Modern RC Apartment with Panoramic Views in Naha's Historic Shuri District
This contemporary apartment, built in February 2020, offers a rare combination of modern comfort and a prime location in the historic Shuri district of Naha City, Okinawa. Priced at 60.3 million yen, this 3-story reinforced concrete (RC) building features a spacious 82.38 m² (approx. 24.92 tsubo) unit on the second floor. The layout is a functional 2LDK, comprising two Western-style rooms (7.1 and 6.7 mats), a living-dining-kitchen area, and a convenient walk-through closet. The property is pet-friendly, adding to its appeal for a wide range of buyers.
Agent notes highlight several key features and conditions. The unit is equipped with separate bath and toilet facilities, air conditioning, and the building benefits from an auto-lock security system and an elevator. The property is an owner-change unit, indicating it is a resale. The balcony offers a spectacular panoramic view overlooking Naha city and extending all the way to the Kerama Islands. The location is highly accessible, approximately a 15-minute walk from the Shuri Monorail Station and just a 1-minute walk from the Ishidatami Iriguchi bus stop.
The area surrounding the property is steeped in history as the former capital of the Ryukyu Kingdom. An interesting fact is that the nearby Shuri Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site, was the political and cultural heart of the kingdom for centuries before Okinawa's integration into Japan. While the castle itself is a major tourist attraction, the surrounding Shuri area retains a unique cultural atmosphere distinct from the modern downtown Naha. The property's location offers a peaceful residential setting while remaining well-connected to the city's amenities and historic landmarks.
