Commercial Space in Fujisawa's Vibrant Shonandai Area
This commercial property is a unit within the "Hark Building," a four-story reinforced concrete structure built in April 1994. Located in Shonandai 2-chome, Fujisawa City, Kanagawa Prefecture, the space offers a usable area of 84.70 square meters (approximately 25.62 tsubo) on the second floor. The building is exceptionally convenient, situated just a 2-minute walk from Shonandai Station, which is served by the Odakyu Enoshima Line, the Sagami Railway Izumino Line, and the Yokohama Municipal Subway Blue Line, providing excellent multi-line access.
The unit comes with a range of facilities including air conditioning, an elevator, an indoor laundry machine space, CATV, and an auto-lock security system. A notable feature is the inclusion of existing interior fixtures, which are being transferred to the tenant free of charge. However, please note that these fixtures are considered "as-is" and come with no performance guarantee. The current fixtures include ceiling and wall wallpaper, floor tile carpeting, a toilet, a mini-kitchen with a single IH cooktop, lighting fixtures, the laundry machine space, air conditioning units, and partition walls. If the tenant does not wish to take over these fixtures, the landlord is open to consultation regarding skeleton work (returning the unit to a bare state). Upon moving out, the unit must be returned in this skeleton condition. Signboard installation is permitted free of charge in designated locations. For security, the building's auto-lock is engaged from 21:00 to 7:45, though entry and exit are still possible during these hours. Please note that restaurants (eating and drinking establishments) are not permitted in this unit.
Key financial terms include a monthly rent of 399,000 yen. A security deposit of 3,000,000 yen is required, with a 30% depreciation upon contract cancellation. Key money (reikin) is equivalent to one month's rent. There is no monthly management or common area fee. A rental guarantee company membership is mandatory. The initial guarantee commission fee is 100% of the total monthly rent and related amounts, followed by an annual renewal guarantee fee of 14,000 yen. Depreciation conditions for the security deposit are: 50% if canceled within one year, 40% if canceled within two years. The contract renewal fee is one month of the new rent amount. The standard contract period is 3 years.
The Shonandai area is a major commercial and transportation hub in southern Kanagawa. An interesting local fact is that the area's development was significantly planned around the station, creating a dense network of shopping complexes, department stores, and public facilities connected by pedestrian decks, making it a very pedestrian-friendly urban center. The closest major landmark is the Shonan International Village (Shonan Kokusai Mura) in nearby Hayama, a conference and cultural facility set in beautiful seaside hills, often used for international exchanges and events.
