ideal neighbourhood in Tokyo for an introvert in his 30s

I have been reading through previous posts on the best neighbourhood to move to , and I have yet to find suggestion that fit my requirements. I have engaged with an agent and he has suggested the apartments in Kachidoki, Chuo City area. We went to visit a few and it feels a bit isolated from the Tokyo scene in a way but he said its ideal since I dont like the noise anyway.. now I am conflicted.

Rough information about myself: I am a man in my 30s, single and will be starting my work in Tokyo in few weeks. My office is at the Aoyama-Itchome Station. I have somewhat rough requirements for my apartment: it must be at least 1LDK, 35m squared above. My budget is from JPY180,000 to JPY210,000. I am currently living in a service apartments in Ginza provided by my company for around two months but I have been walking around to check several neighbourhoods early in the morning. So far, I have checked out the area near Sendagaya station and quite like it. It is so green and found rather unique looking apartment, the Brillia Ist Sendagaya for example.

I feel like I want to hear suggestion from people, instead of housing agent. They might have special interest in their recommendations. I dont want to use ChatGPT either since I prefer human interaction and suggestion which carries nuances and personal experiences that I dont want to miss.

Really appreciate the advice from the community!
