History
Kita-Suzurandai Station opened on 6 April 1970 on the Shintetsu Arima Line between Suzurandai and Yamanomachi, in Kita-ku, Kobe, to serve the newly opened Shintetsu Kita-Suzurandai New Town developed by the Shintetsu group. The station building was rebuilt in September 1980, and a two-storey station-building complex was completed in October 1981. A 1994 renovation added stairways linking the up and down platforms to the ticket gate, three elevators and an accessible toilet. Because the station and its two opposed side platforms sit in a cutting, the concourse is on the first basement floor and the platforms on the second; the stop is numbered KB07 and sits at an elevation of 346 m.

Notes
At 346 m elevation, Kita-Suzurandai is the third-highest stop on Shintetsu after Arima Onsen (357 m) and Ōike (350 m); both of those are at-grade, so the station-front plaza here actually matches Arima Onsen in height despite the platforms sitting in a cutting.
