A 6LDK This Close to Tokyo!?

It’s not just the space that stands out. From the quiet residential surroundings to the clever layout and bonus upstairs sink, this house is the kind of listing that surprises you, in the best way.

Just 40 minutes to Akihabara!

Located in Kashiwa, Chiba -- a commuter-friendly city with direct train lines into central Tokyo. This 2-story, 6LDK home is a rare blend of size, style, and location. Built in 2000 and situated just a 13-minute walk from Kashiwa Station, the property offers 118m² of living space on a 115m² lot.

✨ Why It Stands Out

🛏 6LDK Layout: A rare configuration with multiple Japanese and Western-style rooms across two floors, ideal for multi-generational living, co-living, or conversion into a spacious rental.

🛁 Functional Flow: Downstairs includes a full kitchen, two connected tatami rooms, and wet area. Upstairs features more bedrooms, a second toilet, and even an additional sink - perfect for flexible daily use or tenant setups.

🚶‍♂️ Prime Access: Only 13 minutes to Kashiwa Station, and a direct 40-minute train ride to Akihabara. Plus, walkable access to supermarkets and convenience stores within 7 minutes.

🚗 Parking Included: A dedicated space on the property means you’re covered whether you commute by train or prefer to drive.

🌿 Quiet Residential Vibes: Set in a calm suburban neighborhood, this home blends convenience with tranquility, something that’s getting harder to find this close to Tokyo.

📦 Move-In Ready Potential: While not newly renovated, the home is well maintained and livable as-is. Upgrade gradually or all at once, there’s room to make it yours without pressure.
