This modern apartment in Urasoe City, Okinawa, offers a comfortable and convenient lifestyle in a spacious one-room layout. The property features a generous 38.6㎡ (approximately 20 tatami mats) of open living space, providing a sense of freedom. As a corner unit, it benefits from reduced noise and excellent cross-ventilation, enhanced by a two-sided balcony that fills the room with natural light.
The apartment is well-equipped for modern living. Key facilities include propane gas, separate bath and toilet, air conditioning, a shoe cupboard, and a dedicated indoor space for a washing machine. For connectivity, the unit is internet-ready with free internet service included. Security is a priority, with an auto-lock building entrance and a monitor-equipped intercom system for added peace of mind.
Special notes from the agent highlight the advantages of this Y・O House unit. The auto-lock and TV intercom provide a secure living environment. The corner room ensures a comfortable life without concerns about noise. Financially, it is an attractive option with no security deposit (敷金) or key money (礼金), helping to keep initial costs low. The inclusion of air conditioning and separate bath and toilet further supports a comfortable lifestyle. The managing agent, Maruyu Housing, notes that viewings and contracts can be handled entirely online, making the process accessible even for those living on remote islands or outside Okinawa Prefecture. Important inquiries: viewings may not always be possible depending on application status or the condition of the unit before/after a tenant moves out. Responses to inquiries are handled in order, so there may be a delay. No viewing or contract is confirmed until an agent makes direct contact.
The location in Urasoe's Tsubogawa 1-chome is highly convenient. A supermarket is just a 2-minute drive away, and the Tsubogawa Shogakko Iriguchi bus stop is only a minute's walk, providing easy access to public transport. The area is part of the vibrant central region of Okinawa Island. An interesting local fact is that Urasoe City was once the seat of the Ryukyu Kingdom's government before it moved to Shuri. The closest major tourist attraction is the iconic Shuri Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site and former royal palace of the Ryukyu Kingdom, located a short drive away in neighboring Naha City.
