The property is being sold with an existing tenant, presenting an investment opportunity with an estimated annual rental yield of 5.90% and projected annual rental income of 756,000 yen. Monthly running costs include a 2,000 yen fee for the central heating, cooling, and hot water system, which is billed to the tenant during the lease period.
The apartment is situated in the Iriya 1-chome district, a short 2-minute walk from Iriya Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line, providing excellent connectivity. The area is part of the historic Shitamachi (downtown) region of Tokyo, known for its traditional atmosphere and summer festivals. A major nearby landmark is the iconic Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa, one of Tokyo's oldest and most significant Buddhist temples, easily accessible and a major draw for both tourists and locals.
