Modern 1DK Apartment in Toshima, Tokyo with Investment Potential
This well-maintained apartment, built in May 2006, offers a comfortable and convenient lifestyle in the heart of Tokyo's Toshima Ward. The property features a 1DK layout with a wall-core exclusive area of 31.28 sqm (approximately 9.46 tsubo), including a 5.10 sqm balcony facing southwest for ample natural light. The building is a 10-story reinforced steel-concrete (SRC) structure, with this unit located on the 3rd floor, and is equipped with essential security and convenience features including an auto-lock entry system, elevator, and delivery box.
The apartment comes with a comprehensive set of equipment: a toilet with warm-water bidet seat, separate bath and toilet, bathroom dryer, washroom, system kitchen with a 3-burner stove, closet, shoe-in closet, and space for an indoor washing machine. Building amenities include a bicycle parking area (monthly fee of 100 yen) and a paid parking space available for 31,000 yen per month. The property is currently tenanted, generating a projected annual rental income of 1,380,000 yen, which offers an attractive projected yield of 3.85%. The monthly management fee is 6,600 yen with an 8,000 yen repair reserve fund. Pets are negotiable with consultation.
The building is professionally managed by Mitsubishi Estate Community Co., Ltd. under a full委托, daytime management system. The transaction is handled as an exclusive intermediary. Important notes specify that inquiries must be directed to the information-providing real estate company listed on the property details page, and that the floor plan prioritizes the current condition.
The location is highly accessible, just an 8-minute walk from the JR Yamanote Line's Otsuka Station and an 18-minute walk from the Saikyo Line's Ikebukuro Station, one of Tokyo's major commercial and entertainment hubs. The area around Otsuka offers a quieter residential atmosphere while being minutes away from the vast shopping, dining, and nightlife options of Ikebukuro. An interesting local fact is that the nearby Sugamo area, often called "Harajuku for Grandmas," is famous for its traditional shops and the Kogan-ji Temple, which is believed to grant longevity.
