Renovated Investment-Ready House in Hanyu, Saitama
This property is a renovated single-family house located in Hanyu City, Saitama Prefecture, offered for sale at 3.9 million yen. The house was originally built in August 1964 and has undergone a comprehensive renovation completed in December 2022. The renovation included updates to the kitchen, toilet, and water heater, as well as full interior work such as new flooring (cushion flooring), wall and ceiling wallpaper/paint throughout all rooms, and interior doors. The exterior walls were also refinished at that time.
The property features a 4DK layout with one Japanese-style room (4.5 tatami mats) and three Western-style rooms (each 6 tatami mats), plus a dining-kitchen area (5 tatami mats). The total building area is 73.07 sqm (approx. 22.1 tsubo) on a land plot of 175.57 sqm (approx. 53.11 tsubo). It is a single-story wooden structure. Key equipment includes a bath with re-heating function and a window, storage in all rooms, air conditioning (two or more units), internet readiness, lighting fixtures, and propane gas and water supply. Special notes highlight that the property is suitable for IT-based important explanations, is in a quiet residential area, and has two- to three-sided lighting. Important remarks mention that as an older building, there are some gaps; the entrance door and kitchen are recommended for future renovation; there is a step at the bathroom entrance; there are no storm shutters (雨戸); the north-side road is gravel; and piling work, if needed, is the buyer's responsibility. The agent notes that the property is also available for rent, seeking a monthly rent of 45,000 yen with a 5,000 yen common area fee. All financial terms are negotiable.
The location in Hanyu City offers a peaceful residential setting. An interesting fact about the area is that Hanyu is known for its traditional 'Hanyu Senbei' rice crackers, a local specialty. The closest major landmark is the historic Kawagoe (Little Edo) district, approximately a 30-minute drive away, famous for its well-preserved kura (warehouse) buildings and bell tower.
