Charming Corner Lot Home in Tokyo – Recent Renovation!
Discover an excellent opportunity in Tachikawa, Tokyo! This charming 2-story wood house, located at 5-chōme-25-4 Sakaechō, offers a compact yet comfortable 1DK layout covering 44 m² (484 sq ft) on a 34 m² (366 sq ft) corner lot. Built in 1980, the property boasts a significant advantage: it underwent a full renovation in March 2024, including the kitchen, bathroom, toilet, interior walls, floors, ceilings, roof, and exterior walls, giving it a fresh, almost new feel perfect for starting a new chapter or attracting tenants.
Priced attractively at approximately $135,000 USD (all purchase costs included), this property represents an accessible entry into the Tokyo real estate market for both residents and investors.
Location is key, and this property offers convenient access to the Tachikawa Monorail line, with Izumi-Taiikukan Station just a 15-minute walk away and Tachihi Station reachable in approximately 5 minutes by bicycle, connecting you to the wider transportation network. Tachikawa Station itself is a major hub, providing direct train access to central Tokyo areas like Shinjuku in about 30-40 minutes, ideal for commuters or exploring the city.
The surrounding area is a comfortable residential neighborhood with essential amenities nearby. You’ll find a drugstore just 480m away, a supermarket 1140m away, and a convenience store 800m away, ensuring daily necessities are easily met. The property features a system kitchen, bathroom dryer/heater, monitor intercom for security, wooden flooring throughout, storage space (closet), and a lovely deck/garden area, offering a pleasant outdoor space. Being a corner lot adds to its appeal.
For leisure and tourism, the location offers access to several attractions within a reasonable commute. The vast and popular Showa Kinen Park (昭和記念公園), known for its seasonal flowers and recreational facilities, is a major draw within Tachikawa, easily accessible. For nature lovers, the famous Mount Takao (高尾山), a popular hiking destination and part of a UNESCO site, is less than an hour away by train or car. The area also benefits from major shopping centers like LaLaport Tachikawa Tachihi and IKEA. While not immediately next to an international airport, Haneda Airport (HND) and Narita Airport (NRT) are accessible by train/bus within 1 to 1.5 hours.
This renovated house is not only a potentially comfortable home for individuals or couples but also a strong candidate for rental investment, given its price point, recent renovation, desirable features, and convenient location relative to public transport, amenities, and local attractions. Whether you’re looking for your first home in Tokyo or a strategic investment property, this Sakaecho house warrants consideration.
