New Construction Detached House in Hikone's Takamiya District
This newly constructed detached house in Hikone's Takamiya district offers a modern and comfortable living space designed for families. The property is part of the "Livele Garden.S" series, which emphasizes safety, quality, and cost control to deliver a well-built home. The construction is already completed, allowing for immediate occupancy.
Key features of the home include a bright, south-facing living-dining-kitchen (LDK) area that promotes family interaction, with a spacious layout that can accommodate a children's play area. The kitchen is equipped with a built-in water purifier in the faucet and a safe, easy-to-clean IH cooktop. The house includes two toilets (one on each floor) for convenience, a bathroom with a window for natural light and ventilation, and a bathroom heater/dryer for year-round comfort. Other notable amenities include a color monitor intercom, a built-in water purifier in the kitchen faucet, and a 24-hour ventilation system.
According to the agent's notes, the property is within walking distance of local schools: Takamiya Elementary School is an 11-minute walk, and Hikone Junior High School is a 20-minute walk. The agent also provides detailed financing information: a zero-down-payment, full loan is possible. An example loan scenario presented is for 23.5 million yen at a variable annual interest rate of 0.62% over 50 years, resulting in monthly payments of 45,560 yen with no bonus payments. The agent notes that loans are subject to certain eligibility requirements and the applicable interest rate will be the one at the time of funding, which may differ from the stated rate.
The area of Hikone is rich in history, famously centered around Hikone Castle, one of Japan's few original castles from the Edo period that has survived intact. This National Treasure and UNESCO World Heritage site is a major tourist draw, offering a glimpse into Japan's feudal past. The property provides a peaceful residential setting while being well-connected, with Takamiya Station on the Ohmi Railway Main Line approximately a 12-minute walk away.
