History
Kita-Narashino Station opened on 11 April 1966 as a stop on the Shin-Keisei Electric Railway in Funabashi. It became an interchange on 27 April 1996 when the Tōyō Rapid Railway Line reached the site, hosting that line's opening ceremony. Accessibility upgrades through 2007 and 2008 added lifts between the underground Tōyō platforms and street level, and the Shin-Keisei side received a new station building in March 2009 along with a pedestrian deck linking it to an adjacent commercial building. Station numbering followed in 2014. On 1 April 2025 the Shin-Keisei merger took effect, transferring the surface platforms to Keisei Electric Railway's renamed Matsudo Line and changing the station number to KS70.

Notes
The station sits inside the 2,366.8-metre Narashinodai Tunnel, much of which was built using NATM tunnelling instead of the originally planned cut-and-cover method to limit surface disturbance.
