If you owned this place, what would you do with the interior?
Probably a contemporary or modernish style with utilitarian purpose.
That giant windowsill in the living room is getting covered in pillows.
Same thing I did with my American house, Nissan and Sports stuff with wall to wall manga.
I'd make sure no one could see in the living room and then I'd turn the furniture to face the view. Possibly remove a bedroom to create a larger 2nd bedroom and more storage in the gankon(sp?), and try to enlarge that guest loo a smidge so they could pee without bumping their shoulders on the walls.
I’d go for the luxury five star hotel feel (lush and comfy bed in the master bedroom, a relaxing sofa where you can fall asleep on when you watch Netflix and a table where you can have star dinners and long conversations with your friends). And I’d spend serious amounts of money on the right lighting with warm tones and a decent soundsystem/TV/homecinema.
now just to win the lotto
Agreed this apartment is really intriguing.
tbh, I'd probably rather just buy a cheaper apartment then renovate it, I didn't like the design that much
hmu when you do
My lottery dream home Japan version
It sure is beautiful but for someone that will live alone it might just be a little too big and I know, the bigger the better, but the bigger it is the more expensive it'll be so I'd go for something that looks good but is pretty medium sized even though I'd love a big apartment at the same time
Really love how go through the neighborhood in each video and that you show the plan design of where you are in for every room. Really helps for someone who normally gets disoriented watching house tours.
The livingroom is the absolute showpiece of this penthouse! Simply amazing!
It's tiny! There's no space . . .
@@sameebah japanese love tiny house.
This is singlehandedly the best house/appartment you've shown in your video. It has everything I'd want from appartment, and the view is just spectacular. Well, everything but the price :D Good video, keep up the good work :)
Totally agree. i believe most of the price are into location anyway.
You should see the apartment he showed in Sharlas channel, it was really big and beautiful, but it was 13,000 dollars a month in rent
$3m gets you less in Sydney AUS
From my perspective its a good deal.
@@MikeOxlong99.9 like the guy who replied to me said, i think most of the price comes from the location of the apartment
I wouldn't pay a penny over ¥368,700,000 for that place. Do they negotiate?
I think we can talk them down to that
That place is stunning I wish we could see the city view when its night
Something about that living room gives off a very late 80's - mid 90's vibe.
It's the accent lighting in the ceiling. Very 'MIAMI VICE'.
I wonder if this type of buildings in Japan also have amenities such as 24/7 concierge service, gym, pool or laundry room
Can’t remember if they had a gym when I viewed the building. They had a party room and guest room. Pool and laundry rooms are not common in Japanese apartment complexes. Concierge is during business hours, I think.
0:55 is there family mart nearby for Chris broad?
1:45 this is really funny because their staging amounted to a plant and pillow. A lot house tours are staged pretty nicely so it’s funny an expensive apartment doesn’t have much.
I didn't spot anywhere it hook up a washing machine without cluttering up the aesthetics (unless it's integrated under a kitchen counter, perhaps). Presumably if you're plonking down $3M for a flat you're likely getting laundry service done elsewhere in the building?
Good point.
The laundry machine goes in the bathroom, like most Japanese homes. They are almost never included, so you'd have to buy your own separately
@@TokyoPortfolio Similar to much of continental Europe (in Britain the washing machine hookup is generally in the kitchen, either in a gap in the cabinetry or behind a door like many dishwashers).
@@countertony If you look at the floorplan at any point (for example 4:27) ,you'll see the dedicated nook for the washing machine in the bathroom.
@@jannyyy2722 Ah yes, labelled 'W', above the bottom-right pillar. I'd assume once the place is bought it would be boxed in fairly swiftly, again to minimise its visibility.
This is a really nice apartment, and well if I had 3 million dollars and was looking to get an apartment with a nice view In Tokyo id consider it but my biggest problem is the 1.5 bathrooms, since if you have someone else living with you like kids or guests staying over they would have to shower in your bathroom which, at least I, don't find acceptable for that kind of price. Now if you plan on living by yourself or with your SO, not having any kids or guest staying over Its pretty cool option.
woah ! that's awesome
can you do more of these house tours in OSAKA ?! please
Ok, I'll have it. I just need to find roughly $3m
Would be great if you included the types of views you get at night.
A bit disappointing for the Penthouse unless the luxury suites are simply called Penthouse. However, that view alone might make it worth it.
Even the "posh" parts of Tokyo look rather depressing...
is japan apartment depreciation or appreciation over the years? i heard that house in jp lose it values overtime
That's the overall trend, but not in certain areas of Tokyo like this one
Alex, in a place like this, we need to know about parking and valet? is there a 24/7 doorman/security, and what about your refuse/recycling- or is that for the help-staff to know about and the homeowner is worry free?
Good point, but these buildings don't usually allow you to film in the common areas. Amenities in most Japanese buildings are pretty sparse, but for this building, it has 24-hour security, a concierge, and a rentable guest room. For garbage and recycling, it has garbage collection rooms on each floor, but having people there to help with it isn't really a thing in Japan.
@@TokyoPortfolio E-bike storage room isn't a common thing yet? It's rather big amenity in North America a lot of management companies are asking for.
@@TokyoPortfolio Thank you!
Nice apartment, reasonable price 👍🏿〰️🌷〰️💛〰️🌼〰️❤️〰️🤲〰️🎶〰️
can you show us one of those new build houses that are popular on social media?
Surprised the glass in those living room windows hasn't cracked with how hard that city view is carrying the rest of the penthouse.
Until you come to the living room, I didn't see any "luxury". But at 3M, this still seems overrated.
Thanks
3mi and you don't have your own bathroom? You are just paying for the location and view.
"you dont have to argue between which is his and hers...."
its always all hers isnt it lol?
the apartment got that authentic boxy Japanese feel
What a load of shit for 3 mill. I'd rather stay in my ikebukero 3 times the size and one tenth of the price place.
Loving the view!!
Love the colour grading in your videos
So, two questions:
What is that trapdoor thing on the second balcony? Is it for garbage disposal?
And how to you fill the bathtub? Is doesn't seem to have a tap and I don't suppose that you only have the showerhead to fill the bathtub.
The trap door is for the fire escape, and the baths are filled up from the bottom, using the water heating panel I mentioned
@@TokyoPortfolio thanks! Now all I need are 3 million dollsrs.
3.000.000 for 132m^2 with a shower/bath room that really rings true to the rather derogative German word “Nasszelle” or “Wet Cell”.
Y’all, I just can’t with japanese bathrooms!
And how does the place not get moldy after a while if the entire room gets wet and steamy with no window to let the humidity and evaporation dissipate?
That's what the bathroom dryer is for
If someone asked me, I would said 300-400 k.
This is the best apartment I’ve seen so far on your channel.
That living room view is amazingly picturesque.
3:36 after having a large walk in closet myself, I find that they're absolutely useless unless it's a full room that would equal a normal bedroom.
That walking space would be better put to use as just extra space for the room.
Any building amenities, i.e., gym, doorman, parking, seismic design, how far from the closest train station? What train line?
For amenities, there's only a concierge, lobby lounge/upper floor lounge, and parking deck. It is bult with seismic dampers. The closest station is Toranomon Hills or Kamiyacho station on the Hibiya Line, and it is about 5 minutes to either
I thought sure by now i would be living here a luxurious life eating expensive brunch sipping expensive champagne.
I wonder if this side and the Tokyo Tower view side are equally priced?
RIDICULOUS costs.........
insane, goals af
this is overvalued.
Living room view is the best part.3million is rather rich though.Give me the robot hotel for tokyo jaunts and a ground floor home outside the city within a 2-3 hr trip and id be happy.
How much is the south corner facing penthouse? I imagine it is much more expensive with the view of the Tokyo tower.
I want to see a two level Duplex apartment with stairs, not one on the ground but a duplex higher up in a building like you sometimes get in NYC. There's something so great about them.
I think there are some duplex apartments in Toyosu right at the top of some of the big condos there - I believe around the 250 million yen mark. Bit cheaper than the apartment in this video, around the same size but also not as good location.
It’s a beautiful appartement but I’m a little disappointed that it didn’t come with all of the furniture 😢 for the price 😅
👍👍 Spectaculaire!
Don't get me wrong I love the penthouse but WOW is that high up. What floor is it on??
What a magnificent view
That view is amazing.
The bedrooms, no matter how much you spend, are small, and the counters are so low they'd give me back pain.
Wish your videos were longer
This interior is gorgeous and the views are spectacular. $3M USD? If I had the money and was in the market, absolutely. I would love to live in this condo. Thanks for showing us the property, Alex.
SOME OF THE LUXURY APARTMENTS IN TOKYO/ JAPAN, THE INTERIOR FITTINGS ARE VERY AVERAGE BUT PRACTICAL....THE MATERIALS INSTALLED LOOKS STANDARDISED AND SIMPLE.
Only 3000100$ left to this Appartement
LMFAOOO
having the kitchen and living room together is just cheating you out of space. i don't like that
The flooring is gorgeous, compared with the "traditional" tatami BS. EDIT: The whole place is amazing.
In the US, we would call this property a one bedroom with den and utility room with a view. When compared to comparable apartments in San Francisco or NYC, seems overpriced no? Also what are amenities and monthly fees?
Honestly one of the most overpriced cities in the world for space, for 3mil my 8 year old daughter’s bedroom is way bigger than the master in this. Surely this is just because it’s in Tokyo? I mean in London for the same amount of money you’d deffo get a bigger apartment easily
I've been looking for someplace to live for quite some time now and i think I've made my decision. what do you guys think?
Can't even imagine living so high off the ground. Since 9/11 I refuse to live anywhere near those death traps. In Oz you can buy Ocean front for $1M on 500 sqM site and 300 sqM house. Nothing beats miles of open beach.
Lovely living room/kitchen area. Bedrooms are still too small imho, not a fan of the layout they have going on. At the very least, combine the two smaller bedrooms into a more sizable room. Also, where do guests shower? In your master bath? Call me stingy, but sharing a bath for a $3mil apartment doesn't sound right lol. But a nice property nonetheless.
It's a nice place, but really you're just paying for the location and view. I think there's more value in some of the other places you've shown. Hell, for that price I'd buy me a decent house Tokyo instead.
No full second bathroom makes the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms totally pointless. What am I supposed to do? Let guests trek through my master bedroom to shower in my personal bathroom? Ridiculous. For $3m they could have at least worked a shower stall into the second bathroom.
That view though 😍✨
Can’t imagine how amazing it would be to wake up to that and eat breakfast there everyday
I’m not poor 🙈 but not that rich 😅 omg it looks amazing ❤
It’s always cool to see you post
Is it just me or does all Japanese apartments etc look like the wests did in the 90’s? (Not the technology or anything just the look)
maybe it’s because because we now live in white and glass boxes in the sky in the west lll
Anybody have $3 million that I can barrow? I probably won't be able to pay it back.
Main thing I can't stand about Japanese apartments is the low ceilings and their Ikea-looking cabinets. Even for $3 million you can't get a 3m ceiling or custom fabricated cabinets. The low ceilings make their already small size feel even more cramped, and I'm not even that tall (178 cm) and the cabinets - all the fixtures in general - scream "cheap". That's a major deal breaker for me at that price point.
There's condos with 3m+ ceilings but they cost a minimum of $15m and I can't show them here. Email me if you're looking for something nicer.
About $2.5 million usd now as Yen depreciates
Why do they always have glass doors/walls in bathrooms? Is this some kind of smart glass?
I hope you don't take this the wrong way because I think your content is great. I think you should shave and wear a nice suit in your video. It will fit the residences better.
In Manhattan 3m will get you a roll of toilet paper (half used) and a pet rat.
Rooms are pretty small tho. And not much luxurious wood.
If you have 3mil please consider building a village
2:59 Second bedroom? You get a bed inside this room? XD
was there anything special about that small window with handles in the kitchen?
i couldn't live in a high rise, it takes 10min just to leave the building.
I think this is the first apartment where I am not mad with it (maybe the marble floor in the livingroom but eh). The structure is reasonable (unlike some outrageous others you have shown) and it has everything this time! The price is astronomical but at least it makes more sense than the others
where to put the tv ? - also it really is insane how ofens are actually completly rare in east asian countries as mit european that would almost mean the deat h of me - like where to i make bread?
I wish we had those fish grills implanted into the stove in the US
Three million gets you a renovated one car garage in Palo Alto.
nice doors :)
The sexiest Japanese real estate agent!🥰🥰🥰🥰
You pay for the urban landscape
This is almost my dream property. I would love to sit on those windowsills at night and admire the beautiful city at night. Only thing missing is a balcony or rooftop garden. I hope you can feature more of those kind!
3:16 theres no Window shot in the master bedroom i wanted to see if its a big window 😅
Honestly not in love with the flow of the home
Looks like a apartment in Manhattan
Keep making video ❤
Foreigners buy but who can they resell to? Local or foreigners? Is there rental demand for this 3 mil Pty? What’s the rental like? Think 3 mil can buy a tiny landed house 50mins away from city ..might be more worth
Both locals and foreigners would buy this, and the current owner is a Japanese corporation. If you were to rent it out, it would be about ¥1m per month.
What's the song @1:38?
Why do they keep building properties for rich people.. considering that the fastest growing demographic are the low income ones??
If anything the ultra-luxury market is growing significantly in Tokyo
Ordinarily, at this price point, as a consumer, I'd want entertaining capability, but for this location in Tokyo, I bet you'd have to pay $5 - 6 million for genuine entertainment capability.
I never understood the "glamour" of living high up in the sky, away from trees, plants, birds etc.
Looks so cold and dystopian.
Pretty basic 👎🏻
12 months later and exchange rates would make it just under 2.5 million usd
Yeah, definitely not what I expected when I filmed it
if i win the lottery i am gonna buy EVERYTHING. Your whole portfolio is gonna be mine haha
Nice condo. Still wouldn't pay 3M for a condo apartment. I understand the market over there is different of course
