Key agent notes and features have been translated for clarity. The property is pet-friendly, subject to consultation and potential conditions such as an increased monthly rent of 3,000 yen and an additional one-month key money. Two-person occupancy, room-sharing, office use, and corporate housing contracts are also open for discussion. The house comes equipped with a separate bath and toilet, a washbasin area, closets, city gas, and public water and sewage systems. Please note that floor plans are subject to the actual condition of the property.
Additional costs include a mandatory "Act Anshin Life 24" insurance at 11,000 yen annually, a required rental guarantee from Casa Corporation (50% of the total rent upon entry, 10,000 yen annually for renewal), and key exchange and interior cleaning fees ranging from 22,000 yen and 77,000 yen respectively, payable upon moving out. The initial contract period is two years with no renewal fee, though a 15,000 yen renewal administrative fee applies.
The property is located in the Hirakata area, a city known for its blend of urban convenience and natural beauty, situated along the Yodo River. An interesting local fact is that Hirakata Park, one of Japan's oldest amusement parks, opened in 1910 and is a beloved historical attraction. The closest major tourist landmark is the iconic Hirakata T-SITE, a sophisticated cultural complex with a renowned bookstore, but the area is also within reasonable distance of the historic beauty of Kyoto.
