About the Property

Two Centuries of Tokyo, Held in a Single Corner Above the Water
There are addresses that simply place you in Tokyo. And there are addresses that let you possess it. The 31st-floor corner residence at Capital Gate Place The Tower belongs, unmistakably, to the second.

Two Centuries of Tokyo, Held in a Single Corner Above the Water
There are addresses that simply place you in Tokyo. And there are addresses that let you possess it. The 31st-floor corner residence at Capital Gate Place The Tower belongs, unmistakably, to the second.

An Island Written by History.
Tsukishima is not a district one stumbles upon — it is one of Tokyo’s most quietly remarkable creations. The very ground beneath this tower was raised from the Sumida River in 1892, when the silt of imperial-era dredging was sculpted into an island. Step across a single canal and you reach Tsukuda — the fishing settlement established under the patronage of Tokugawa Ieyasu himself, where artisans summoned from Osaka in the early 1600s gave Japan both its first organized fish market and the very word tsukudani. Four hundred years of Edo memory sit moments from your door. To live here is to hold something no newly minted tower district can manufacture: genuine, irreplaceable provenance.

A Corner That Owns Two Skies.
From the 31st floor of this 53-story landmark, the residence opens to the south-west and the north-west at once. To the south-west, the Sumida River and Tokyo Bay carry the light from morning gold to evening amber. To the north-west, the towers of Ginza and Marunouchi assemble on the horizon. Two panoramas, two entirely different Tokyos — both present, always, from the same 26.4 sqm living and dining space, and from a 13.70 sqm corner balcony suspended above the waterfront. The 3LDK layout — a 10.7 sqm master bedroom and two further bedrooms of 9.5 and 8.5 sqm — has been comprehensively renovated to completion in late January 2026: new wallcoverings and flooring, a new unit bath, vanity and toilet, new air conditioning, interior doors and downlights throughout. A home delivered move-in ready, performing equally as a primary residence, a family base, or an elegant private retreat.

The Quiet Luxury of Disappearing Friction.
Tsukishima Station connects directly to the building. There is no walk. There is no weather. The Tokyo Metro Yurakucho and Toei Oedo lines begin, in effect, at your private elevator — Ginza in five minutes, Tokyo Station in fifteen. And here is the rare duality of this address: the stillness of Tsukuda’s Edo-era lanes and the monja-yaki culture of the historic Nishinaka shopping street on one side; the Michelin-starred dining rooms of Ginza, five minutes north, on the other. Serenity and stimulation — never a compromise between them.

An Asset Anchored in Scarcity.
The eastern waterfront is in the midst of a transformation measured in hundreds of billions of yen. Adjacent in Tsukishima 3-chome, the 58-story, 1,285-residence Grand City Tower Tsukishima completes in 2026; the Tsukishima 3-chome South District redevelopment — led by Mitsui Fudosan Residential and Nomura Real Estate — follows with a further tower and public plazas. As each new landmark raises the entire district’s standing, established freehold towers of proven quality are re-rated upward, not eclipsed. With full freehold land rights and a position no future construction can replicate, this residence is scarcity made tangible.

Stewardship Worthy of the Asset.
Developed by Mitsui Fudosan Residential and Nomura Real Estate, built by Shimizu Corporation, and managed today by Mitsui Fudosan Residential Service — the tower’s 737-residence scale is precisely what sustains a robust repair reserve, professional daytime staffing, and the disciplined security that protects both your privacy and your asset for decades. Ownership here is not a responsibility. It is a release from one.

Japan holds something rare in the world of luxury real estate: properties that do not announce themselves, estates
Japan holds something rare in the world of luxury real estate: properties that do not announce themselves, estates shaped by centuries of cultural intention, and land whose value is understood only by those who seek it with patience.

TonTon Forbes Global Properties was founded to serve that pursuit. As Japan’s exclusive partner of Forbes Global Properties, we operate at the intersection of deep local knowledge and a truly global network — giving our clients access not only to the finest listed properties, but to the opportunities that never reach the open market.

We work with a deliberately small number of clients at any one time. This is a choice, not a limitation. It allows us to provide the level of attention — to due diligence, to cultural nuance, to long-term advisory — that exceptional real estate demands.

Our team is fluent in the language of international acquisition: the questions that matter, the timelines that must be respected, and the sensitivities that distinguish a transaction from a legacy.

For clients whose ambitions extend beyond the visible, we are ready to begin.

Our advisory team brings together backgrounds in international finance, Japanese property law, and cross-border transaction management. All client engagements are led by a named advisor — ensuring continuity, accountability, and the depth of relationship that exceptional decisions require.
