The property boasts a generous 52.02 sqm total floor area, with the living, dining, and kitchen (LDK) space alone measuring a spacious 12 tatami mats. This layout provides ample room for flexible furniture arrangement, making it easy to create a personalized living environment. The apartment comes equipped with air conditioning for year-round comfort.
Key facilities include an indoor washing machine space and all Western-style rooms. The property includes one standard parking space at an additional monthly cost of 8,800 yen. Important notes for prospective tenants include a monthly building maintenance management fee of 1,000 yen and a mandatory annual fire insurance premium of 7,000 yen. The agency commission is calculated as one month's rent plus the parking fee (plus consumption tax). There is also a key replacement fee starting from 25,000 yen (excluding tax), with the final amount varying based on the key type and number of keys required.
Viewings are currently possible by prior telephone appointment. The agent emphasizes that while photos and videos are for illustrative purposes, visiting the property is recommended to get a true sense of the space. Note that the condition of the air conditioning units will need to be verified upon moving out, with the current state taking priority. Applications can be submitted without a prior viewing, but applicants with complete documentation will be prioritized. If multiple applications are received on the same day, they will undergo simultaneous screening. A mandatory screening and enrollment with a rent guarantee company (Zenkoren) is required, involving an initial fee of 50% of one month's rent, with a minimum of 20,000 yen (14,000 yen upon annual renewal). The application and contracting process is conducted electronically.
The apartment is situated in the dynamic Aja district of Naha, the capital of Okinawa Prefecture. This area is part of the newer urban development, offering a blend of residential comfort and city amenities. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Omoromachi district, part of the New Urban Center, was developed on land that once housed a U.S. military base, symbolizing the city's post-war transformation. The closest major landmark is the vibrant Kokusai Dori (International Street), Naha's famous main boulevard known for its shops, restaurants, and lively atmosphere, located just a short drive or monorail ride away.
