Spacious Sekisui Heim Family Home with Modern Amenities in Himeji
This well-maintained single-family home, constructed in July 2007, offers a generous 5SLDK layout within a total floor area of 147.74 square meters. The property is situated on a 163.15 square meter plot of land in Himeji City's Katsuhara Ward, providing ample space for family living. A key feature is that it was built by Sekisui Heim, a renowned Japanese homebuilder known for quality construction and innovative housing systems.
The home is equipped with a comprehensive suite of modern amenities. The kitchen is a system kitchen with a counter, offering both functionality and ease of cleaning, and features an IH cooktop. For comfort, the property includes underfloor heating (a floor heating system) and a heat storage heating unit under the floor. The bathroom is fitted with a reheating function (追い焚き), ensuring a warm bath is always available, and includes a bath dryer. Additional conveniences include a shower-equipped vanity, a bidet toilet seat, a TV monitor doorphone for security, and a walk-in closet. The home also features storage in all rooms and utilizes a first-class ventilation system (Air Factory). Notably, it is an all-electric home (オール電化), incorporates barrier-free design elements, faces south for excellent sunlight, and comes with two free parking spaces. Solar panels are installed, adding an eco-friendly and potentially cost-saving feature.
The location is family-friendly, with Himeji City Katsuhara Elementary School approximately 250 meters away, about a 4-minute walk. The area offers convenient daily amenities, but its true appeal lies in its proximity to Himeji's cultural heart. The property is within reasonable access of Aboshi Station on the JR Sanyo Main Line. A major landmark and UNESCO World Heritage site, Himeji Castle—one of Japan's most spectacular and well-preserved feudal castles—is a defining feature of the region. The castle, often called the "White Heron Castle" due to its elegant white appearance, is a masterpiece of wooden architecture and a must-visit destination, drawing visitors from around the world to Himeji.
