This charming second-hand apartment, located in the Chambre Yoyogi Uehara building in Shibuya's Uehara 2-chome, offers a comfortable 2DK layout with a total floor area of 39.98 square meters. Built in June 1976, this reinforced concrete (RC) structure is a four-story building with a total of 30 units. The property is conveniently situated within a 6-minute walk from three key stations: the Odakyu Odawara Line's Yoyogi-Uehara and Yoyogi-Hachiman stations, as well as the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line's Yoyogi-Koen station, providing excellent access to multiple train lines.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective buyers or investors. The remarks clarify that the "cooperative contribution fee" of 2,000 yen applies only if the unit is put up for rent and the owner does not take a position on the building's management board. Furthermore, the notes highlight that the north and east sections of the unit feature areas designed for natural light, enhancing the living environment.
Monthly fees include a management fee of 8,400 yen and a repair reserve fund of 10,100 yen. The building is fully委托管理 (entrusted management) with a巡回管理員 (roaming caretaker). The current status is所有者居住中 (owner-occupied), and the planned handover date is late March 2026. The property is located in a近隣商業地域 (neighborhood commercial zone) and comes with full ownership rights. Please note there is no parking available with this unit.
The surrounding area of Yoyogi-Uehara and Yoyogi-Koen is known for its relaxed, residential atmosphere juxtaposed with trendy cafes and boutiques, offering a pleasant escape from the busier parts of Shibuya. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Yoyogi Park, one of Tokyo's largest and most famous parks, was originally the site of the athletes' village for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. The closest major landmark is the iconic Meiji Jingu Shrine, a vast, serene Shinto shrine dedicated to the deified spirits of Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken, located just a short distance from Yoyogi Park.
