generous land plot of 206.90 square meters.
The home has been fully updated to modern standards. The kitchen has been replaced with a new model from Housetec, featuring an artificial marble countertop that is resistant to heat and scratches, and deep drawers capable of storing tall items such as 1.8-liter bottles and stockpots. The bathroom is a new unit bath also from Housetec, equipped with a drying function to control humidity and prevent mold, which is convenient for drying laundry on rainy days. The toilet is a new model from Janis Industry with a warm water bidet and water-saving function. The washstand is a new Panasonic AWE model with a three-way mirror and storage space behind it.
The living room has been expanded to approximately 19.5 tatami mats by integrating an adjacent Japanese-style room, creating an open and spacious area. Walls and ceilings have been re-covered with new cross material, flooring has been overlaid, and lighting has been upgraded to LED. The second floor contains three Western-style rooms, all with renewed cross, flooring, lighting, and fittings. A large balcony with a roof and waterproof coating provides outdoor space, and a walk-in closet style storage area has been created with pipes for hanging clothes.
The property is a south-west corner lot, offering good sunlight exposure. The front road is approximately 6 meters wide, and the parking area has been redesigned to accommodate two standard-sized cars. Exterior walls and the roof have been repainted. The garden has been simplified with crushed stone to reduce weed growth. The entrance door has been cleaned and fitted with new locks, and a new color monitor intercom system has been installed. The stairs have been painted and fitted with non-slip treads. The property includes a 2-year warranty against the three major risks of used homes: roof leaks, structural defects, and plumbing issues. Termite prevention work has been carried out with a 5-year warranty.
The property is located in a quiet residential area designated as a Category 1 Low-Rise Residential Zone. It is about a 12-minute walk to a convenience store, and the nearest elementary school is about a 27-minute walk away.
