342 Sqm In The Samurai Quarter Of Ichigaya — The Scale That Shinjuku Ku No Longer Produces

① Property Highlights
Crest Court Sadohara rises within this context as one of the ward’s most considered residential addresses — 57 residences, reinforced concrete, 8 floors, completed December 1987, constructed by Takenaka Corporation, managed by Mitsubishi Estate Community with daily staffed concierge and security. The marble entrance lobby and motor court announce arrival in the register that the address demands. A party room, trunk room, and visitor parking complete a building amenity profile designed for residents who expect ownership to feel effortless.

The residence itself spans 342.04 sqm across a 5LDK + WIC configuration on the 6th floor. The living room alone measures approximately 80.8 sqm — a volume of domestic space so far outside the parameters of contemporary Tokyo residential development that it functions, in practical terms, as a separate category. A master bedroom of approximately 39.7 sqm. Four additional bedrooms. A dedicated dining room of approximately 28.8 sqm. Two bathrooms, three toilets. Renovated in March 2023 — new flooring, kitchen, toilets, and full air conditioning — and again in March 2026 with a new bathroom and shower room. Move in and begin.

342.04 sqm. 6th floor. 57 units. Freehold. Shinjuku-ku. ¥2,000,000,000.

The samurai who chose this ground understood something that the market has since confirmed. Elevation, composure, and the right address hold their value across any era.

② The Neighbourhood
Ichigaya Sadohara-cho is not a neighborhood that appears in travel guides or trending restaurant lists. It is a neighborhood that has been understood, quietly and continuously, by the kind of people who do not need to be told where to live. In the Edo period, this elevated ground between Ichigaya and Ushigome was lined with the residences of senior retainers and samurai of considerable standing — the administrative and martial class that held the city’s order from precisely this kind of elevated, composed, deliberately unhurried ground. That character has not left. The streets are still wide. The buildings are still low. The air still carries the particular quality of a place that has never needed to compete.

Ichigaya Station on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho and Namboku Lines is four minutes on foot. JR Sobu and Chuo Lines at Ichigaya, eight minutes. Ushigome-Kagurazaka on the Toei Oedo Line, nine minutes. The Imperial Palace, the National Diet, and the financial institutions of Otemachi are within direct rail reach. So is everything else that matters in this city.
