Domes Serena Mukogaoka Yuen II Apartment in Kawasaki
This apartment is located in the Masugata area of Kawasaki's Tama Ward, a residential neighborhood known for its greenery and historical sites. The building's warm-toned exterior design adds a sense of warmth and presence to the streetscape.
The property is a top-floor, southwest corner unit with a south-facing balcony. The interior is in very clean condition, having been used with great care, which helps keep renovation costs low. The floor plan is a flexible 2LDK layout with a total private area of 47.58 sqm. The building uses a reinforced concrete (RC) structure, with columns and beams placed as much as possible on the outer periphery. This design minimizes protrusions in the rooms, creating a more usable, square floor plan that allows for efficient placement of furniture and built-in storage, resulting in a clean-looking interior. The lack of structural elements within the rooms also makes future partition changes easier, offering a highly adaptable plan.
The living-dining-kitchen area is approximately 11.1 tatami mats in size. As a top-floor south-facing unit, it takes full advantage of natural light, creating a warm and bright space. It features a counter kitchen, allowing for conversation while cooking. A window next to the kitchen provides ventilation to prevent cooking odors from spreading throughout the apartment. The short distance between the kitchen and dining area makes serving and cleaning up smooth. The partition between the living area and one of the Western-style rooms (approx. 5.4 tatami mats) is a wall door, offering flexibility. These spaces can be connected to create a larger 1LDK layout with an expansive living area.
The south-facing balcony, accessible from both the living room and the 5.4-tatami mat room, has no obstructions to the front, receiving excellent sunlight. This makes drying laundry and bedding easy. In winter, sunlight reaches deep into the room, helping to raise the temperature and improve heating efficiency, which can lead to lower utility costs.
The bathroom features a 1317-size bathtub with a re-heating function and a bathroom ventilation dryer, allowing laundry to be dried regardless of the weather. The re-heating function means family members can enjoy a warm bath at different times, convenient for varying work schedules.
The first Western-style room (approx. 5.4 tatami mats) is a rectangular shape with few protrusions, making furniture arrangement easy. It has ample storage, allowing for a spacious living area. The second Western-style room (approx. 4.1 tatami mats) includes a storage closet. It has windows on the north and west sides, providing good ventilation, making it suitable for use as a home office or study.
Equipment/Facilities: The property is connected to city gas.
