History
Mutsumi Station opened on 27 December 1923 on the Hokusō Railway Funabashi Line, in what is now Matsudo, Chiba. The railway changed names to Sōbu Railway on 22 November 1929. On 1 March 1944 Tōbu Railway absorbed Sōbu under Japan's wartime transport-consolidation law, bringing the station into the Tōbu network. On 16 April 1948 the Funabashi Line was merged into the Tōbu Noda Line. The name 'Mutsumi' is the sixth in a numbered series of place names assigned during the early-Meiji Koganemaki land-reclamation programme. Station numbering was introduced on 17 March 2012, with Mutsumi designated TD-29. The 14 March 2020 revision withdrew terminating services and ended use of platform 3.

Notes
Mutsumi is the only Tōbu Railway station located in Matsudo City, even though it sits in the heart of a residential district whose name derives from being the sixth (六) reclaimed parcel of the Koganemaki land programme.
