Renovated Single-Story Home in Gifu City
This single-story wooden house, built in October 1976, is located in the Ohora Kashiwadai 5-chome area of Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture. The property has undergone a full renovation scheduled for completion in May 2026, including updates to the interior and exterior. The land area is 209.45 square meters, with a building area of 94.91 square meters. The layout is a 2LDK, created by connecting two traditional Japanese-style rooms (washitsu) to form a spacious living-dining-kitchen area of approximately 21 tatami mats in size.
The renovation included the installation of a new system kitchen from the manufacturer Housetec, featuring a wide counter of about 255 centimeters and deep drawers capable of storing tall items such as 1.8-liter sake bottles and large stockpots. The three-burner gas stove allows for simultaneous cooking. A new unit bath was also installed, with a bathtub spacious enough for adults to stretch their legs. A new toilet with a smooth, seamless surface for easy cleaning and water-saving functionality has been fitted. The vanity unit was replaced with a new Panasonic model, featuring a large 75-centimeter-wide washbowl suitable for face washing, hair washing, and soaking laundry, and includes an electrical outlet. The water heater has been replaced with a new automatic model that stops when the set temperature or water volume is reached and automatically reheats when the water cools. The entrance door and lighting fixtures have been replaced, and the shoe cabinet is new. Ceilings and walls throughout have been re-covered with new cross (wallpaper), and flooring has been replaced with new flooring material. A dining kitchen area has been converted into a Western-style room. Storage in the hallway has been refitted with new fittings and a plywood finish. The exterior has been repainted, including the walls and roof, and garden trees have been removed. The property features a seismic-resistant structure. The termite prevention treatment comes with a five-year warranty from the construction date, covering the treated areas, and includes two free inspections.
The property is located on a corner lot with road frontage on two sides. The site is zoned as a Category 1 exclusively low-rise residential area. Parking is available for two cars in a tandem configuration. The property is currently vacant and ready for occupancy. The building coverage ratio is 50%, and the floor area ratio is 80%. The neighborhood is a quiet residential area with low traffic volume. Nearby amenities include the Gifu City Akutami Higashi Elementary School (about 800 meters away), the Aikawa Higashi Junior High School (about 450 meters away), and a Co-op Gifu Akutami store (about 1.7 kilometers away).
