Spacious 4LDK Apartment in Central Sapporo with Panoramic City Views
This well-maintained apartment, located in the States Minami 14-jo Grand Valene building in Sapporo's central Chuo Ward, offers a generous 102.00 sqm (approximately 30.85 tsubo) of living space configured as a 4LDK. Built in February 1999, the property underwent a full renovation seven years ago, presenting a modern and move-in-ready interior. Its prime location is just a one-minute walk from the Sapporo City Tram Line's "Nishisen 14-jo" station, providing exceptional convenience for daily commuting.
The property is equipped with a comprehensive range of facilities for comfortable urban living. These include city gas, air conditioning, an elevator, a parcel delivery box, a bidet toilet seat, a bathroom dryer, an indoor laundry machine space, a system kitchen, a bay window, and lighting fixtures included. The apartment is situated on the top floor and features a balcony with two exposures, offering ample light and ventilation. Additional practical features include a trunk room, storage space, a TV monitor intercom, a bicycle parking area, and an outdoor motorcycle parking space.
Special notes indicate that pets are negotiable ("ペット相談"), the building exterior is tile-clad for durability and aesthetics, and there is a daytime building manager ("管理人日勤") on-site, ensuring security and maintenance. The building itself is a robust 15-story above-ground, 1-story below-ground SRC (steel-framed reinforced concrete) structure with 181 units, managed by a fully entrusted management association. Monthly fees include 7,470 JPY for management and 16,420 JPY for repair reserve fund.
The surrounding Chuo Ward area is one of Sapporo's most vibrant districts, known for its blend of commercial activity, dining, and green spaces. An interesting fact is that beneath the streets of central Sapporo lies an extensive network of underground pedestrian passages and shopping malls, known as "chika michi," which provide shelter from the famous heavy winter snowfalls. The closest major landmark is the iconic Sapporo Clock Tower, a historic wooden building and symbol of the city, located just a short tram ride away in the heart of the downtown area.
