the True Modern, Stylish Apartment in Shirokane, Tokyo

So we have couple clients who’d like to move in a stylish apartment. But,
what is a stylish apartment? Those designer’s apartments? Well, they look cool but I am not sure my normal taste
furniture can fit there. A brand new apartment? Yes, but, after I see couple of new apartments, I can’t quite tell
the different from one another. They all look nice but I just want a little bit extra.

For those people, I suggest Apartments Shirokane Park Front
You know some restaurants hiding in the back street, which are not easy to find(オシャレな隠れ家的な) but tasty and stylish.
That is how the Apartments Shirokane Park Front is.

Hiroo – National Azabu super market & Bella Casa Hiroo

National Azabu Super market at Hiroo is closed until 2012 August for renovation
but they have small temporary shop open at the same corner!
We also found 100 yen shop and small local grocery store, so I believe this would
support the minimum daily needs for now.
Can’t wait for the national Azabu to come back.

And we also found a comparatively cheap apartment in Hiroo, with
No keymoney and 1 month deposit only!
Property is not brand new as most of our client prefer, but as the location is great
with having 2 supermarkets and parks within walking distance, I believe this
is once of a good choice I would be providing to my client.
With under 200,000 yen, you can have 2 bed rooms!!

Shinagawa – NY week, King like chair and furnished apartment

I went to Shinagawa today, on the Konan-side and realize quite a few restaurants and cafes are at station building called “Atre”. They were having New York x Shinagawa week, which was also new for me. When I went in there, as I saw quite a few foreigner, it gave me a feeling that I was not in Tokyo, but somewhat more foreign location. Atre in Shinagawa, somehow, make me feel like I was back in Australia for a while.

That was until I saw this shoe-polish place where you sit on the throne like chair. I understand that Japanese workers were under a lot of stress. This probably was one of the new way they found to relieve that tension.
Bare in mind, this picture was taken early in the morning, around 10:00 AM. Shoes are needed to be polished…yes, but really? Well, I did not have a chance to try, but definitely will do so next time when I visit Shinagawa.
I hope this becomes a small trend that at every station of Tokyo JR yamanote, there will be throne like chair.

I also saw this nice condominium at Shinagawa, close by to Tennozu Isle, head quarter of Citi group in Japan. It had 24 hour super market, fitness gym, swimming pool, small play ground for children, and shuttle bus from property to Shinagawa station (all separate fee, but great facility nevertheless). Within the premises they had clinics, dental office, masseur, concierge service, dry cleaning and also a great ocean view from the room!

We only have one furnished room available now, but if you are looking for 2 bed room furnished apartment in Tokyo, this is definitely one of the choice I will not miss out on.
The great thing is, the owner is a foreign person too, so I believe there will be more understanding
than feeling the difference and wall of Japanese culture.
If you want more information on this furnished apartment, feel free to let us know.

Floor heating

It snowed last night in Tokyo and
the temperature reached nearly 0℃.

When I came back to my apartment,
it was so freezing that I could not walk
on barefoot.

It was the moment that I wished to have
floor heating so badly and consider moving
to a new place with it.

This apartment came into my mind immediately although it is merely a dream…

Azabu Juban -proffered area among expatriates

Azabujuban short formed “Azabu” has quite a few embassies and good mixture of Japanese local culture and fashionable culture, which provides the great atmosphere.

The central shopping street on Azabu has 20 over restaurants and cafe for the relaxing afternoon. Latest addition of my preference is darjeeling tea shop.
There’s also Starbucks coffee if you prefer American style coffee.

For those who are considering to reside at this area, there are few supermarkets within 5-10 minutes radius. Your choices includes local chain store peacock and Nisshin international supermarket for your daily needs.

Azabujuban unfortunately do not have JR line, but has
two subway line, Namboku line and Oedo line which gives you easy access to
Meguro, Roppongi, Yotsuya, Daimon, Yoyogi, and Shinjuku.
You could also enjoy casual walk to Roppongi. It should only take about 15 minutes from Azabu juban, and you can enjoy more restaurants and activities in Roppongi. This is the great part of Azabu. If you are fine with 15 minutes walking distance, you can also add movie theater and art museum to your daily activity list.

Azabujuban area is one of the preferred area amongst expatriates families as
few nursery and international schools are around Nishiazabu / Hiroo area, not far from Azabu.

If you are interested in more information on Azabujuban area, let us know!
We have extensive lists of apartments in Azabu.

Buy a dream and help reconstruct Earthquake damage

Did you know that you can buy lottery to help Japan reconstruct the damage from earth quake?
“Green Jumbo”, one of the largest lottery in Japan, is providing its revenue (minus the payouts) to prefectures in Japan where its’ damaged from earth quake in 2011, March 11th.
If you see people lining up at station to buy something other than train ticket,
this could be it.
You may also find for the Japanese writing “グリーンジャンボ” (green jumbo) or “宝くじ” (lottery) with the cue.

You can buy each lottery at 300yen and the winning price is
30 billion yen (380million US by today rate).

I never bought a lottery myself. Nor a fan of gambling at all but this is a nice chance to provide some support and at the same time try my luck.

This is not the best way to help reconstruction, but if I am doing nothing, I would say it is better than nothing!

And when you win, let us know. We will be more than happy to help you find a great apartment/ house in Tokyo!

Here’s some of our most luxurious apartment in Daikanyama.

Who wanna get chocolates?

Happy Valentine’s Day!
Hi, I’m Naomi again!

How many chocolates did you get?
If I ask you, you may wonder why I ask the question.

It is because Japan has a culture that girls pass the chocolates to boys who they love in Valentine’s Day.
There are some different stories about the origin of the culture, and I am not sure when it happens exactly.
However, it is one of the interesting culture!
If you are a girl, you should try once ;)

If you would like to pass the chocolate, I will recommend you one chocolate shop at Azabujyuban.

The name of the shop is “Mon loire”.

They provide you special chocolates.
Their truffles are good!
You should try once!
If you would like to know the details, please access to the following website.

https://www.monloire.co.jp/shop_azabujyuuban.html

The closest property for the chocolate shop is Apartments Tower Azabujyuban

Please check the property, too
