Property Description

Alcyon Asakusa Kokusai-dori stands on Kokusai-dori at Nishi-Asakusa 2-chome in Taito Ward — a reinforced-concrete building of fifteen storeys over one basement level, completed in April 2001 and holding sixty-six residences. This residence is a corner unit on the fifth floor: a 1LDK of 40.01 sq m on the wall-centre measurement with a balcony of 5.00 sq m, held freehold on commercial-zoned land.

The specification recorded in the listing material includes a system kitchen with a three-ring hob, a reheating bath, a warm-water washing seat, storage to every room, city gas and air conditioning. The building has an auto-locked entrance with a monitored intercom and a lift. Management is fully outsourced with a caretaker on a visiting schedule, at JPY 8,914 a month with a repair reserve of JPY 14,947 a month. Pets are subject to consultation; the conditions set by the management association are confirmed on enquiry.

The residence is vacant and can be handed over immediately. The floor plan supplied for this listing carries no room names or dimensions, so the internal arrangement is described here only as far as the material states it; the aspect and the outlook are confirmed on enquiry.

Location, Transit & Everyday Convenience

The building stands on Kokusai-dori at Nishi-Asakusa 2-chome, the western edge of Asakusa. The listing material records Asakusa Station on the Tsukuba Express at approximately two minutes on foot, Tawaramachi on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line at four minutes and Asakusa on the same line at seven.

The Tsukuba Express runs south to Akihabara in a few stops; the Ginza Line runs through Ueno, Nihonbashi, Ginza and on to Shibuya. Journey times vary with the service, so none are stated here.

Asakusa is one of the few districts in Tokyo where an ordinary residential street and a destination sit together: Senso-ji and Nakamise are a short walk east, Kappabashi's kitchenware street is immediately west, and Ueno — with its park, museums and the Shinkansen — is one stop away. Everyday shopping, clinics and restaurants are on Kokusai-dori itself.

Taito Ward Rental, Land and Price Trends

Rents, land prices and transaction prices in Tokyo have all been moving upward, and Taito Ward is at the front of the land series.

In the Reiwa 8 (2026) Official Land Price Survey, commercial land in Taito Ward rose 19.1% on the previous year — the largest increase of any of Tokyo's 23 wards, against 13.8% for the 23 wards as a whole. This building stands on commercial-zoned land. Residential land in the ward rose 14.2%, and the all-use average rose 18.5%.

In the At Home – Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Research Institute Mansion Rent Index for Q1 2026, the compact-type index for Tokyo's 23 wards — units of 30 to under 60 sq m, the band this 40.01 sq m residence falls into — rose approximately 5.6% year on year. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's Real Estate Price Index puts condominium prices in Tokyo at 234.8 for December 2025 against a 2010 average of 100 — a rise of approximately 9.6% on the same month a year earlier.

These figures describe Taito Ward, Tokyo's 23 wards and Tokyo as a whole, not this individual residence. The land figure is an average across all official reference points in the ward and is not an appraisal of this address; the rent index covers quality-adjusted contracted rents for condominium-type buildings across the 23 wards, not this address; the price index is a statistical series for Tokyo. None of them guarantees future rent, value or performance.

Our Observations

Forty square metres as a 1LDK, two minutes from a station, serves two buyers at once: someone who wants a Tokyo base to lock and leave, and someone buying to let. Asakusa is one of the few addresses in the city where visitor demand and ordinary residential demand sit on the same street, and Kokusai-dori keeps the everyday side of that — shops, clinics, restaurants — within the block.

The residence itself is the practical kind. A corner unit on the fifth floor of a reinforced-concrete building of sixty-six homes, with a reheating bath, a three-ring hob, storage to every room and an auto-locked entrance. It is vacant with immediate handover, which matters if the plan is to let it or to use it from the first month rather than wait out a tenancy.

Taito Ward recorded the strongest commercial land rise of any of Tokyo's 23 wards this year at 19.1%, and the title is freehold. At twenty-five years old, the repair reserve balance and the management association's long-term plan are the first documents to request; both can be confirmed on enquiry. Future property value and market performance cannot be guaranteed.
