Compact and Convenient Apartment in Yokosuka
This one-room apartment, located in the Takada Building in Yokosuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture, offers a practical and affordable living solution. The unit features a modest 19.39 square meters of private space. The building itself is a three-story steel-framed structure built in July 1978. It is conveniently situated within a 10-minute walk from Keikyu Main Line's "Kenritsu Daigaku" (Prefectural University) Station and a 14-minute walk from "Yokosuka Chuo" (Yokosuka Central) Station, providing easy access to central Yokosuka and beyond.
The apartment comes equipped with several facilities: city gas, hot water supply, a private toilet, a shower, an indoor space for a washing machine, CATV, a corner room layout, storage space, and a fire alarm. Important special notes include that pets are negotiable, two-person occupancy is allowed, consultations for elderly residents are available, and the unit can be used as an office. It is also categorized as a resort property. Additional remarks clarify that as the building is not new, minor scratches and signs of age-related deterioration may be present on the floors, walls, fixtures, and other areas. For corporate housing arrangements, an additional one month's rent is required as a security deposit. Key replacement is optional and quoted separately. If keeping a pet, an extra month's rent is required for both the security deposit and the key money. The renewal fee is equivalent to one month of the new rent.
The rental terms are straightforward with no security deposit (敷金なし) and no key money (礼金なし). There is also no monthly management or common area fee (管理費なし). The initial guarantee fee for the rent guarantee company is 50% of the total rent, with a monthly premium of 2,150 yen thereafter. A cleaning fee of 52,250 yen is required upon moving in.
Yokosuka is a port city with a rich naval history, famously hosting the Yokosuka Naval Base. A major nearby landmark is the Mikasa Museum, a preserved pre-dreadnought battleship that serves as a memorial ship and museum, offering a unique glimpse into Japan's maritime past.
