Special rental terms are a highlight of this listing. The agent notes specify that two people are allowed to occupy the unit (二人入居可) and that a period of free rent is offered (フリーレント). However, a special note (備考1) states that a cancellation fee will be incurred if the contract is terminated within one year (1年以内に解約の場合違約金がかかります).

The surrounding area of Taura in Yokosuka is a historic port district with a deep connection to the Japanese navy. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Taura Station is one of the few stations in Japan where you can see both the sea and mountains from the platform. The closest major tourist attraction is the Mikasa Park, home to the preserved battleship Mikasa, a former flagship of the Imperial Japanese Navy and now a fascinating museum ship.
