New ZEH Homes with Solar Power in Kochi City
This new development in Kochi City's Asakura area presents two modern, energy-efficient homes designed for comfortable, sustainable living. Both units are Net Zero Energy Houses (ZEH) equipped with a substantial 6.600kW solar power generation system as standard, helping to significantly reduce monthly utility costs. The properties feature a 4LDK layout, offering spacious living areas. Building 14 provides 103.02 square meters of floor space on a 121.53 square meter plot, while Building 16 offers 95.90 square meters on a 107.49 square meter lot. Building 16 benefits from a south-facing corner location, ensuring excellent sunlight.
Key features include an all-electric specification with an IH cooktop, a dishwasher, a bathroom with ventilation, drying, and heating functions, a water-saving warm-water washlet toilet, a hand shower faucet with a built-in water purifier, and energy-efficient Low-E double-glazed windows. The homes also boast ample storage, including a large shoe closet in Building 14. The development includes parking for 2-3 vehicles.
According to the agent's notes, the sale can also include the solar power generation system. The price with the solar system included is an additional +1,000,000 yen. This price is conditional on the customer utilizing the "roof rental system," where the company installs the solar power system on the customer's roof. The solar power generation system will be transferred to the customer free of charge after 10 years of operation from the start of power generation. Purchasing with the solar power system is possible, in which case the customer will receive the income from solar power sales. A limited-time price campaign is available with specific conditions: contracts must be signed by February 28, 2026, with property handover by April 30, 2026, for purchasers of the target built-for-sale properties. Rights become invalid if the contract is canceled due to the customer's circumstances after signing. These rights cannot be transferred to others or exchanged for money or other items.
The property is located in a convenient area, with a supermarket and park within a 6-minute walk, making it suitable for a wide range of residents. The Asakura area offers a blend of suburban tranquility and accessibility. An interesting fact about Kochi Prefecture is that it is famous for its vibrant Sunday market, "Kochi Sunday Market," which stretches over a kilometer and has been a weekly tradition for over 300 years. The closest major landmark is the historic Kochi Castle, one of Japan's few original castles that has survived since the Edo period, located approximately 6 kilometers from the property.
