Compact and Convenient Apartment in Yokosuka
This modern apartment, located in Yokosuka City, Kanagawa Prefecture, offers a surprisingly well-equipped living space within a compact 12.59 sqm (approximately 3.8 tsubo) floor plan. The unit is a one-room layout on the second floor of a two-story wooden apartment building constructed in June 2021. Key features include a system kitchen with an IH cooking heater, a separate bath and toilet, air conditioning in all rooms, and 24-hour ventilation. The apartment comes with flooring throughout, a loft space, and is furnished with a refrigerator and other appliances. It is also an internet-ready corner unit on the top floor, offering two-sided natural light for a brighter atmosphere.
Significant financial incentives are provided by the landlord. The fire insurance premium and initial guarantee fee are covered by the lessor. Furthermore, the total rent for the first two months is half price. After this initial period, the monthly cost will be 44,000 yen in rent plus 4,000 yen in common service fees. Other move-in costs include a key exchange fee starting from 33,000 yen, but no security deposit (敷金) or key money (礼金) is required. The property is currently vacant and ready for immediate occupancy.
The apartment is situated in a highly accessible area of Yokosuka. It is just a 5-minute walk from Kihinkyuko Dentetsu Honsen's Oi-hama Station, providing excellent connectivity. The surrounding area is rich in naval history, as Yokosuka is home to a major Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force base and was historically a significant port for the U.S. Navy. A major nearby landmark is the Mikasa Park, which features the preserved battleship Mikasa, a pre-dreadnought warship that served as the flagship of Admiral Togo Heihachiro during the Russo-Japanese War and is now a museum ship.
