Nice. My place are as big as your attic+ balcony and small bathroom heh. Where is this? Saitama?

[@muhammadariqalhabsyi4816]

Soooo pretty..

[@attianoreen1440]

Very nice. ❤

[@menobouken]

Thank you! I’m glad you liked it!

[@rameesha6782]

Looks lovely. is there any boundary walls between houses?

[@menobouken]

Thank you, Rameesha! Yes! There are boundaries, but not walls. It’s more like a low knee height-ish wall and fence that is about half of a person. It’s very typical to Japanese houses, unless it’s a big lot for one family or owner.

[@v.dokk.5596]

I saw many videos showing houses in Japan and I think this was actually the best one! Please tell me, is this at Saitama Prefecture? It looks like lots of people choose to live there since it has better value than Tokyo...

[@menobouken]

Aww! Thank you so much! Yes, Tokyo is quite a busy area to live, and surrounding prefectures or not the city centre provide better value (at least for me).

[@manahasegawa8063]

when do you move there? how do you furnish it in Japan?

[@menobouken]

Hi Mana :) we are moving in this month! And we are furnishing from IKEA and nitori 😇 as it’s affordable!

Whats the name of the door at the kitchen thank you

[@menobouken]

Hmm… back door? Kitchen door?? Lol 😅 I think it’s just called the kitchen door, for when you want ventilation from kitchen cooking.

[@nicholasdugdale]

I love the simplicity of Japanese engineering. I love it so much I race a Japanese car.

[@menobouken]

[@menobouken]

[@anggaseta651]

this a very nice house, but don't they have any carport or garage in their house in japan?

[@menobouken]

Hey Angga Seta :) yes! Definitely! Although some houses in Japan don’t have carports 😅 our house has carport, we can park upto 2 cars. We don’t have the shade though, but we can definitely build one!

Thank you 😌

[@Jujubee-db5vm]

How much mo overall nagastos nyo po bibili narin po ako house e nagtitingin na po ako

[@menobouken]

Hi po:) overall estimate is different for prefectures po. But around 3500万 to 4500万 is your average. Tapos, there are other fees so think about it as: the house and lot plus 10% is your final price. Of course, there are loans you can use as well. Mortgage loans in Japan is usually at 0.3% to 1%.

[@fariaisrat9119]

How much the price of the your house?

[@menobouken]

Hi there ❣️ houses around the area is around 30mil to 50mil yen, and we are in the 40mil range !

[@sumankhadka3181]

What's the total amount for the house?

[@thehungrygoldfish]

One rupee!

[@billblaski9523]

Is this a 4LDK?

[@menobouken]

Hi Bill :) yes! It is 4LDK

[@LaloPaddy]

Beautiful house. Can i have it?

[@menobouken]

Thanks 😇 but I already made a home out of it 😅😅😅😅

[@radhe_radhe_ji_001]

Please upload the map

[@abe1903]

Hi is this in Tokyo?

[@menobouken]

Hi 😇😇😇 it’s not Tokyo but it’s a very close proximity to the city :)

[@abe1903]

woah, is it a good neighborhood for family? Reason I asked me and my family are moving there January , and we are currently looking for a house

[@menobouken]

@@abe1903 oh wow! That’s great, well most places/neighbourhood in Japan is already a good place! So I don’t think you’ll struggle to find a great place!

[@ikoyola]

how much was it?☺️

[@menobouken]

Hi there 😇😇 at the time we purchased, it was around 34million yen 😇

[@ikoyola]

@@menoboukenis that the average price of a home as yours? I find the house very spacious and nice! The housing in united states will be the same price, yet very dirty houses. I plan to go to collage there😆

[@menobouken]

@@ikoyola hmm. Well depending on the prefecture or the location the average May differ. For example, in Tokyo central, you won’t see much of this price it’s more about 45mil to 60mil on average (I would say… I may be wrong though 😅) but, a little bit further away from Tokyo centre you’ll see more 30mil to 40mil houses 😊😊😊 Oh have you decided which part of Japan you’re going???

[@ikoyola]

@@menobouken Most likely around Osaka or Sapporo😊

[@menobouken]

@@ikoyola both prefectures have great food!!! Hokkaido has awesome outdoors and Osaka great attractions too!!! Good luck with your adventure 😉

[@aditisp4743]

Could u share the rent info😅😅

[@menobouken]

Oh no no, we bought the house. So not rental.

[@aditisp4743]

Oh ok its a pretty dope house👌👌

[@salamander337]

What a nice and cute house but it has a lot of unnecessary parts to it. Like the sliding doors in between the two rooms upstairs. Why do that? There's no privacy. And they should of place the entrance to the attic outside the room to make it an extra bedroom for an extra family member or guest. I also wonder why all the window are blurry like bathroom windows and not clear? The bottom floor is fine. The kitchen and living are cool. But no garage. A man have to have a garage for his car & tools. 😁

[@menobouken]

Hey 😊😊😊 the sliding door in the room is to make that room bigger. And as for the windows, that’s for privacy - neighbours in Japan are quite close to each other and so that happens. There is a garage, it isn’t just like how it is in America. It’s pretty rare in Japan to have something similar like that, afterall, it is in Japan and it is a typical house found in Japan. I do want a garage though 😅

[@salamander337]

@me no.bouken Don't Japan use window curtains? I guess the double room can come in handy if you want a bigger room for yourself. 😆

[@menobouken]

@@salamander337 lol yes! Of course, we do use curtains, but just an extra privacy 😅

[@teresateodoro5396]

Do u speak tagalog?

[@menobouken]

Oo naman po:)

[@danielkimuyu3044]

When am I going to move in.I live like an American slave.This is hope for me.Make it urgent.
