Inside a $3,000,000 LUXURY Tokyo Apartment | Japanese Apartment Tour 

The debate of the century -- carpet or no carpet?

I understand that you have to do luxury places because of views and make it worth it to hire a filming crew, But I think it would be neat if you did a one off video of other levels of home, from poor to high end middle class.

I was honestly JUST thinking about how much I wanted a new Tokyo Portfolio video and I'm so glad this is here now.

Every video Of yours I watch. I’m like “This is my favorite place. “.

I hope your channel explodes, bro. Great chemistry, humorous, stunning camera work. More of this!!

Very nice place. You'd think for three million though with 3 bedrooms there'd at least be a second half bath if not a full second bathroom. If you use all that space for a large family, things are going to get awful crowded in the mornings lol

Out of all the apartments I've seen this is probably the most meh I have been...especially for 3 mil. It just doesn't feel like anything crazy special. The 1.3mil custom one is a lot more cosy and fits the price a lot more...in my opinion at least :)

I'm either going to be moving to Japan or purchasing a vacation home in the next 2-3 years. I'll definitely be coming to you when I do.

Highlight of my day, love your content.

I really like the decor and layout of this apartment!

I love all the ambient lighting in this place

Love these videos! Big up!!

the main driver for the price is obviously the location here, probably overpriced too. unless $3M is a small percentage of your total portfolio, I don't think there is anything that justifies purchasing this apartment. I don't know the monthly rent but it could be profitable as a luxe airbnb for high net worth people

Me encantan estos videos, ojalá blackship vuelva también es muy bueno

The living, dining & kitchen area is my favorite

Thank You for this video.

Dynamic entrance and smooth transition to the seated position. High quality bathing.

A day is well spent if it involves Alex and his videos so today is a good day...

That place looks amazing, bru

I loved your videos when I saw them on Abroad in Japan. I'm glad to see more videos on your own channel. like and subscribe. i look forward to seeing more! your presentation is great!

What I have noticed about japanese apartments is storage is a sign of wealth, micro apartments = no storage at all for anything not even clothing or food really. rich fancy apartments = storage, storage and more storage then anyone could ever feasibly need.

mus be a really nice area. great video 2x👍

Nice video.

It's crazy how expensive rent is in Japan. 160k yen gets me a 3 bedroom house 20 minutes from the city. In Tokyo that would get you a 1 bedroom apartment.

Very nice place

The place looks fantastic, although the wood color isn't my favorite I still think it's quite appealing. The only thing that I don't understand is the carpets. I don't know what it's like in Japan, but where I'm from, having carpets is the opposite of luxury.

Does the apartment come with those socks? I would guess that they would be extra... as $3,000,000 doesn't seem enough.

Side note, your little jokes are perfect, they ground you and show you get it lol. Cinnamon stick martini's... nice. Well produced video also. Nice.

Such a dreamy place 💭 the color palette of the home is definitely my favorite!!! Side note: I love the socks

So much shoe storage. It's amazing how many of these videos show of 2-3 shoe storage closets.

If I’m paying this much I really want at least two bathrooms if not 2 1/2.

mmm, cinnamon sticks and a martini. the breakfast of champions!

Could you please do a tour into the $6,000 / night Roppongi Hills Residence D - #1402 ? Lived there for 8 years. Really enjoyed the layout. Beautifully made.

Amazing there in Japan and I wish to do such reviews if I could and in Japan

Love this channel! Not planning to buy anything in Japan, but I came here through Abroad in Japan and somehow I got stuck 😆the art of presentation is really professional and entertaining. There’s one thing however that I don’t understand: Alex is often talking about washing machine having a warm water supply as a sign of luxury. Why does a washing machine need warm water? In Germany we also have only 1 water intake for the machine, and this is cold water. A modern washing machine is heating the water during the washing process, to the exact temperature. Why should it have a warm water faucet?..

i wonder since the Nishiazabu area was know for samurais. I wonder if they have old beautiful samurai houses? This house looks awesome but i dont like how close the hallway walls feel and how it almost has that office kind of look or hotel. It might be just me but i think with 3 million i would had done so much more :)

tour the four seasons imperial suite

One toilet? 3 mill and one toilet? Everything is lovely except that, especially given the space available, I'd gladly lose three square meters of lounge for a second toilet. And no oven? At all? This video is lovely and so is the style, but you can see better features in an apartment 1/10th the price, even if it's smaller.

As i understand it, the depreciation of property in japan is massiv but the land keeps the value pretty good. So if i buy an Apartment get i a part of the land the building is build on?

A water re heated in a bath?! Amazing! I'd never leave...

Alex, I love your socks. Business up top, party on the feet.

Woo... All I can say about this one is that the living room is painfully bright xD

It's interesting that they kit out the Masters bedroom and bathrooms, but not that first or second bedroom.

what type of aircon is that? the one in the 1st bedroom

298mln yen translates to 2,2 mln usd since yen is weaker recently

Guess the 90's have come back in style, bleh. Place reminds me of my one friend's pretentious McMansion growing up, had white carpets, white/off white furniture, lots of gold and silver shiny crap everywhere, looked almost exactly like this place. We never hung out on the first floor of that house, it was a look, don't touch or sit on the couches type of place. Always hung out in the rec room with the pool table and big tv that his dad decorated with dark carpets/green walls, felt like a pub.

I'll be honest - When you were showing us the shoe storage then immediately said "You can fit plenty of people in here" I got REALLY confused and a bit worried.

I heard that the big sink is to clean big fish. IDK if it's true, but I don't see a problem with a big sink I think it's great, actually.

How about a high-end or even 'typical' HANDICAPPED apartment? Fully wheelchair accessible? The bathrooms especially have me curious. Thank you,

❤❤❤

Where is the fridge supposed to go?

Why would you be going to work in the morning for a 7pm bath to be set? I feel you either meant to say 7am, or for the bath to be ready after work for 7pm l?

Tem garagem nesse prédio?

I have to wonder if most homes in Japan use gas stoves or electric.

I know this building

Nice, but is there no sunblind at the balcony? Tokio is to expensive. Aren't there any high end suits or houses around Tokio to a normal price?

I think I had seen this tour from you before.🤔

What is this secret video I have found myself at, only 11 views, what a nice treat lol

4:50 for what are those "things" on wall on top of bathtub?

how much is maintainence and tax/

I like how he shows these apartments that look like pretty normal apartments in other western places , but in japan this is what they call extra. Like that balcony is nothing impressive by western standards

You suppose to take off your shoes when your inside the house sir❤❤❤

Is this place for sale ? Is that why all the clothes are there? Or is it just to make it more homely to entice the new buyer ? Love your videos by the way 😁also would love to see some weird and quirky apartments if that's possible

the kitchen confuses me - I like galley kitchens but it confuses me that a whole wall behind kitchen is empty - waste of space but these people are probably rich and eat out a lot

Using gas for cooking is just the best,as a chef i find that induction cooking is not that great,especially when you want to prepare a meal in your wok,wich you can't move around and the heat won't catch on really well,but in the country wher ei live currently they got rid of ALL gas cooking and only induction is availble.

No kitchen storage?

is this a co-op or is this an apartment that you actually own outright?

Do the buildings in Japan have what we call HOAs ?

where is the refrigerator?

I was just wondering how I should spend 3 mil. Decisions decisions. But for that, I could have two brand new Ferraris. It's not easy deciding how to spend money.

The Tony Takitani home, for those who are in the know

To me, a nice bachelor pad. The two "bedrooms" would be used as office and storage and the living area is full of light but smallish. The monthly expenses are insane - I wonder whether utilities are included - and they would still be insane.

This guy making videos that are practically informative for less than 0.1% of the population - ultra-rich people looking for high-end Japanese real estate offers on RU-vid.

The UK really ought to have developed and enforced laws regarding wealthy foreigners buying property in London and the home counties as they've not only contributed to artificially and radically inflating property prices and priced UK residents out, but let's call a spade a spade too: along with art, they've used property to launder their wealth. Too many properties lie vacant for most of the year as its foreign owners spend time abroad. If buying property as a foreigner in Japan involves getting tangled in headache-inducing, deeply frustrating bureaucratic process-- or being outright rejected from the starting line-- then I'm all for it. I'd be heartbroken to start seeing Japan crumbling and decaying the way the UK continues to due to all kinds of laws and social order completely falling apart over here. Too much entitlement, too much 'me-me-me, I want-I want-I want' and waaaaay too much solipsistic, hubristic so-called 'activism'.

I want to see a place with an actual oven and both a washer and dryer. Find it, Alex. *Find it*.

I realize that housing in Japan and the US are different. Compared to a normal apartment in Japan, this amount of space is massive. I didn't notice a refrigerator in the kitchen which I thought was a bit odd. I get this is a ritzy neighborhood and the views are amazing, but at 3M and additional grand a month? Yeah...it would be a pass for me.

You commented on a large sink, why would you want a small one? Also many asian households prefer to handwash dishes so dishwashers isnt a musthave unlike many western households where even tiny houses have dishwashers

Looks beautiful but definetely not the best use of space. One of the 2 walk in wardrobes in the master bedroom couldve easily been an ensuite to free up traffic from the single toilet in the apartment. Also not building the stove against the back wall of the kitchen has led to a waste of space behind it - all that dead space couldve been used for the stove/oven/range hood/fridge plus some cabinet space for pots/pans and dishes. The current benchtop couldve been used as an island with the sink/dishwasher and additional storage. The apartment on its own definetely isnt worth $3mil. Guess thats how the saying goes: Location, location, location...

Maybe I'm just used to seeing it in pretty much every unit shown, but it's getting to me that there is no fridge in that kitchen.

Tokyo prices are almost like LA, Beverly Hills prices...

Why do apartments in Japan have only 1 toilet. this expensive house with 3 bedrooms but just 1 communal toilet.

Am I blind or is there no entrance to the bath on the building plan?

maintenance fees, building manager, annual taxes etc.

3 million and they still managed to not put any kitchen storage 💀

I actually toured this apartment irl before and it's very unimpressive. It's been on the market for months and it's way overpriced. It's small, it doesn't have a good view, and it should be a stonethrow away from the train station but it's not.

Why isn’t there any oven on Japanese house ?

what?! this 3M ?! are you sure its not 300k instead? Who in full mind would buy this?! :O

So I guess they don’t do full size fridge or stoves in Japan. Interesting. 🤔

am i the only one wondering where you would put any food in this apartment? there is no fridge or cupboards...

It's very Beige for $3 million.

3mil usd for 1k square feet? damn bro

The question is... was cost given for location? i don't think the apartment worth of this price!! Bedrooms are too small, i mean.. you can buy whole house in LA for only 2 million!

Wait, did I just miss it or is there no refrigerator?

Where's the refrigerator?

2:58 The owner is trying to say that the wife own the apartment and the husband is only allowed a small corner.

Holy moly, 3 mil just to be able to "rent" at 1k per month? I didn't even see any mention of a fridge????

Kitchen and living room area are too busy with crap items, otherwise not bad, so long as you can remove most of the filler items around to have some space. Too expensive for what it is though

Cool apartment, but the view is kinda dull imo.

Living, kitchen and 'dining' area is way too cramped. No shelves or kitchen storage, no room for a fridge. For 3M, you'd expect more

Love the video and the apartment, my problem is always with one thing...the socks the dude is wearing. May I say that is a bit cringe? Just saying
