The Space
In a tranquil setting just minutes away from the charming Azabu Juban area.
The house was designed and built in 2008. We used a leading Japanese designer / architect Baqueratta. They have created a beautiful house full of light and with a feeling of space.
It has 4 bedrooms and can accommodate up to 9 people + baby cot in fine style. There are two bathrooms including an en-suite bathroom for the main bedroom.
The open plan living, kitchen, dining room is amazing. High ceilings with large windows allowing an abundance of light while providing total privacy. It is the perfect place to cook and relax.
There is also a roof balcony with grass and a BBQ area. Take in the local scenery while relaxing in this central Tokyo sanctuary.

Guest access
You'll have the entire house to yourselves.
The floor configuration is as follows (please also see house plan among the listing photos)
1F (note: 1F in Japan = ground floor): garage, entrance hall, traditional Japanese style tatami room, interior courtyard garden. For larger groups the tatami room can be configured to sleep up to 3 Japanese style on comfortable single futons laid out on the floor. The room size is approx 2.5 x 3m so a 3 guest configuration is probably best for younger guests as it is quite cosy. Our kids enjoy using this when they have friends for stayovers.
2F: 1 x twin bedroom with 2 x single beds (can be configured to a double bed upon request) + 1 x double bedroom (bed size 150 x 196), main bathroom with bath, rain shower, double basins, separate toilet.

Please contact us for further details and pricing.
We can also offer a concierge service to help you get around this wonderful but at times confusing city and assist with restaurant / tour bookings. Just ask in advance.
If you are planning a stay please think of it like staying at a friends' house in a foreign city, those friends being on call to look after you during your stay and make sure you're having a good time. Compared with staying in a nice hotel you'll get more space and privacy, the ability to experience life like a local including the possibility of cooking at home.
