Compact and Convenient Apartment in Central Morioka
This compact 1K apartment offers an affordable entry point into homeownership in the lively heart of Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture. Located in the commercial district of Sakanamachi, the property is part of the "Hoyu Comfort Morioka" building, a 5-story reinforced concrete (RC) structure built in July 1991. The apartment itself is situated on the 4th floor of the building, providing a quiet retreat with a southeast-facing orientation for good natural light.
The unit features a total private floor area of 16.58 square meters (approximately 5.01 tsubo), efficiently arranged into a combined kitchen and living space alongside a separate bathroom. Key building amenities include an auto-lock security system for peace of mind, an elevator for easy access, and utilities powered by city gas. The monthly running costs consist of a 9,020 yen management fee and a 12,740 yen repair reserve fund. Please note that a parking space is not available with this unit.
The location is exceptionally convenient for daily life. A Seven-Eleven convenience store is just 136 meters away, and several shopping facilities, including monaka and Maruichi Nakanobashi-dori Store, are within a short walking distance. The property is also close to the Morioka Hotline Sakanamachi Post Office (181m) and the Morioka City Hall (851m). For transportation, the Minami-Odori 1-chome bus stop is a mere 2-minute walk away, providing excellent connectivity. The property is currently vacant, and the handover timing is negotiable. The transaction is handled as a general intermediary service.
The surrounding area of central Morioka is rich with history and culture. An interesting local fact is that Morioka is famous for its unique "Wanko Soba" noodle-eating challenge, where servers continuously refill small bowls of soba until the diner signals they are full. The city is also home to the impressive Morioka Castle Ruins Park (Iwate Park), a scenic historic site built on the foundations of a 17th-century castle, located just a short distance from the bustling city center.
