This listing presents Calm Takaezu 301, a modern apartment located in the Takaezu area of Uruma City, Okinawa Prefecture. The property is a 1K layout with a total private area of 24.6 square meters (approximately 7.44 tsubo), situated on the 3rd floor of a 4-story reinforced concrete (RC) building constructed in October 2022, making it a relatively new build.

Notably, there is no security deposit (敷金), key money (礼金), or guarantee deposit (保証金) required. However, the agent notes several important fees and conditions. The brokerage fee is equivalent to one month's rent (plus parking fee) plus consumption tax. For pet owners, this is a pet-friendly property; keeping one dog or cat is permitted with an additional monthly rent of 2,000 yen and a separate guarantee deposit of one month's rent per pet.
Key building amenities include an elevator, a parcel delivery box, and an auto-lock security system for enhanced safety. The unit itself is equipped with air conditioning, heating, a gas clothes dryer, a separate bath and toilet, a unit bath with a tub, a shampoo dresser, an independent washbasin, and a designated indoor space for a washing machine. Internet service is provided free of charge. Parking is available for one compact or small car at an additional cost of 3,000 yen per month.
The property is under a fixed-term rental contract (定期借家契約) of 2 years. A renewal fee of 16,500 yen (including tax) is applicable upon re-contracting. Other mandatory or potential fees include a rent guarantee fee starting from 45,680 yen (varies by guarantee company), a storage agency fee of 330 yen per month (tax included), a mandatory 'Life Support' fee of 1,100 yen per month (prorated for move-in and move-out months), and an annual renewal fee of 10,000 yen (tax included). If a vehicle registration certificate is required, a fee of 3,300 yen (tax included) is charged for issuing a storage location consent form. Early termination penalties apply: canceling within the first year incurs a penalty of two months' rent, while canceling after one year but before two years incurs a penalty of one month's rent.
The location offers convenient access, with the Shibaragawa bus stop approximately a 4-minute walk away. The agent describes the unit as having good views and being in a quiet location.
