Modern and Convenient 1LDK Apartment in Sapporo's Higashi Ward
This well-maintained apartment offers a comfortable living space in Sapporo's Higashi Ward. The property is a 1LDK layout with a total private area of 35.85 sqm (approximately 10.84 tsubo), featuring a 4.8-tatami mat Western-style room and a combined 9.3-tatami mat Living-Dining-Kitchen area. The apartment is located on the 2nd floor of a 4-story reinforced concrete (RC) building constructed in March 2012.
Key features and equipment include a separate bath and toilet, a washroom with an independent washstand, a heated toilet seat, air conditioning, kerosene heating, ample storage space and a shoe box, an indoor washing machine space, and an auto-lock security system with a monitor. The unit is a corner room benefiting from two-sided natural light. The building underwent exterior renovation, including wall and painting work, completed in August 2024. Internet usage is free of charge, and hot water is supplied via propane gas.
Important notes: The interior photographs shown are of a different unit within the building. This particular room is a mirrored (reversed) layout version of the floor plan. The property is currently occupied, with an expected move-in date of early April 2026.
The monthly cost is 54,000 yen in rent plus a 3,000 yen management/common area fee. There is no key money (reikin) and no security deposit (shikikin). The contract period is 2 years with a renewal option and no renewal fee. Tenant insurance is required (approx. 15,000 yen for 2 years via the agency's designated provider), and a rental guarantee company must be used. The property is non-smoking.
The location is highly convenient, within an 11-minute walk from both the North 13-Jo Higashi Station on the Sapporo Municipal Subway Toho Line and the North 18-Jo Station on the Namboku Line. The area is residential yet well-serviced, with a Lawson convenience store just 126 meters away. A fascinating local fact is that Sapporo's grid-patterned streets, which make navigation so straightforward, were originally planned by American engineers in the late 19th century. The closest major landmark is the historic and scenic Moerenuma Park, a massive art park and playground designed by world-renowned artist and architect Isamu Noguchi.
