Occupying the entire top floor of a seven-story building, this 2LDK unit boasts an expansive private area of 89.26 square meters (approximately 27 tsubo), providing generous space and exceptional panoramic views.
The property features a separate bathroom and toilet, a face-to-face kitchen layout, and the security of an auto-lock building entrance. The apartment is noted for its excellent sunlight and superb views, including ocean vistas. A significant advantage for pet owners is that the property is pet-friendly, allowing small dogs and cats, with a maximum of two pets in total. A critical note from the agent specifies: "If pets are kept, the security deposit will be 3 months' rent." One indoor parking space is provided free of charge, and the property is also available for corporate housing.
The building itself, constructed in May 2008 (17 years old), is a reinforced concrete (RC) structure, ensuring durability and stability. The monthly rent is 200,000 yen with no monthly common area fees (共益費). The initial costs include a security deposit of 1 month's rent (increasing to 3 months if pets are kept), no key money (礼金), no guarantee deposit, and a brokerage fee equivalent to 1 month's rent.
The Shikina neighborhood in Naha is a pleasant residential area known for its tranquility while remaining well-connected. An interesting local fact is that the area is home to the historic Shikinaen Garden, a former royal villa of the Ryukyu Kingdom and a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. This beautifully landscaped garden, with its traditional Ryukyuan architecture and serene ponds, is a major tourist attraction and offers a peaceful escape just a short distance from the bustling city center.
