A Spacious Traditional Home in Niigata's Higashi Ward
This expansive property at 12-13 Ko'ei 1-chome in Niigata's Higashi Ward offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial piece of Japanese architectural heritage. Built in 1967, the house features a classic hip-and-gable roof design and spans over 410 square meters of living space across two stories. The layout is exceptionally generous, with a 14DK configuration that includes multiple Japanese-style rooms, Western-style rooms, and storage spaces, all set on a 1,005 square meter plot of land.
The Higashi Ward area of Niigata City is known for its residential charm and proximity to natural beauty. An interesting local fact is that the region is famous for its high-quality Koshihikari rice, which benefits from the pure snowmelt water from the surrounding mountains. The closest major landmark is the Japan Sea, which the property's elevated position offers views of, and the Niigata City Aquarium Marinepia Nihonkai is a significant tourist attraction approximately 6 kilometers away, showcasing the diverse marine life of the sea the property overlooks.
