Compact and Convenient Apartment in Tachikawa, Tokyo

The apartment comes equipped with essential modern amenities for comfortable urban living. Key facilities include city gas, air conditioning, hot water supply, a separate bath and toilet, a toilet with a warm-water washlet bidet function, a shower, an indoor space for a washing machine, and lighting fixtures included.

Important financial details include a monthly rent of 42,000 yen. The initial costs consist of a security deposit (敷金) equivalent to one month's rent and a key money (礼金) payment also equal to one month's rent. There are no recurring monthly management or common service fees. A special note regarding the lease renewal states: "Renewal Fee: One month of the new rent." The lease contract is for a standard two-year term, and the property is currently vacant and ready for immediate occupancy.
The surrounding Tachikawa area is a vibrant commercial and cultural hub in western Tokyo. An interesting local fact is that Tachikawa is home to the Showa Kinen Park, a massive national park created on the former site of a United States air base, now featuring expansive gardens, cycling paths, and seasonal flower festivals. The closest major landmark is the Tachikawa Station area itself, a major transportation and shopping center, but for a renowned tourist attraction, the majestic Mount Takao, a popular hiking destination with ancient temples, is easily accessible via train from Tachikawa Station.
