Building your home in Japan can be more reasonable than you might think. Part of the reason for this is that buying a property often entails a lot of hidden costs—and you’re never sure quite what you’re getting. Conversely, doing it yourself means you can ensure everything is just how you want it to be. If you’re considering constructing your dream home in Japan, then Asentia Home, with their bilingual support and long experience dealing with an international clientele, can help you through the process step by step. That means from your very first inquiry until the day when you step across the threshold of your finished dwelling.

In previous issues Metropolis has talked with UK native Steve Gainer who had his dream home built with Asentia. We also gave an introduction to some of the nine star architects whom you can select to work on your building. But why choose Asentia to build your home in Japan?

Asentia Home is pioneer of a new paradigm in the Japanese housing scene. They are not purely a construction company, nor are they an architect firm. They are a holistic house-building service that takes care of every aspect, while involving the client—that’s you—in as much, or as little, as you wish.

Asentia has five principles underpinning their corporate philosophy. Number one, their job is not just to build a house, but to provide a service. That means they are with you every step of the way; never will they run off and abandon you to all the niggling details. Number two, everyone involved in the project comes together and interacts like a family; that means everyone, from the carpenter to the architect, are all in it together. Then, on the subject of supply, Asentia Homes and their collaborators are careful to choose the right materials to most efficiently accomplish the objectives of your housing plan.

Fourthly, Asentia Home is passionate about making distinctive, unique houses that can thereafter become landmarks of the city. Everyone wants their own home to be unique—after all, that’s one of the reasons why people opt to construct their own house—and Asentia and their architects understand that fully. What’s more, the serious and professional architects involved are keen to make something that they can be proud of: which is a guarantee that they will do their utmost to make it so.

Lastly, a global perspective is assured on all projects. That’s because, with the current environmental crises in the world, it’s crucial for everyone in the construction industry to take into account the little things that can be incorporated to make a new home ergonomic, energy efficient, and environmental. One example of this is solar panels that generate 100% of your energy needs during the summer, and 50-70% in winter. Apart from being good for the planet, this is also a significant saving for you—as is often the way.

Feel free to call or email Asentia Home for a free consultation. A full and detailed quote will be calculated and can be manipulated according to your needs. The friendly, bilingual staff will be happy to help you with any questions you might have.

Asentia is a holistic housing solution, bringing together the best elements from all over the Japanese industry. The idea is to make everything easy, efficient and enjoyable, as well as putting your desires as client and future resident at the very top of everything they do. So why not join the ranks of people who have taken the plunge, and make your dream dwelling a reality?
