TOKYO, June 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lead Real Estate Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq: LRE) (“LRE” or the “Company”), a Japanese real estate developer of luxury residential properties and operator of the ENT TERRACE brand of extended-stay hotels, has opened ENT TERRACE GAKUGEIDAIGAKU PREMIUM, located in Takaban, Meguro, Tokyo. The property completed construction on March 31, 2026, and scheduled to open at the end of this month.
The hotel is a five-story building comprising four guest suites with one per floor. Each suite ranges from approximately 60 to 80 square meters — significantly larger than the typical Tokyo hotels— and has been designed for extended-stay guests seeking space, privacy, and a residential quality of experience. Architectural design was led by MAE Architect Inc. (Chofu, Tokyo) and construction was carried out by Saiko Kensetsu Co., Ltd. (Adachi, Tokyo). Operations are managed by LRE Management Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Lead Real Estate.
The property is a three-minute walk from Gakugei-Daigaku Station on the Tokyu Toyoko Line, providing direct access to Shibuya in approximately 10 minutes and Yokohama in approximately 30 minutes. Through direct connections with the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line, guests can also reach Shinjuku-sanchome and Ikebukuro without transferring.
A Neighborhood on the Rise
In 2024, Gakugeidaigaku was the only neighborhood in Japan named to Time Out’s annual ranking of the world’s coolest neighborhoods, placing 15th globally. Its local shopping street, independent cafés, and proximity to Komazawa Olympic Park make it well suited to the kind of extended stay that benefits from a quieter residential base with easy access to central Tokyo.
ENT TERRACE GAKUGEIDAIGAKU PREMIUM has been designed for international travelers on extended stays who want convenient access to Tokyo’s major destinations while experiencing the city’s everyday neighborhood life.
“Our goal is to accurately understand the characteristics and needs of our clients, aiming to create a more comfortable and secure living environment,” said Eiji Nagahara, President and CEO of Lead Real Estate Co., Ltd. “ENT TERRACE GAKUGEIDAIGAKU PREMIUM reflects that commitment — a property designed for guests who want to experience Tokyo as a resident, not just as a visitor.”
