The building features a 1K layout and is situated on a south-facing road with a generous width of approximately 6 meters, which is a public road. The property is designated within a Commercial Zone under the Urban Planning Act, located in a City Planning Area. The building-to-land ratio is 80%, with a floor area ratio of 400%, though it is restricted to 360% due to the front road width.

The surrounding Fukushima area is a dynamic and well-connected part of Osaka, known for its mix of business and residential communities. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Fukushima Station area was historically a major hub for sake brewing and distribution. The property is exceptionally convenient, being just a 3-minute walk from JR Loop Line Fukushima Station, a 5-minute walk from JR Tozai Line's Shin-Fukushima Station, and a 6-minute walk from Hankyu Main Line Fukushima Station. The closest major landmark is the iconic Umeda Sky Building, a spectacular twin-tower skyscraper with a floating garden observatory offering panoramic views of Osaka, located just a few stops away on the train.
