Special notes from the agent provide important flexibility: pets and musical instruments are negotiable, the property can be used as an office, and it is classified as a resort property. The owner's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the curated equipment, and the pleasant view from the rooftop terrace is a notable highlight. For interested parties, it is a welcome feature that pet ownership is negotiable, office use is permitted, and short-term rental (minpaku) arrangements are also possible. The renewal fee is equivalent to one month of the new rent. Other key financial terms include a security deposit of two months' rent and a key money (reikin) payment of one month's rent.
The area is one of Tokyo's most vibrant, known for its high-end fashion boutiques, cafes, and art galleries along Omotesando. An interesting fact is that the nearby Meiji Jingu Shrine, a major Shinto shrine dedicated to Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken, is surrounded by a 170-acre forest containing over 120,000 trees donated from all across Japan when it was established. The closest major landmark is the iconic Meiji Jingu Shrine itself, a vast and serene oasis in the heart of the city.
