Built in May 1967, the structure offers a 2DK layout with a total floor area of 37.30 sqm (approximately 11.28 tsubo), situated on a land plot of 31.04 sqm (approximately 9.38 tsubo). The property is currently vacant.
Critical agent notes have been provided, which contain essential information for potential buyers. The property is designated as "non-rebuildable." The land topography is flat. Additionally, there is a separate private road burden of 2/26 shares of a 25.62 sqm area. Crucially, the lot does not meet the Road Access Obligation under the Building Standards Act, which is the reason rebuilding is not permitted.
The property is in a First Category Medium-to-High-Rise Residential Exclusive Zone within an urban planning area. It has a building-to-land ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 300%. There is no parking included with the property. The sale is being handled under a general intermediary transaction.
The Shinjuku area is one of Tokyo's most dynamic wards, famous for its juxtaposition of towering skyscrapers, government offices, and bustling entertainment districts. An interesting fact is that Shinjuku Station is the world's busiest railway station, used by an average of over 3.5 million people daily. The closest major landmark to this property is the iconic Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building in Shinjuku's skyscraper district, known for its twin towers and free observation decks offering panoramic views of the city and, on clear days, Mount Fuji.
