This unique property, named 'Bike Garage Jooka', offers a rare combination of residential space and substantial vehicle storage. Located in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture, the 87.6㎡ (approximately 26.49 tsubo) apartment features a 2R layout and is housed within a two-story wooden building constructed in October 1967 (58 years old). The monthly rent is 66,000 yen, with a security deposit (敷金) of 60,000 yen and key money (礼金) equivalent to one month's rent (66,000 yen). A monthly neighborhood association fee of 600 yen and an annual snow-melting association fee of 3,000 yen apply.
Critical agent notes have been translated and provide essential details. The equipment and facilities include: proximity to the nearest station, parking for three or more cars, south-facing orientation, three-sided natural lighting, separate bath and toilet, closets, immediate move-in readiness, and a requirement to join a guarantee company. Special remarks clarify: the property is offered 'as-is', joining a guarantee company is mandatory, and a portion of the land on the right side when viewed from the road is a waterway and is not included in the leasehold range.
A standout feature is the generous parking provision. The building's front can accommodate approximately three cars, and the garage is specifically noted as being capable of storing two or more motorcycles, offering peace of mind during snowy conditions. The apartment itself is ready for immediate occupancy, allowing for a swift transition. The area of Nagaoka is rich in history and culture, famously known for its spectacular annual fireworks festival, one of Japan's most renowned. For a major tourist attraction, the historic Takada Castle Site and its surrounding park in nearby Joetsu City offer beautiful cherry blossoms and a reconstructed castle keep, providing a glimpse into the region's samurai past.
