Spacious Family Home in Kumamoto's Popular Nagamine Area
This substantial two-story wooden house, built in October 1983, offers a generous living space of over 135 square meters (approximately 40.88 tsubo) in a highly sought-after school district of Kumamoto City's Higashi Ward. The property is situated on a large, well-shaped 202.93 square meter (approximately 61.38 tsubo) corner plot with excellent southern exposure.
The agent's notes provide detailed insights: The main source of natural light is south-facing, and the home was constructed by Misawa Homes Co., Ltd. The property is located within the particularly popular school zones of Takuma Minami Elementary School and Nagamine Junior High School. The interior living spaces are exceptionally spacious. The first floor features a combined living, dining, and kitchen area (LDK), a Western-style room, a Japanese-style room with an engawa (veranda), and a side corridor. The second floor boasts three additional Western-style rooms, all facing south for excellent sunlight. A remarkable feature is the inclusion of two walk-in closets, providing ample storage. In May 2018, the kitchen was upgraded to an all-electric system with an IH cooking hob and a dishwasher for easy cleaning and time-saving convenience. Wallpaper was partially replaced, and the flooring in the living room and Japanese-style room was renewed, making the home move-in ready, though additional renovations can be discussed. The all-electric system helps save on utility costs and reduces fire risk, and some banks may offer lower interest rates for such properties. The land is a valuable, regular-shaped corner plot in the southeast, ensuring great sunlight. The carport-style parking is designed to comfortably fit two standard cars. A resin wood deck expands the living space outdoors, perfect for sunbathing, children's pool play, or various other uses.
The Nagamine area in Higashi Ward is a well-established residential neighborhood known for its community atmosphere and convenience. An interesting local landmark is the Kumamoto City Zoological and Botanical Gardens, one of the few combined facilities of its kind in Japan, offering a delightful day out for families just a short distance away.
