Spacious Custom-Built Home in Machida with Unique Hidden Storage
This well-maintained, custom-built detached house is located in the Aihara-cho area of Machida City, Tokyo. Originally constructed by SXL (a former home builder), the property offers a generous total floor area of over 128 square meters on a land plot exceeding 65 tsubo (approximately 216 square meters). The home features a 4LDK layout plus a storage room (納戸), providing ample space for a growing family.
The property is an all-electric home (オール電化) equipped with an IH cooking stove, a built-in dishwasher, and a large pantry in the kitchen for efficient meal preparation and storage. The living, dining, and kitchen (LDK) area spans 19.5 tatami mats and features an open, face-to-face kitchen that allows for interaction with the family while cooking. A living room staircase is designed to keep the family connected. A dedicated 8-tatami mat Japanese-style room (和室) offers versatile use as a guest room, children's play area, or additional bedroom.
Unique to this home is a hidden storage room (納戸) accessible through a bookshelf door on the second floor, adding a playful element to the design. The second-floor hall is a flexible multi-purpose space that can be used as a second living room or exercise area. The master bedroom on the second floor includes a walk-in closet, and storage is thoughtfully placed throughout the home. An electric shutter is installed for the living room, and the Japanese-style room also features an electric shutter remote control. The property includes an underground parking space with a shutter and a storage area for motorcycles or larger items. The front gatepost is equipped with a mailbox and a large delivery box for receiving packages when not at home.
Conveniently located about a 13-minute walk from Aihara Station on the JR Yokohama Line, the area offers easy access to Yokohama and Hachioji. The neighborhood is family-friendly, with Machida Municipal Aihara Elementary School approximately 500 meters away and a supermarket about 600 meters from the home.
