Renovated Apartment in Nagaoka with Pet-Friendly Policy
This renovated apartment, Iris Fort Minami 301, offers a comfortable and modern living space in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture. The property is a 36 sqm (approximately 10.89 tsubo) 1LDK unit located on the 3rd floor of a 4-story reinforced concrete building constructed in May 1980. The layout includes a combined living, dining, and kitchen area of 9.3 tatami mats and a separate 6-tatami mat Western-style room.
The agent's notes detail comprehensive facilities and special conditions. The equipment includes good sunlight exposure, a corner residence, a 2-burner gas stove already installed, separate bath and toilet, a washlet toilet with heated seat, air conditioning, city gas, a balcony, flooring in all rooms, an indoor space for a washing machine, closets, BS terminal/antenna, lighting in each room, and renovated interior. A guarantee company is available for use, and pets are negotiable, though joining a guarantee company is required.
Special remarks clarify the initial costs: the first guarantee fee is 50% of the total rent, and there is an annual renewal fee of 10,000 yen. If keeping a pet (one small dog or cat), a security deposit of two months' rent is required. The monthly rent is 40,000 yen with an 8,000 yen monthly management fee. There is no key money (reikin) and no security deposit (shikikin) under standard conditions, though the pet clause modifies this.
The area of Nagaoka is rich in history and culture, famously known for its spectacular annual fireworks festival, one of Japan's largest and most prestigious. For a major landmark, residents are within reasonable access to the historic Takada Castle Park in neighboring Joetsu City, renowned for its beautiful cherry blossoms and samurai heritage.
