Full description
Primary light-receiving aspect: south-facing, high ceiling (2.5m+), distance to adjacent buildings 2m+, square-shaped lot, quiet residential neighborhood, in subdivision. Remarks: Built in Showa 61 (1986), the craftsman carefully selected materials and used all-hinoki (Japanese cypress) wood. When looking at the true-wall pillars around the Japanese rooms, the high-quality hinoki wood without knots is particularly evident. The building's appearance features a stone-paved approach and stone-faced walls at the entrance from the road, creating an upscale impression. The spacious entrance hall, with its open high ceiling and light from the central courtyard garden accessed from the road, welcomes visitors with a serene residential-area ambiance. The building is designed with natural light and ventilation throughout all rooms, a popular area in Takaoka Nomura.
