Internet connection is available via a building-wide contract with optional separate fees. Parking is currently full. The tatami mat sizes listed are approximate. The property is being sold as-is, where-is, with the seller exempt from liability for non-conforming conditions.
The apartment is situated in the Imado 2-chome area of Taito Ward, Tokyo, a historic neighborhood within walking distance of the famous Senso-ji Temple. The area is known for its traditional atmosphere, with shops selling classic Japanese crafts and snacks. An interesting local fact is that Imado is famous for its production of 'Imado-yaki' pottery and is also considered the birthplace of the 'Maneki-neko' or beckoning cat figurine, a common symbol of good luck in shops across Japan. The closest major landmark is the iconic Senso-ji Temple, Tokyo's oldest temple, approximately a 15-minute walk away.
