Spacious Modern Wooden House in Tokyo's Historic Ueno Area
This charming three-story wooden house, built in July 2005, offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial property in the heart of Tokyo's Taito Ward. The residence features a 2SLDK layout, providing two bedrooms, a living room, dining room, and kitchen across a generous total floor area of 84.28 square meters (approximately 25.49 tsubo). The property sits on a land area of 52.82 square meters (about 15.97 tsubo), with a small portion of 2.18 square meters designated as private road area.
Critical agent notes provide essential details about the property's access and legal status. The road access situation is detailed as follows: it is a one-sided road facing southeast, with a width of 3.6 meters. The road is a private road with a frontage of 5.4 meters, and it is not positionally designated. A further remark clarifies that the front road is privately owned but is treated as a ward road, with maintenance and management carried out by Taito Ward.
The property is located in the Ikenohata 4-chome district, a peaceful and culturally rich neighborhood. It boasts excellent accessibility, being just a 5-minute walk from the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line's "Nezu" Station, a 14-minute walk from the JR Yamanote Line's "Ueno" Station, and an 11-minute walk from the Keisei Main Line's "Keisei Ueno" Station. The area is part of the First Category Residential Zone within the urbanization promotion area, with a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 300%. The land is classified as residential and has a slight slope.
The Ikenohata area is steeped in history and culture, nestled between the bustling Ueno district and the serene Shinobazu Pond. An interesting local fact is that the neighborhood's name, "Ikenohata" (池之端), translates to "edge of the pond," referencing its proximity to the famous Shinobazu Pond in Ueno Park. The closest major landmark is the expansive Ueno Park, a premier tourist attraction renowned for its museums, Ueno Zoo, and beautiful cherry blossoms in spring.
