Sangen Jaya, a popular old neighborhood in Setagaya lined with hidden, well-known shops.

 

Sangen Jaya often appears on ‘Places People Want to Live’ rankings. I am from the countryside so I wasn’t very familiar with the area, however walking into random bars and the like and asking the owners about things to do and places to go in Tokyo, the name ‘Sangen Jaya’ came up a lot.

One of the appeals of Sangen Jaya is easy access. If you take the Tokyu Den-en-toshi line it is two stations from Shibuya by local train, or only one station if you take the express and the last train is at 00:42 so even if you stay out late with your friends in Shibuya there is a sense of reassurance that you can catch the train home.
 
Furthermore, the area around the train station is lined with shops and commercial facilities so it is quite livable which is another appeal. The interesting thing is, however, that the biggest appeal of this neighborhood is the shopping district crowded with a variety of different shops and bars along the streets. It is a chaotic atmosphere of the residential area and entertainment district rolled into one, however that in turn has a marked impact on the rows and rows of shops and fascinates those who keep coming back.

This time we are introducing share house Classico Sangen Jaya, a 3-storey building located in a quiet residential area 12 minutes walk from Sangen Jaya station on the Tokyu Den-en-toshi line. A small Japanese garden decorates the entrance and a roofed garage creates free space.

The interior has been renovated like new from a family home into a gorgeous space in line with the owner’s desire of ‘building a place he would want to live in himself’. Constructed from earthquake-resistant reinforced concrete, the quality and arrangement of the living room completes an interior with a high-class ambiance.

 Let’s have a look inside the house.

While the share house Classico Sangen Jaya is fascinating itself, nearby French and Italian restaurants are also part of the appeal. Gathering around the dinner table with everyone is fun, but every now and then sharing extraordinary moments with sharemates and friends is also enjoyable.
