Spacious 2DK Apartment in Asakusa with Prime Location and River View
This well-maintained apartment in Tokyo's historic Asakusa district offers a comfortable 2DK layout with a total floor area of 55.97 sqm (approx. 16.93 tsubo). Located on the 3rd floor of a 10-story building with one basement level, the property was built in October 1990 and features an east-facing balcony overlooking the street. The building is constructed with a sturdy SRC (steel reinforced concrete) structure and houses a total of 19 units, with only two residences per floor, ensuring a quiet living environment.
Key equipment and features include a dedicated toilet with a warm-water washlet, separate bath and toilet, washstand, IH cooking heater, closets, two or more air conditioning units, an indoor washing machine space, flooring throughout all rooms, an auto-lock security system, a dimple key, security cameras, city gas, water and sewage systems, hot water supply, and an elevator. The property is on flat land with good ventilation and features an exterior tile finish. It is designated as an IT-heavy explanation対応 property, supports electronic contracts, and is conveniently located near the starting station of the Ginza Line. Two railway lines are easily accessible from here.
Special notes indicate that while the current layout is a 2DK, it can be remodeled into a preferred floor plan upon consultation. The room is a clean rectangle, allowing for design flexibility. It is recommended both as a second home or for primary residence. The building is small-scale but well-managed. As it involves an old-law leasehold right, separate succession of the land lease contract is required (this is a renewable leasehold). A relative of the current owner currently resides in the unit, so an internal viewing must be arranged by coordinating candidate dates after receiving a request.
The surrounding area boasts excellent living amenities including Super Ozeki supermarket, a butcher, a greengrocer, and convenience stores like Family Mart, all within a 1-2 minute walk. The apartment entrance is diagonally opposite a Starbucks. The location is exceptionally convenient for transport, being just a 4-minute walk from Tokyo Metro Ginza Line's Asakusa Station, a 5-minute walk from the Toei Asakusa Line's Asakusa Station, and a 9-minute walk from the Toei Oedo Line's Kuramae Station. The area is steeped in history and culture. An interesting local fact is that residents of this building can enjoy the Sumida River Fireworks Festival from the rooftop during the summer. The closest major landmark is the iconic Senso-ji Temple, one of Tokyo's oldest and most significant Buddhist temples, located just a short walk away in the heart of Asakusa.
