Renovated Corner Lot Home in Noboribetsu with Move-in Ready Updates
This charming 3LDK detached house in Noboribetsu, Hokkaido, is currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation to become a bright and comfortable family home. The property is situated on a spacious northwest corner lot, offering excellent sunlight and a sense of openness. The renovation, which is included in the listed price, encompasses a full interior update including new flooring, wall coverings, lighting, and fixtures.
Key features from the agent's notes include a large 19.5-jo (approx. 31.5 sqm) LDK with a double-height ceiling, creating an airy and expansive living area. The kitchen is being replaced with a new 2550mm system kitchen featuring a gas (propane) cooktop in a convenient facing layout. All wet areas are being completely renewed: the bathroom will feature a new 1-tsubo (approx. 3.3 sqm) unit bath for relaxing soaks, the washbasin and water heater are being replaced, and the toilet is being upgraded to a new heated bidet seat model. The entrance hall tiles and storage are also being refreshed, and the front door is being replaced with a new insulated model featuring a pick-resistant dimple key for security. The property includes a walk-in closet in the 9-jo master bedroom and a garden of approximately 5 tsubo (16.5 sqm), ideal for barbecues or children's play.
The exterior walls and roof were painted just two years ago by the previous owner. The property benefits from a covered entrance porch and a parking area for two cars on an asphalt surface. The location is highly convenient, within a 5-minute walk of Tomigishi Elementary School and a 10-minute walk to AEON Noboribetsu, a major shopping center for daily necessities. The area is also served by propane gas, noted for its strong flame and quick recovery after disasters.
The Noboribetsu area is famous for its natural hot springs and is a major tourist destination in Hokkaido. A fascinating local fact is that Noboribetsu Onsen is one of Japan's most famous hot spring resorts, drawing its waters from the volcanic Jigokudani ("Hell Valley"), a dramatic geothermal landscape. The closest major landmark is the iconic Noboribetsu Bear Park, where visitors can observe Hokkaido's native brown bears and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding area.
