Renovated 3DK Apartment in Katsushika with Excellent Access to Central Tokyo
This property is a 51.52 sqm (approximately 15.58 tsubo) 3DK apartment located on the 3rd floor of a 6-story reinforced concrete (SRC) building constructed in March 1981. The apartment underwent a comprehensive interior renovation in August 2016, which included all flooring, walls, ceilings, and fixtures. The layout features three Western-style rooms of 6, 6, and 4.5 tatami mats respectively, with the main living spaces facing southwest, ensuring excellent sunlight and views.
The apartment is equipped with a bidet toilet, bathroom dryer, independent kitchen, closets, two or more air conditioning units, an indoor laundry machine space, security cameras, city gas, hot water supply, an elevator, a parcel delivery box, and a paid bicycle parking area (monthly fee of 300 yen). The building is managed by a full-service, daytime management company. Special notes highlight that the property is situated in a quiet residential neighborhood with adjacent buildings spaced more than 2 meters apart.
Located in the Higashi-Shinkoiwa 7-chome district of Katsushika Ward, Tokyo, the apartment offers superb convenience. It is an 11-minute walk from Shinkoiwa Station, served by the JR Sobu Main Line and Sobu-Chuo Local Line. From Shinkoiwa, rapid trains can reach Tokyo Station in just 14 minutes, and Shinjuku Station is accessible within 32 minutes. Daily life is supported by numerous amenities within a 5-minute walk, including supermarkets, convenience stores, a post office, and restaurants, making it ideal for commuting and daily errands.
The Katsushika area is known for its traditional atmosphere and waterways. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Shibamata district is famous as the setting for the long-running Japanese film series "Otoko wa Tsurai yo" (It's Tough Being a Man), centered on the beloved character Tora-san. The area offers a nostalgic glimpse into Tokyo's past. For a major tourist attraction, the historic Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa is easily accessible via train and represents one of Tokyo's oldest and most significant Buddhist sites.
