Livio City Bunkyo Koishikawa: A Large-Scale Residential Complex in Tokyo's Academic Heart
Livio City Bunkyo Koishikawa is a large-scale, pre-construction condominium development located in the prestigious Bunkyo Ward of Tokyo. This project, consisting of five buildings with a total of 522 units, is positioned as the largest residential complex within the Yamanote Line loop in Bunkyo Ward, meeting the criteria of over 500 units and a site area exceeding 10,000 square meters. The property is designed with "cultural," "diverse," and "advanced" concepts, aiming to integrate with the neighborhood while leading the future of Koishikawa.
The development offers a wide range of floor plans from 1LDK to 4LDK, with private unit sizes ranging from 36.00㎡ to 85.81㎡. Balcony areas vary from 6.18㎡ to 19.88㎡, with some units featuring roof terraces (33.55㎡) or service balconies. The construction is reinforced concrete, with Building A being 10 stories and Buildings B through E being 7 stories tall. A key feature is the planned inclusion of an urban supermarket exceeding 1,700㎡ on the first floor for convenient daily shopping.
Residents will have access to eight extensive shared facilities: an entrance hall, multi-lounge, library lounge, guest room, fitness lounge, work & study room, a central courtyard, and a rooftop terrace. The rooftop terrace is designed as a private garden with lawn space, wood decking, and table sets. The fitness lounge is equipped with running machines, bikes, and bench presses. The work & study room includes private booths for remote meetings, and the multi-lounge serves as a community space for events.
The location in Koishawa is rich in academic history and nature. It is within a 2-minute walk to Koishikawa Botanical Garden, Japan's oldest botanical garden with a 340-year history.
