Ohana Soga Gardinia: A Modern Apartment in Chiba
This property is a 3LDK plus S, WIC, and MC apartment located on the 6th floor of a 7-story building in Minami-cho, Chuo Ward, Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture. The apartment is part of the Ohana Soga Gardinia complex, a former Nomura Real Estate development completed in January 2025. The unit has a southwest-facing balcony, providing good sunlight and ventilation. The layout is designed so the interior is not visible from the entrance, offering privacy for unexpected guests. It features ample storage including a walk-in closet and multi-closet to keep the home tidy.
The living-dining area is approximately 12.5 tatami mats in size and is equipped with TES hot water floor heating. This system circulates warm water under the floor for clean, comfortable heating without stirring up house dust. The kitchen, about 3.3 tatami mats, includes a water purifier-integrated hand shower faucet with a pull-out hose, convenient for cleaning the sink and large pots. It also has a silent wide sink large enough to wash a frying pan or large wok, and comes with a dishwasher that saves water and cleans grease with high-temperature washing to reduce household chores.
The bathroom is equipped with a ventilation dryer, useful for drying laundry on rainy days and preventing condensation and mold. It features a Thermo Bath S, known for its excellent heat retention. The washbasin area has a three-way mirror and storage behind the vanity, plus a linen closet for towels and detergents.
Security features include sensor alarms on window and door locks and motion sensor lighting. The balcony handrail is designed to allow for the installation of flood protection panels in case of major water damage. The building complex itself is situated on a well-shaped, corner lot with roads on four sides (south, east, west, and part of the north). It covers a development area of approximately 9,900 square meters, featuring all flat, self-parking spaces and gardens, including EV charging and car wash areas. The south-facing building frontage exceeds 140 meters, creating a bright and open layout. Shared facilities include a multi-purpose lounge with a kitchen, toilet, raised seating, counter desk, mirror, kids' mat, tables and chairs, and a terrace. Other amenities are a co-op space, parcel lockers, free Wi-Fi in some common areas, a 24-hour garbage station, a disaster prevention warehouse, security cameras, and pet-friendly policies (with rules) including a pet foot-washing area.
