Spacious Corner Apartment with Dual Sunlight in Vibrate Ikebukuro
This well-maintained apartment offers a comfortable living space in the heart of Tokyo's bustling Ikebukuro district. The property is a 24.33 square meter (approximately 7.35 tsubo) 1K layout situated on the 6th floor of an 8-story reinforced concrete building constructed in January 1992. A key feature is its corner unit position, which allows for dual-aspect, two-sided sunlight, brightening the interior. The apartment comes with essential equipment including storage space, air conditioning, internet connectivity, an indoor washing machine space, flooring throughout all rooms, an auto-lock security system, a monitor-equipped intercom, hot water supply, and elevator access.
The building is professionally managed by Sanyo Tate Mono Kabushiki Gaisha with a full-consignment, daytime management system. Monthly fees include a 9,200 yen management fee and a 3,800 yen repair reserve fund. The property is currently vacant, and the handover timing is negotiable. It is suitable for both owner-occupation and investment purposes, and the listing agent notes that Chinese language support via WeChat is available.
The location is exceptionally convenient, with JR Yamanote Line's Otsuka Station just a 7-minute walk away, the Tokyo Sakura Tram (Toden Arakawa Line)'s Mukohara Station a 3-minute walk, and Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line's Higashi-Ikebukuro Station within a 10-minute walk. This provides seamless access to major hubs like Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, and Shibuya. The area is a dynamic mix of commercial and residential zones, known for its massive Sunshine City complex, which houses an aquarium, planetarium, and observation deck. An interesting local fact is that Ikebukuro is home to one of the world's busiest pedestrian crossings outside of the station's west exit. The closest major landmark is the iconic Sunshine 60 building, a former tallest-in-Asia skyscraper that remains a defining feature of the Ikebukuro skyline.
