Seaside Villa Minami Atami: A Renovated Ocean-View Resort Condominium
This property is a renovated one-room apartment within the Seaside Villa Minami Atami condominium, offering a hotel-like experience with sweeping, unobstructed views of Sagami Bay. The unit is located on the 1st floor of a 9-story building, providing an immediate sense of proximity to the ocean. The interior has been fully renovated into a comfortable 1R layout with a total private floor area of 65.40 square meters, complemented by a spacious 15.88 square meter balcony perfect for enjoying the panoramic seascape.
According to the agent's notes, the property's equipment and utilities are supplied by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). The building itself is a steel-reinforced concrete structure built in January 1993. It features extensive resort amenities including a 24-hour hot spring bath (onsen), an outdoor pool open seasonally from the second Saturday of July to the second Sunday of September, and a lounge. The property is pet-friendly, subject to building regulations. Important notes indicate that the property is located within a sediment disaster warning area (yellow zone) and a sediment disaster special warning area (red zone). Renovation and repair work was completed in September 2021, with details available in a separate document. Parking is available outdoors for 22 vehicles at no charge, and there is also free bicycle parking.
The monthly running costs for villa use are detailed as 52,369 Yen, which breaks down into a 38,600 Yen management fee, an 11,580 Yen repair reserve fund, and a 3,789 Yen water base rate (billed every two months). Additional one-time costs include a 10,000 Yen contract stamp duty and an 884,400 Yen agency commission at the time of purchase.
The surrounding Atami area is a famous hot spring resort city on the coast of Shizuoka Prefecture, easily accessible from Tokyo via the Shinkansen. An interesting local fact is that Atami's name, meaning "hot ocean," comes from the natural hot springs that flow into the sea. The closest major landmark is the iconic Atami Castle, a reconstruction perched on a hill offering spectacular views over the city and the bay, blending history with the resort atmosphere.
