Belle Face Iwamotocho is located in an area with excellent transport connections. There are nine different stations on five different lines within easy access, including Kodemmacho Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line and Bakurocho Station on the JR Sobu Line both four minutes away on foot. It has an environment conducive to living, with many facilities such as supermarkets, convenient stores, and restaurant in the vicinity. Situated in a corner lot facing southeast which offers high freedom in design, all 29 units are airy and bright.
The three premium units on the ninth floor realize residential spaces responding to changes in lifestyles, including working from home, that allow time to be spent comfortably. Besides a folding table installed on the wall of one unit, they also have other features such as “nageshi” wall rails that are popular in recent years as a visible form of storage. In addition, there are also units with roof balconies on the topmost floor.

ORIX Real Estate will continue to actively provide new facilities and unit plans tailored to diversifying lifestyles, devise attractive designs, and endeavor to create comfortable homes for its customers.

1. Features of Belle Face Iwamotocho

Comfortable living spaces are achieved through designs for storage and working from home.

(1) Folding table installed on living room wall of one premium unit
To improve convenience during time spent working from home, which has increased due to changes in lifestyles, a folding table has been installed on the living room wall. Attention has also been paid to details such as installing downlights to ensure illumination of the working area.

(2)Making storage areas visible
Based on the concept that storing is not the same as hiding, the units are equipped with storage that is both functional and fashionable. The living rooms have “nageshi” wall rails that allow things to be hung, hooked, or placed as preferred without limitations to purpose. The units’ entrances are equipped with holed boards and coat hooks with shelves for hanging coats and small items such as keys, while washrooms are equipped with open shelves.

(4)Magnetic hook on interior side of entrance door
Magnetic hooks installed on the interior side of entrance doors can be used to hang masks and hats after returning home.

(5) Improved hygiene in communal spaces
The garbage collection point doors feature attachments to lever handles at two locations that can be operated using arms or elbows. In addition, there are hygiene measures being implemented, such as the installation of ozone generators along common corridors.
