Inside a $5.5 Million Tokyo House With a Graveyard View 

Yes, I know, I should have uploaded it on Halloween. Whaddayagonnado

I feel like whoever was deciding the positions for the windows was trolling the original owners.

I kinda like how the cemetary is right next to the house. Tokyo is a huge and crowded city. It's nice to have a little bit of space out back where you can actually see more than a few m.

There is a always good reason why a house been on the market for soooo long.

This is the backrooms of houses! All white walls, random rooms to nowhere, TONS of storage, only one bedroom (which is one of the smallest rooms in the house?) It's such a weird setup! There's so much I dislike about it but the views of the cemetery can't be beat 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Nothing like taking a bath while watching people visit their family tombstone

Am I the only one who thinks the graveyard view is a plus?

No noise, no stuff blocking view. It seems like a win tbh and if you're a believer of paranormal stuff just make a nice shrine for the death to have peace and rest.

I like the idea of chilling with a bunch of spirits while talking a bath.

Nice to see these older videos getting a new home on the Tokyo Portfolio channel

I would appreciate a home overlooking the Aoyama cemetery… so many sakura trees there that it resembles a park.

Truly a view to die for

Such a nice door! I also may be in a small minority that would love to live next to a graveyard. I think they're beautiful in their own way, and typically peaceful.

Alex, please make your videos more frequent... We love them!!!

That door was impressive most impressive.

Loving these uploads man! I love being able to see awesome houses in Japan, and I'd love to see another stream like you did with Connor.

less than a minute in and the mention of Blue Note Tokyo being in the neighborhood sold me!!

Unless somone is a necromancer that needs a graveyard to summon the horde of the undead real fast in a pinch.. I think that house will be a hard to sell. That toilet room was hilarious x'D

Wow! That’s a nice door!

The house is amazing, but the view gives me goosebumps.

This was one of my favorite videos on Blackship! So glad it's back!!!

All the storage solutions in that home are amazing. Just the constant views of the graves would probably be unsettling for most people.

Damn, that is a nice door! Great tour as always Alex!

The cemetery next to the house and visible pretty much from every important room (can be positive for some and negative for some) but other things about this house don't make sense, such as a big house and only one bedroom initially? Copious amount of storage (this is the first case in my life when I would say there is too much storage) some storage doesn't make sense like there is a second small kitchen with a lot of storage and possible room for a bedroom next door but it was initially a storage why not make it a separate space for Airbnb or for friends living space???? there is a 4 burner electric plate but the vent is so big it would fit 2 like that (excuse but if it is for 5 million why not make 2 electric plates it would allow for fantastic cooking shows, the kitchen has so much storage but there isn't even full-size washer, there are so many cupboards but not a microwave??? That kitchen is a monstrosity (tho the sink is amazing) master bathroom is pretty nice but the master bedroom is so small (cementary view in the bedroom is really weird, why would you want to look at the cementary when making babies (tho its japan they don't make them so I guess designer haven't thought about that) I heard that the cemetery is full of sakura and blooms beautifully so I can understand why there is a view on it in the bathroom. THAT TOILET WITH THE STREET VIEW IS JUST A BAD or A PERVY DESIGN. The walls are full of stains and scratches and the stairs had been designed so badly that the previous owner had to install mats to walk on them safely, (but the designer didn't think anyone would use stairs bc there is an elevator I can bet) what is this house??? oh, there is a third kitchen a screening room that is not in main living room when it is so big it can fit copious amounts of sofas and TVs????? truthfully this house doesn't cost 5.5 million bc all the work needed to be done would easily amount to 6 or even 7 million. This house is not worth its price no matter how costly Tokyo is or how big and good located it is, it has so many flaws and is literally a menace. This house is a monster. Thanks for reading poor's girl rant.

I do like the door! I like the storage much more though. I love storage, especially the room with no windows that's on the cool side. That could be really useful.

Love your videos Alex!

i love that door!

Thanks Alex for another interesting property reveal!

love the view

4:33 That is one of the doors I have ever seen Awesome tour again as always Alex!

I love this house, and I love the area. Imagine the view during cherry blossom season! I have a lot of clothes and stuff, so the more storage there is the better. If I was rich I'd buy it.

I still remember a modern house you showed to us, which had a secret - another old house inside of it. And now this one with the graveyard :D Japan is so full of surprises! Some goth person should buy this house and repaint it in dark colours ^.^ Bathroom with such view! I never saw anything like that, truly extra unique.

That is one awesome door- I love the way it both opens AND closes. House is cool too, I guess.

Nice door, a really nice door!

I like this place, it's very minimalistic and the storage style is very japanese. The only downside is where it's placed, it feels like people can see in your house, wouldn't be able to relax. Seems like the kinda house to temporarily own while focusing on your work.

That was indeed a nice door!

Love the door

I love this. cemeteries make good neighbors, too. Was there a garage for that $$?

That's a nice door!

you doing a grate job,

4:20 now that's a view... for the people from the outside

sheesh the transitions, my guy be flexing

Nice another reupload, thanks alex.

When he came out of the fridge location I lost it LOL. Almost like a live transition on a set

I swear you have already showed us this house I exactly remember the graveyard

That's a view to die for

I love the door...

We LIVE for that Door...

I'd buy it just for the proximity to the graveyard! That view never gets old😊 it's huge, i could play hide and seek with myself😂

4:33 That is _such a nice door._

I wouldn't mind having a cemetery next door. I used to have a rail road track near my house so the silence would be much preferred. Unfortunately I don't have enough to afford that house; it's a possible goal to aim for. Side Note: I've heard there are some nice homes in Kawasaki, which is a rather cheap area of Greater Tokyo to live in. Might be a good place to cover in future.

You wont be lonely living in this house for sure! 😄

¥618,000,000 translates to 4.2 million USD

Yes, the neighborhood is very quiet. 🙂

I LOVE DOOR

That was a nice door

I feel like you were channeling your inner crazy with this one for some reason. Maybe it was the coat?

As soon as I saw the headline in the thumbnail, I knew where this house would be located. I've had some nice, peaceful walks in Aoyama Cemetery.

Okay I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. I'm a bit of a metalhead/goth and love the cemetery view. If you are going to live in one of the most densely populated places on earth, having a few thousand of your neighbors being corpses does up the peace/quiet factor. Plus that looks like a fun place to get in a quick 2-3km run. Yeah first couple floors are WTF in their layout and need some love, but the layout in the living room/kitchen/master bedroom are AWESOME!!! Not my first choice in tile or kitchen cabinets but I could live with what's there. Sand down those hardwood floors and put a natural oak(not pickled!!!) finish on them, would really update the space from those awful dark 2000's era floors.

I like the door.

I love that coat

Nice house

I did like that door.

LMAO the Bathroom window is a far worse view than the Graveyard view 🤣🤣🤣

I never thought I’d see a place with too much storage but this may be the one 😂

Cool, at least the neighbours aren't too noisy. 👍

Nice door

thats a nice door

I love your dry sense of humour :)

That graveyard kinda looks like a miniature city from above

How did you do the insanely nice transition at 3:09? Nice job w/ the video as usual! :)

I love the sponge pocket so much. I think that means I’m getting old when the most exciting thing I have seen lately is a sponge pocket on a sink lol

That is a nice door

That door is definitely one of the doors of all time.

A unique house no doubt, quiet neighbours and great location. One bedroom only is a bit odd. With all the floorspace available, a couple of guest bedrooms wood not go astray. I assume for $5.5 million there is a garage. Great video by way,

When I was younger I would have loved the all white aesthetic but now that I'm in my 30's I think I prefer a bit of colour

nice

I think I would use the basement bathroom 👍. Not used to 👋👋 as people walk past 🤣🤣

that's a nice door

"love the sound of mourning in the morning" 😂

Well... At least the neighbors are not noisy 😉. P.s. nice door 😁

I can't get over the fact that the bathroom has a view of the cemetery xD.

First housetour i've seen done in bathrobe and slippers.

nice door

I dunno, I think if I had 5.5 million simoleons to throw around, I’d get a $1.5 million place and have $4 mil to play around with.

I don’t usually comment - but I have to admit that’s a fine door

It honestly looks like a bit of a tough sell but it definitely has some interesting quirks going for it

Nice door.

Nice...very nice, gives me an idea for New Orleans! It's a perfect fixer upper, but the limited number of bedrooms means that it is hard to put more than $500k into it after paying $5.5 for it. The kitchen is great, maybe just new countertops, but I wouldn't live there indefinitly, so when I no longer need a residence in Tokyo, I need to be able to sell it for a profit. Would require changing some of the floor plan! I think it would be worth it if a 3 bed 2 bath home remodeled gets $7.5. It's not necessarily making money since I've enjoyed the utilitarian value of living and working from there, but I can't afford to lose money!

It’s a pretty good door

I like all the space. Everything seems so small in Japan. This home is huge but it seems very cold and industrial. Of course furniture and art would make a difference. The worst thing about this place isn’t the cemetery. It’s all the white on white with more white. I’d have to have an employee that wipe walls. Wipe glass and generally dust everything over and over every day. My OCD couldn’t take it. 😊

wow its on the market again? i still remember when housingjapan first listed it

memento mori... At least the neighbors are quiet😂

Before you move in, read "The Graveyard Apartment" by Mariko Koike :D ;-)

Big by comparison of what we’ve seen from you previously, just in need of a decent interior designer 😊

Gotta rent out all the storage space as a Luxury Urn by-cemetery

I like the retouched Japanese caption 日本語が上手になったので、使えるときに使いたい。I actually like this property, I still think its very much a business property for a art/media studios or renovation into an Esports house or something techy (completely bias) I recently connected with a business owner who registered 1 of his houses as a business property for his wife's cooking LLC, it looked like this house but in Roppongi with a 4 car garage soo he could store his toys.

That sure was a nice door.

Apart cemetery it looks really nice,it might be not bad to live or so

Have I seen this video before or am I having déjà vu?
