Shop-Residence in Nishinari Ward, Osaka: A Historic Property with Modern Convenience
This unique property in Osaka's Nishinari Ward presents a rare opportunity: a shop-residence (店舗付き住宅) built in 1925, offering both commercial and residential potential. Located approximately an 8-minute walk from Kishinosato-Tamade Station on the Nankai Electric Railway Shiomibashi Line, it provides excellent access to three major lines—the Nankai Main Line, Nankai Koya Line, and Osaka Metro Yotsubashi Line—via two nearby stations, making commuting and customer access highly convenient.
The property features a 2SDK layout with a total floor area of 84.21 square meters (wall center measurement) on a land area of 49.20 square meters (registered). A key characteristic is the land frontage of 4.2 meters, making it a viable candidate for redevelopment or rebuilding (建て替え用地としてもご検討下さい). The building is a two-story wooden structure, currently vacant (空家).

The area, Nishinari Ward, is a historically rich part of Osaka with a vibrant local culture. An interesting fact is that the nearby Shinsekai district, famed for its Tsutenkaku Tower and nostalgic atmosphere, was developed in the early 20th century as a futuristic entertainment district modeled on New York and Paris. The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Tsutenkaku Tower, a symbol of Osaka's downtown and a popular observation deck offering panoramic views of the city.
