Embodiment of Refinement, with a Cosmopolitan Vibe: Azabu Area

■Azabu-area property listings

There’s no mistaking the trove of international culture in Moto-Azabu, Minami-Azabu and the rest of Azabu area. It’s everywhere, from the rows of embassies to the international schools. The district’s popularity is deeply rooted in the “Azabu brand,” the inimitable cachet of its exclusive residential neighborhoods and luxury condominium complexes. Azabu-Juban Shopping Street, some of whose stores that have been in business since their heyday in the mid-Edo era, exudes a Japanese/Western grace, with its atmosphere of Japan in the good old days and Western-style cobblestone streets. Not far away, supermarkets can be found, so there’s no shortage of shopping options.

Commuters in Azabu area can set out from Azabu-Juban Station, which is served by two subway lines, one from each network: Tokyo Metro Namboku Line and Toei Oedo Subway Line. If you work in Ichigaya or Yotsuya office district, your morning commute using the Namboku Line consumes all of 10 minutes, with no change of trains. Take Oedo Line and key destinations such as Shinjuku and Tsukishima are just 15 minutes away. Azabu is thus conveniently located to reach spots not only in west-end Tokyo but in the east end as well.

Steps from Azabu-juban Station is the Tokyo American Club, an exclusive international club in Azabudai whose history and tradition span nearly a century. The club is lavishly appointed with event spaces, restaurants, guestrooms, a spa and fitness center, among other facilities. Azabudai Hills, which includes residences, offices, shops, a hotel, and an international school, opened in the neighborhood in the fall of 2023 and is vustling with people.
