This unique property, located in the quiet residential neighborhood of Aobadai in Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture, offers a rare combination of urban convenience and personal retreat.

According to the agent's notes, the property was built in February 2000 and offers access to two railway lines.

Please note that a separate monthly usage fee applies for the onsen. The apartment also comes with a dedicated private garden. Pet ownership is permitted, subject to specific rules and regulations.

The total private area is 75.82 sqm with an additional 10.25 sqm balcony. The building is equipped with an auto-lock security system, elevator, parking (available for 8,000 yen per month), bicycle parking, and a parcel delivery box.
