Top-Floor Corner Apartment with Unobstructed Views of the Kumagaya Fireworks
This property is a top-floor corner unit on the 11th floor of a reinforced concrete apartment building located in Kumagaya City, Saitama Prefecture. Purchased in January 2026, the owner had planned to renovate the interior and offer it for rent but has decided to sell due to being occupied with another property renovation. The unit offers a panoramic view of the Kumagaya cityscape, and from the living room, one can enjoy an unobstructed view of the Kumagaya Fireworks Festival. Pets are allowed, which is an attractive feature. The apartment directly below has a recent rental record of 65,000 yen per month, and the owner believes this corner unit with its excellent views could potentially achieve 75,000 yen per month. A 10th-floor unit (49 sqm, needing repairs) in the same building is currently listed for 5.55 million yen.
The property requires some repairs, including wallpaper, fusuma sliding doors, tatami mat replacement, and kitchen work. The water heater has been replaced with a new model featuring a bath-filling function. Two air conditioning units are included and have been confirmed to be in working order; separate electrical wiring has been installed for these units. The distribution panel (breaker) has been replaced with a new one, the kitchen ventilation fan is new, and lighting has been installed in all rooms. Electrical outlet work has also been completed. The estimated cost for DIY repairs is around 100,000 yen, while hiring contractors would be approximately 500,000 yen. The building is well-constructed and expected to remain sound for another 20-30 years.
The monthly management fee is 5,925 yen, and the repair reserve fund is 7,466 yen. The location is convenient, with a bus stop just 100 meters away offering frequent service to Kumagaya Station (about 7 minutes by bus). Daily shopping needs are easily met within walking distance. Nearby amenities include Aeon Mall and Aeon Cinema (250m), a post office (100m), Jikei Hospital (100m), a convenience store (FamilyMart, 100m), a sushi restaurant (Gatten Sushi, 150m), and Nitori (200m). Ishiwara Station is 1,400m away, and Kami-Kumagaya Station is also 1,400m away. The building is 11 stories high and constructed of reinforced concrete.
