Spacious 4LDK Family Home in Sapporo's New Kotoni Area
This charming two-story wooden house, built in February 2010, offers a generous 126.64 sqm (approx. 38.3 tsubo) of living space on a substantial 194.41 sqm (approx. 58.8 tsubo) plot in Sapporo's New Kotoni district. The property features a 4LDK layout, perfect for family living, and comes with the significant advantage of having undergone a comprehensive renovation scheduled for completion in December 2025. This renovation includes a full kitchen replacement with a dishwasher, a new bathroom with a reheating function, replacement of toilets on both floors, a new vanity unit, a new water heater, new wallpaper, cushioned flooring, and a full house cleaning.
The home is designed with light and space in mind. The living-dining-kitchen area is a spacious approximately 19.6-jo (tatami mats) and benefits from three-sided lighting facing southeast, southwest, and northwest, ensuring excellent sunlight. A lofted ceiling in the living room adds to the sense of volume. The kitchen is a modern, face-to-face style with a 3-burner gas stove. All bedrooms include storage, and the second-floor rooms enjoy two-sided lighting. Practical features include parking space for two cars (with some vehicle restrictions), two storage sheds, and a front road width of over 6 meters. The property is equipped with an energy-saving Eco-Jose gas water heater for hot water and heating.
Located in a quiet First Category Low-Rise Residential zone, the area offers convenient daily living. New Kotoni Nishi Elementary School is just a 5-minute walk away, and a supermarket is within a 15-minute walk. For transportation, it's a 2-minute walk to the "New Kotoni 12-jo 15-chome" bus stop, with a 15-minute bus ride to Asob Station on the Sapporo Municipal Namboku Subway Line.
The New Kotoni area is a well-established residential neighborhood in Sapporo's Kita Ward, known for its community atmosphere and accessibility. An interesting local fact is that the name "Kotoni" is derived from the Ainu language, meaning "place where there is a marsh." The area provides a balanced lifestyle, being both peaceful and well-connected. The closest major landmark is the iconic Sapporo Clock Tower, a historic symbol of the city located approximately 7 kilometers south in the city center, easily accessible via the subway line.
