NeXtage Akebono: A Well-Equipped Rental Apartment in Itarashiki, Okinawa
This property, NeXtage Akebono Unit 101, is a modern 2LDK apartment located in Itarashiki, Yonabaru Town, Okinawa. The unit is scheduled for vacancy at the end of March, with viewings potentially available from around April 3rd. As the current tenant is still in residence, viewings are not possible until after they move out. Applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis, and if an application is received before a viewing, the viewing opportunity will be lost. Move-in is anticipated from mid to late April, though this may extend over a month depending on the condition of the interior and contractor availability. The exact move-in date will be determined after inspecting the vacated unit and may not align with the applicant's preferred timing.
The apartment boasts a comprehensive list of facilities and features. Equipment includes a counter kitchen, separate bath and toilet, bathtub, gas clothes dryer, independent washbasin, cooling, air conditioning, closet, getabako (shoe storage), BS antenna, internet-ready with free Wi-Fi, monitor-equipped intercom, and an indoor washing machine space. Special notes highlight that there is no security deposit (敷金) or key money (礼金). It is a non-smoking property, a corner unit, and comes with two parking spaces (contract for two spaces is mandatory). The unit is well-equipped with free internet (Wi-Fi), air conditioning, BS antenna, color monitor intercom, gas clothes dryer, indoor washing machine space, dial-type collective postbox, and a security camera for peace of mind.
The layout features a face-to-face kitchen allowing you to cook while watching TV. All rooms are Western-style, with a separate Western room ideal for a bedroom or children's room. The presence of a bathtub allows for relaxing baths. The changing area offers spacious storage for detergents, towels, and clothing. Upon entering, a hall door provides privacy, preventing the interior from being seen by unexpected guests. The surrounding area offers excellent convenience. National Route 331 is a 1-minute drive away. Yonabaru Higashi Elementary School and Yonabaru Higashi Kindergarten are both a 4-minute walk (260m). Chinen High School is a 6-minute walk (450m), and Yonabaru Middle School is a 7-minute walk (550m). A FamilyMart is a 3-minute drive (950m), Marudai Supermarket is a 3-minute walk (240m), and other supermarkets like San-A Itarashiki and Big Sashiki are a short drive away.

For a major tourist attraction, the stunning Nakagusuku Castle ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are approximately a 20-minute drive away, offering breathtaking views and a deep dive into Ryukyuan history.
