Spacious 4LDK Home in Tendō with Renovated Interiors and Ample Parking
This charming pre-owned house, located in Tendō City, Yamagata Prefecture, presents a fantastic opportunity for homeownership. The property is a 4LDK layout, offering generous living space across two stories. A key feature is the comprehensive interior renovation completed in 2015 (Heisei 27), which focused on the wet areas. The bathrooms and kitchen now boast modern finishes, and the walls have been treated with diatomaceous earth (kokedoro), a natural material known for its humidity-regulating and air-purifying properties.
The home's character is enhanced by unique design elements, including an arch-shaped plaster wall in the living room and a first-floor Japanese-style room fitted with Ryukyu-style tatami mats, which can serve as a guest room, children's play area, or future bedroom. The living room itself is spacious, providing ample room for family gatherings and furniture. Practicality is a strong suit, with abundant storage throughout all rooms, a large external storage shed (approximately 7.5 tatami mats in size), and parking space for three vehicles. The south-facing orientation ensures excellent sunlight, and the property sits on a sizable, regularly shaped plot of land over 79 tsubo (approx. 262 sqm).
Additional translated agent notes include: The toilet is equipped with a water-saving, economical heated seat bidet (washlet). The stainless steel kitchen sink is resistant to rust and heat, and its wide design makes cleaning easy. The bathroom is a comfortable 1-tsubo size (approx. 3.3 sqm) with a window. The property is located in a quiet residential area and is ready for immediate occupancy. A special note from the agent states: "Other: This information will be automatically reflected in other inquiries (discarded after 30 minutes) *Available only for some properties."
The area of Tendō is famously known as the "City of Shogi" (Japanese chess), as it produces over 90% of Japan's shogi pieces. A major landmark near the property is the historic Tendō Jinja shrine, a serene site with deep local roots. The home is also conveniently situated just a 7-minute walk from JR Tendō Station, providing access to the Yamagata Shinkansen and regional lines.
