Prestige Shuri Kinjo-cho: A Modern Residence in Historic Naha
This property is a distinguished second-hand apartment located in the Prestige Shuri Kinjo-cho complex in Naha City, Okinawa. The building's exterior is reminiscent of a luxury hotel, incorporating traditional Ryukyu limestone and red roof tiles. Its architecture is impressive, constructed in a stepped formation along the mountain range. The beautiful entrance adds to the sophisticated appeal.
According to the agent's notes, the property features a reinforced concrete (RC) structure. It is equipped with an elevator for convenience. The apartment is south-facing, ensuring excellent natural light, and is available for immediate occupancy. The layout is a 2LDK with a private area of approximately 78.35 square meters (about 23.7 tsubo). The balcony offers an additional 13.7 square meters (about 4.1 tsubo) of outdoor space. Monthly fees include a management fee of 31,800 yen and a repair reserve fund of 11,900 yen. One parking space is available on the premises for a monthly fee of 7,000 yen.
The apartment is situated on the 3rd floor of a 9-story building constructed in 2023, making it a relatively new property. The transaction is handled on an exclusive agency basis. The location in Shuri Kinjo-cho 3-chome is highly accessible, with Gibo Station approximately a 17-minute walk away.
The Shuri area is rich in history and culture, being the former capital of the Ryukyu Kingdom. A fascinating fact is that the unique architectural style of the region, which this building references with its limestone and tiles, was developed to withstand typhoons and the subtropical climate. The closest major landmark is the UNESCO World Heritage site, Shuri Castle, a magnificent reconstruction of the royal palace that offers panoramic views of Naha and deep insights into Okinawa's distinct heritage.
