Spacious Wooden Home in Tsuruga with Southern Exposure and Modern Amenities
This detached wooden house, built in January 1982, offers a generous 121.38 square meters of living space across two floors on a 195.72 square meter plot in Tsuruga City, Fukui Prefecture. The property features a 4SDK layout, providing ample room for a family. A key advantage is its southern orientation, which ensures the home is warm in winter and facilitates quick drying of laundry. The property utilizes propane gas, noted for its strong flame that shortens bath heating and cooking times, and offers faster utility restoration in the event of a disaster.
Essential equipment and features include a system kitchen, counter kitchen, IH cooktop, gas cooktop, bath with reheating function and dryer, washbasin with shower attachment, washlet toilet seat, walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, TV monitor doorphone, and underfloor heating. The property is all-electric, barrier-free, south-facing, and includes a parking space. Other utilities include public water supply, a septic tank, and a dedicated indoor space for a washing machine, which helps prolong the appliance's lifespan. The water areas (kitchen, bathroom, toilet, washroom) were renovated in July 2009.
The property is currently vacant and ready for immediate handover. It is a 19-minute walk from Awano Station on the JR Obama Line. Within a 1,500-meter radius (approximately a 19-minute walk), there is a convenience store, and a supermarket is 1,600 meters away. The construction company was Takegasa.
The Tsuruga area is rich in history as a major port on the Sea of Japan. An interesting local fact is that Tsuruga Port was a critical point of arrival for Polish orphans rescued from Siberia after World War I, and a memorial commemorates this humanitarian effort. For visitors and residents alike, a major nearby landmark is the scenic Kehi no Matsubara, one of Japan's three great pine groves, featuring a beautiful 1.5-kilometer stretch of white sand and black pines along the coast.
