Spacious Misawa Home in Himeji with Recent Renovations
This property is a previously owned detached house built by Misawa Home Kinki Co., Ltd., located in Shimoyobe, Yobe Ward, Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. The home sits on a generous plot of approximately 70 tsubo (232.06 sqm) with a building area of about 53 tsubo (178.45 sqm). It features a comfortable 6SLDK layout, including a Japanese-style room on the first floor, with the combined LDK space offering a spacious area of roughly 27.5 tatami mats. The second floor consists entirely of south-facing rooms that open onto a roof balcony, ensuring excellent sunlight throughout.
The property underwent partial renovations in February 2022. These updates include work on the water areas, such as the installation of a new water heater, faucets, stove, and toilet seat. Interior renovations were also completed, featuring wall and ceiling work with new wallpaper applied throughout all rooms.
Key equipment and features of the home include a system kitchen with a counter, an IH cooktop, a gas cooktop, a bath with reheating function and a dryer, a washbasin with shower, a bidet toilet seat, walk-in closets, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor-equipped doorphone, and underfloor heating. The home is all-electric and designed with barrier-free accessibility. It is south-facing and comes with a parking lot. Other notable equipment includes public water supply, propane gas, sewerage, separate bath and toilet, shower, three-burner gas cooktop, system kitchen, hot water supply, air conditioning, underfloor storage, BS antenna compatibility, flooring, a bathroom size of 1 tsubo or more (approx. 1.6m x 1.6m), a dishwasher, closets, a regular-shaped lot, two or more toilets, a roof balcony, and an electric shutter for the flat parking space.
Special notes from the agent highlight that the property is a vacant house (akiya) and ready for immediate handover. The construction company is Misawa Home Kinki Co., Ltd. The spacious 6SLDK layout provides a large living area, and the bright, wide engawa (veranda) of the Japanese room and garden add to the appeal. A supermarket and drugstore are located on the adjacent north lot, offering excellent daily convenience. The nearest major train station is Sanyo-Aboshi Station on the Sanyo Electric Railway Aboshi Line, approximately a 15-minute walk away.
The area of Yobe in Himeji offers a blend of residential comfort and accessibility. Himeji is famously home to Himeji Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Japan's most magnificent and well-preserved feudal castles, located just a short drive or train ride from the property. This historic landmark, also known as the White Heron Castle, attracts visitors from around the world and is a cornerstone of the region's cultural heritage.
