Spacious Two-Generation Family Home in Sendai's Aoba Ward
This substantial property in Sendai's Aoba Ward presents a rare opportunity to acquire a large, custom-built home designed for multi-generational living. Located in the Yonegafukuro 3-chome neighborhood, this 7LDK residence boasts a generous building area of 219.44 sqm (approximately 66.38 tsubo) on a land area of 295.65 sqm (approximately 89.43 tsubo). Constructed in March 1995 by the reputable Sumitomo Forestry, the wooden two-story house is currently vacant and ready for its next occupants.
The home's layout is exceptionally well-suited for two families or extended family arrangements. Key features include an expansive LDK (living-dining-kitchen) area exceeding 20 tatami mats in size, a second-floor mini-kitchen, and a study room ideal for remote work. The property offers abundant storage with numerous closets and utility spaces, helping to keep rooms tidy. The bathroom is equipped with a window for easy ventilation, and the home features three separate toilets. A unique and cozy touch is the sunken kotatsu (heated table) in the Japanese-style room. A convenient back entrance provides easy access for tasks like taking out the trash.
As noted in the agent's remarks, there are vehicle type restrictions for parking. It is essential to verify this on-site during a visit.
The surrounding area offers excellent daily convenience. A local children's park is just a 4-minute walk away, while supermarkets like SEIYU, convenience stores (Seven-Eleven, Lawson), a post office, and specialty shops such as Niku no Ito butcher are all within a short walking distance. The nearest subway stations are Aobashi Station on the Sendai Municipal Subway Namboku Line (a 15-minute walk) and Gohashi Station on the same line (an 18-minute walk). The property is also within walking distance of local elementary and junior high schools.
Sendai, the largest city in Japan's Tohoku region, is known as the "City of Trees" for its beautiful, tree-lined boulevards. A major landmark not far from the Aoba Ward is the historic Sendai Castle (Aoba Castle) ruins, which sit atop Aobayama hill and offer panoramic views of the city, serving as a poignant reminder of the region's samurai history under its founder, Date Masamune.
