On the 32nd floor of Toranomon Hills Residential Tower in Minato-ku, this two bedroom, two and a half bathroom residence offers 170.97 square meters of living space plus an 18.55 square meter balcony with sweeping Tokyo views. Priced at $11.4 million, the freehold property sits in one of the city's most powerful neighborhoods, just a two minute walk from Toranomon Hills station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line. Built in January 2022 with steel framed reinforced concrete across 54 stories above ground and four below, this is modern Tokyo living at its finest. The building's full outsourced permanent management system ensures everything runs smoothly, from maintenance to security, allowing residents to focus on their lives rather than building operations.
The location puts you at the center of Tokyo's business and diplomatic district. Toranomon Hills sits surrounded by embassies, international corporations, law firms, and financial institutions that drive Japan's economy. Major business districts like Roppongi, Akasaka, and Ginza are minutes away, while the neighborhood itself continues to transform with new office towers, hotels, and luxury retail. The area balances intense business activity during weekdays with quieter evenings and weekends, creating a surprisingly peaceful residential environment despite the central location. Access to Tokyo's extensive transit network means you can reach anywhere in the city quickly.
Living in Toranomon Hills Residential Tower means access to building amenities and services that match international luxury standards. The 2022 construction ensures the latest earthquake resistant technology, energy efficient systems, and smart building features. High floor units like this 32nd floor residence provide both spectacular views and a sense of separation from the city's density below. The monthly maintenance fee of 170,280 JPY, reserve fund of 43,290 JPY, and other fees of 990 JPY are standard for Tokyo's luxury towers and cover comprehensive building services.
Japan's luxury condominium market, particularly in central Tokyo, operates under unique conditions shaped by the country's demographics and urban planning policies. Tokyo's 23 special wards contain only about 640 square kilometers but house nearly 10 million people, creating land scarcity that drives vertical development and premium pricing for well located properties. Freehold ownership (as opposed to leasehold) in central Tokyo luxury towers has become increasingly valuable, with freehold units commanding 15 to 25% premiums over comparable leasehold properties due to Japan's complex land ownership history. Toranomon specifically has seen property values increase by approximately 89% since 2015, driven by massive redevelopment projects including the Toranomon Hills complex, new subway connections, and government incentives to transform the area into Tokyo's "new center." Interestingly, luxury condominium buyers in Tokyo's business districts are increasingly international, with approximately 34% of purchases above $5 million made by non Japanese buyers in 2023, up from just 12% in 2018, reflecting Japan's gradual opening to foreign investment and the yen's relative weakness making Tokyo properties attractive to overseas wealth.
