BAUS FLATS Jiyugaoka Completed in Meguro Ward, Offering Sauna-Equipped Units Near Toritsudaigaku Station

Chuo-Nittochi Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the Chuo-Nittochi Group, has completed construction of BAUS FLATS Jiyugaoka, a rental apartment building in Nakane 1-chome, Meguro Ward. The property was completed in December 2025 and is scheduled to begin tenant move-ins in February 2026. It is located approximately a seven-minute walk from Toritsudaigaku Station on the Tokyu Toyoko Line and comprises a total of 48 residential units.

The reinforced concrete building rises 10 stories above ground, with a Gross Floor Area of approximately 603 tsubo (approx. 21,500 sq. ft.). Unit layouts range from 1DK, 1LDK, 2LDK, to 2LDK+S, with unit sizes spanning approximately 25 to 57 square meters (approx. 270 to 615 sq. ft.). An interior corridor design is adopted on all floors from the second through the tenth, enhancing both privacy and security. Two of the 2LDK+S units are equipped with Auroom Cala Glass, a cabin-style sauna by totonoü Japan, marking the first time an in-unit sauna has been introduced within the company’s BAUS brand portfolio.

The Chuo-Nittochi Group continues to expand its residential leasing business, developing not only urban rental apartments but also student housing, fee-based senior residences, and serviced housing for the elderly. BAUS FLATS Jiyugaoka is designed around the Nordic architectural concept of “hygge,” featuring an earth-tone exterior and large window openings that maximize natural light. The property has obtained ZEH-M Oriented certification and is expected to reduce primary energy consumption by approximately 26%.

According to an editorial survey based on estie Residential Research, asking rents for relatively new rental apartments (completed in 2020 or later, 25–50 sq. m.) within a 10-minute walk of Toritsudaigaku Station were trending in the JPY 17,000-per-tsubo range as of January 2026. This represents a steady increase from around JPY 15,000 per tsubo in early 2020, indicating continued solid rental demand in the area.
