Spacious Two-Story Detached House for Rent in Naha's Historic Shuri District
This detached rental house, known as the Shimojigashi Rental, offers a comfortable and convenient living space in the heart of Naha's Shuri area. The property is a two-story unit occupying an entire floor within a three-story reinforced concrete (RC) building constructed in April 1984. With a generous private area of 72.46 square meters (approximately 21.91 tsubo), the layout is a 2LDK configuration, featuring two Japanese-style rooms (each 6 tatami mats) alongside a living, dining, and kitchen area. The home is move-in ready and perfectly suited for families.
The property is well-equipped for modern living. The kitchen includes a gas stove and water heating. The bathroom and toilet are separate, and there is an independent washbasin area. Security is provided by a TV monitor intercom system, and storage is ample with a built-in shoe box. The unit is a corner room, offering additional light and privacy. A critical note from the agent regarding fees is that there is a 24-hour call service available for ¥1,100.
Located in Shuri Toribori-cho 2-chome, Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture, the house boasts an excellent location just a 5-minute walk from the Shuri Station on the Okinawa Urban Monorail (Yui Rail), providing easy access to the rest of the city. The area is rich in history, being the former capital of the Ryukyu Kingdom. A major nearby landmark is the UNESCO World Heritage site of Shuri Castle, a beautifully reconstructed palace that was the political and cultural center of the Ryukyu Kingdom for centuries, located just a short monorail ride or drive from the property.
