share house in Japan, Tokyo. [interwhao] > Happiness Report > House information > DIY (Do it yourself) renovation @ Firsthouse Tobu Nerima!
Hello, I am Kato, in charge of the Firsthouse in Tobu Nerima.
Please let me report when our staff members made a full renovation for the house by ourselves!!
Purchasing tools and materials, ready for the renovation!! This is what is called, “Do it yourself” spirit!!
First, to stick a wallpaper!!
Measuring the area, cutting the wallpaper, and sticking it onto the wall… After these processes, the time for a roller!!
Gradually getting accustomed to this handwork, the speed doubled!!
Like this, our staff members try even to stick a wallpaper!!
Next, a change of the flooring.
Measuring the area, cutting the material, and sticking it onto the floor… After these processes, again, a roller!!
The same process as sticking the wallpaper!!
The slight differences are glues and tools that we used, and honestly speaking, we needed a lot of energy for the flooring because the material for it was heavy.
Especially, the corridor has a lot of curves. This is the part where we took a lot of pain.
But, we will get accustomed to this work and will complete it shortly!!
We wanted some accent on the corridor, so we put some pretty stickers on the floor.
This is much easier than changing the wallpaper and flooring.
Our newborn entrance!!
We are still on the way to the renovation, but I will try to update it^^
Anyway, I am happy that both the individual rooms and the shared space became clean!!
Please come to see our renewed house if you like it, looking at this^^
Looking forward to your inquiry!!
Renewal Open in March 20th!!
Firsthouse Haneda Otorii is close to the entrance to the world which is Haneda Intenational Terminal station with 4 min for 3 stops. Also, you can come to the house without waiting for the traffic light with only 3 min walk. 14 min for Shinagawa station, and 28 min for Higashi Ginza station.
In this nice place for a good for international job, a room in the 2nd floor is 13.8㎡, and one in the 1st floor is 12㎡. The shower room and water sink is only for women in the 2nd floor.
Firsthouse Omori is only 8 min walk from Omori station in JR Keihin Tohoku Line where it is 2 next stops from Shinagawa station. You can go to Yokohama station by train for 18 min. Therefore, it’s very easy to go not only to Tokyo direction but to Yokohama area!Supermarkets, convenience stores, and drug store are very close to the sharehouse so this environment must be convenient compared to other areas in Omori. Common spaces and some rooms have been renovated in 2017, so you may really like this sharehouse!
The size of all rooms are about 10㎡ with good sunshine!! Shower rooms and bathrooms are separated in men and women. And the entrance is electric auto-locked so the security is good!! Since it is close to the station, it is convenient to go for shopping at a supermarket, convenience stores, book stores, drug stores, cafes, and so on.
