What is a typical expat home or apartment like in kobe?

Answer this Question

We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in kobe is like. They answered...

"A typical expat home or apartment in Kobe, Japan, is often located in the city's international districts, such as Kitano or Rokko Island. These homes are usually modern, spacious, and well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. They often feature a blend of Western and Japanese architectural styles, with some homes having traditional Japanese elements like tatami mat rooms and sliding doors. The kitchen is usually compact but functional, often equipped with modern appliances. The living area is typically spacious, with large windows that let in plenty of natural light and offer views of the city or the surrounding nature. Some apartments may also have small balconies. The bedrooms are usually cozy and comfortable, often featuring built-in storage spaces. Many expat homes also come with additional facilities like a gym, pool, or a communal garden. Despite being in the city, these homes are often located in quiet, peaceful neighborhoods, offering a respite from the bustling city life," wrote a member who made the move to kobe, Japan.
