1Shibuya Penthouse Apartmentapartment- Walk-in shoe closet — A surprisingly large walk-in shoe closet, more like a whole room, far beyond what most people would need, making the creator feel 'inadequate'. It's a testament to the apartment's scale.
- Living room with city views · ¥2,500,000/month — An insane living room with three different angles of Shibuya, Tokyo Tower, and Roppongi Hills. The echo in the room gives a sense of its massive scale, offering 'unmatched views of downtown Tokyo' that are especially unbelievable at night. It even comes with built-in free Wi-Fi.
- Personal garbage storage room — A personal garbage storage room, a luxury feature where the cleaning staff will periodically empty it for you, eliminating the need to take trash downstairs like in a normal Japanese apartment.
- Massive bathtub next to bedroom — A massive bathtub, described as the biggest the creator has ever seen in a Japanese apartment, comparable to a 'Bellagio-sized jacuzzi'. It can fit two or three people and offers views of Tokyo Tower from the tub.
- Spacious bedroom with tatami-like carpet — A massive bedroom by Japanese standards, featuring carpet made from the same material as tatami, giving it a unique rough feel underfoot. The ideal spot for the bed would overlook a private balcony.
- Bedroom balcony — One of three balconies in the apartment, this 'secret balcony' is located in the bedroom, perfect for slipping off to enjoy a drink, smoke, and views of Tokyo Tower before rolling into a king-sized bed.
- Walk-in clothes closet — An incredibly large walk-in closet, so big it's about the size of a normal Japanese apartment kitchen, or even large enough to fit another bedroom if desired.
- Rooftop jacuzzi — A massive rooftop jacuzzi, capable of fitting five or six people, offering incredible views. It's described as 'way better' than the outdoor garden in a previous $20,000 apartment, being easier to use and nicely trimmed with herbs like aloe vera and rosemary. This is the main reason the $25,000 price tag is justified.
- Rooftop bathroom with cavernous tub — A second bathroom located on the rooftop, featuring a 'cavernous' and deep tub that lights up. This bathroom is part of the unique second living room and jacuzzi floor, designed with parties in mind.
- Rooftop terrace — One of the nicest rooftop terraces in Tokyo, impressive not only for its size (65 square meters or 700+ square feet) but also for its unbelievable, unobstructed views. It stretches around the entire apartment, offering space for seating for 20 people and even a morning jog. It's perfect for enjoying a rosemary gin and tonic from the fresh herbs grown there.
