Takamatsu House Announces 'Grand Mirakuras Jiyugaoka II', the Brand's First Two-Building Project

Takamatsu House Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President: Motohiko Fujiwara; hereinafter "Takamatsu House") announces "Grand Mirakuras Jiyugaoka II," its first two-building simultaneous development project under its top-tier brand "GRAND MIRAKURAS." Amidst recent market trends such as soaring urban condominium prices and the "tower mansion graduation" phenomenon, this flagship model proposes a new standard for urban living, offering the convenience and views equivalent to a condominium while owning tangible assets in the form of land.

■Background: Soaring condominium prices lead to "tower mansion graduation," expanding demand for urban detached homes

In recent years, the housing market in the Tokyo metropolitan area has seen significant changes in the home acquisition environment, driven by rising land prices, soaring construction costs, and increasing housing loan interest rates. Urban condominium prices continue to remain high, limiting the layers of people who can afford them. Amidst this, there is a prominent movement, known as "tower mansion graduation," where residents are moving from condominium-type tower mansions to detached houses, which are tangible assets with land. Even among those who traditionally chose condominiums for their convenience, there is a growing tendency to prioritize long-term asset value, leading to an expansion in demand for detached houses in urban areas.

Responding to these market changes, Takamatsu House focuses on "condominium-like locations" within walking distance of stations, providing homes with high asset value that won't lose value even if sold in the future, in addition to convenience.

■Project: Jiyugaoka 3-chome, the Brand's First Two-Building Development

"Grand Mirakuras Jiyugaoka II," announced this time, is the brand's first two-building simultaneous development project.

By planning and developing two buildings as a single entity, the project aims not only to supply individual residences but also to create value for the entire streetscape. Furthermore, by planning the two buildings as one, a sense of unity in exterior design is achieved, and views between adjacent buildings are controlled from the design stage, ensuring high privacy even in an urban setting.

This project is located in Jiyugaoka 3-chome, Meguro-ku, a premier high-end residential area in the Jonan district, just a 7-minute walk from Jiyugaoka Station on the Tokyu Toyoko Line. Situated on high ground, it boasts a location characteristic where views extend southward from the second floor, offering a sense of openness and expansive views akin to upper-floor units in a low-rise urban residential area.

The design adopts the theme of "separation of urban and living spaces," using electric garage shutters to block urban noise such as external gazes and sounds. Furthermore, by utilizing the southern views and natural light in the living-dining-kitchen (LDK) area, it creates a living experience akin to the upper floors of a tower mansion, despite being an urban detached house.

Additionally, this project, like the first Grand Mirakuras project...
