Land City Yokohama Yamate Gobankan is a ten-storey, 35-residence reinforced concrete building at 1-9 Negishi-Asahidai in Naka Ward, Yokohama, completed in January 2004 by Hazama Corporation. The building sits on the hillside above Negishi, reached by a stone staircase through planted terraces. This fourth-floor residence is a south-east facing 3LDK of 80.06 sq m, arranged as a 16.9-mat living dining kitchen, western rooms of 7 and 6 mats, a 5.9-mat Japanese-style room and a balcony of 12.13 sq m.
The listing material records an interior renovation completed in July 2026: the kitchen, bathroom, WC and washroom were replaced, and the wallpaper, flooring, wall and ceiling finishes and interior doors were renewed throughout. Fittings include a counter kitchen with a dishwasher, a bathroom with reheating and a drying function, a warm-water washing WC, underfloor heating, a walk-in closet, downlighting and an alcove entrance. The floor plan notes high sashes to the living room and a sea view from the balcony.
The building has a monitored auto-lock entrance, a video intercom and a planted courtyard, and is managed under a fully outsourced contract with a daytime caretaker and a management association in place. Parking is recorded as available at no charge. Pets — small dogs, large dogs and cats — are accepted subject to the building's rules. The residence is vacant, with handover scheduled for mid-August 2026.

Monthly charges are the management fee of JPY 22,165 and the repair reserve contribution of JPY 30,730 as stated in the listing material. The reserve contribution is substantial for a building of this size and age, and the long-term repair plan is worth reviewing on enquiry.
The renovation date and scope are as recorded in the listing material and remain subject to verification.
Parking is recorded as available at no charge; the allocation, the terms and any waiting list are confirmed on enquiry.
The building stands at 1-9 Negishi-Asahidai in Naka Ward, Yokohama, on the wooded hillside that runs between Yamate and Negishi. The listing material records Negishi Station on the JR Keihin-Tohoku and Negishi Line at approximately ten minutes on foot.
The Negishi Line runs north through Ishikawacho — the station for Motomachi, Chinatown and the Yamate bluff — to Kannai, Sakuragicho and Yokohama, and continues onto the Keihin-Tohoku Line to Kawasaki, Shinagawa, Tokyo and Ueno without a change. Journey times vary with the service and any changes, so none are stated here.
Negishi-Asahidai is a quiet residential neighbourhood of houses and low-rise apartment buildings, and the listing material describes it as a settled residential district. Negishi Forest Park — the 18-hectare park on the site of Japan's first Western-style racecourse — is 400 metres away, and the Yamate bluff with its Western houses, Motomachi shopping street and Yokohama Chinatown lie a short ride to the north.

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism’s Real Estate Price Index puts condominium prices in the Greater Tokyo area — Saitama, Chiba, Tokyo and Kanagawa — at 219.8 for December 2025 against a 2010 average of 100, a rise of approximately 8.0% on the same month a year earlier.
In the At Home – Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Research Institute Mansion Rent Index for Q1 2026, the family-type index for Yokohama and Kawasaki — units of 60 to under 100 sq m, the band this 80.06 sq m residence falls into — stood at 144.62 against a 2009 base of 100, approximately 3.3% higher than a year earlier.
These figures describe the Greater Tokyo area and the Yokohama–Kawasaki rental market as a whole, not this individual property. The price index is a statistical series covering Saitama, Chiba, Tokyo and Kanagawa together; the rent index covers quality-adjusted contracted rents for condominium-type buildings across Yokohama and Kawasaki, not this address. Neither guarantees future rent, value or performance. The Tokyo Metropolitan Government land price survey used elsewhere on this site covers Tokyo only and is therefore not applied here.

This is the Yamate side of Yokohama — the wooded hillside above Negishi, where the streets are quiet and the buildings are low. Negishi Forest Park is four hundred metres away, which for a family or a second home is worth more than a few minutes off the commute: eighteen hectares of lawn and mature trees on the site of Japan's first Western-style racecourse, open every day and free.
The residence itself has just been renovated — July 2026, with the kitchen, bathroom, WC and washroom all replaced and the flooring, wallpaper and doors renewed throughout — so a buyer takes an 80 sq m three-room home in finished condition. It is south-east facing on the fourth floor with a 12 sq m balcony, and the floor plan notes a sea view from it. Parking comes at no charge, and pets including large dogs are accepted; neither is easy to find in Tokyo at this price.
Two things to weigh honestly. The monthly charges are JPY 52,895, which is high for 80 sq m — the repair reserve alone is JPY 30,730, reflecting a 2004 building with a long-term plan to fund, so ask for that plan. And Negishi is a ten-minute walk, on the Negishi Line rather than a Tokyo subway. What you get in return is space, quiet and a park, at a price that would buy a one-bedroom flat in central Tokyo.
