Laulea 2-B: A Modern Apartment in Okinawa's Kin Town
This modern apartment, unit 2-B in the Laulea building, offers a comfortable and well-equipped living space in the peaceful Kin Town area of Okinawa. The property features a 2LDK layout with all Western-style rooms, including a spacious living-dining-kitchen area measuring 11.2 square meters. The kitchen is a wall-mounted, counter-style unit finished with artificial marble. The apartment is equipped with two air conditioning units, both of which come with a repair guarantee.
Key facilities and equipment include an indoor washing machine space, a gas clothes dryer, a security camera, and a delivery box for parcels. The property also comes with Wi-Fi included at no extra cost. For parking, two tandem parking spaces for standard-sized cars are available free of charge.
Important notes regarding fees include a free Wi-Fi internet connection. Fire insurance is billed every two years at 15,000 yen. Initial move-in costs include a key replacement fee of 11,000 yen (tax included), an antibacterial deodorizing treatment for 16,500 yen (tax included), and an account registration fee of 275 yen (tax included), bringing the total estimated initial cost to 283,475 yen. The lease is a fixed-term rental agreement for two years, requiring renewal every two years with a renewal administrative fee of 16,500 yen. Terminating the contract before the two-year period incurs a penalty of one month's rent. The apartment is located within a 7-minute walk of Kin Elementary School, a 10-minute walk of Kin Junior High School, and a 2-minute walk of Nami Sato Nursery School. The Kin Interchange is approximately an 11-minute drive away, providing convenient access to other facilities.
The area of Kin Town offers a relaxed lifestyle away from the busier urban centers of Okinawa. An interesting local fact is that Kin is home to the Kin Blue Cave, a popular snorkeling and diving spot known for its stunningly clear, blue-hued water and marine life. The closest major landmark is the historic Nakagusuku Castle ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage site located a short drive away, offering panoramic views and a deep dive into Ryukyuan history.
