The station consists of two elevated opposed side platforms serving two platforms. The platforms are connected via an underpass to the station building.
The station opened on 30 December 1916, initially named simply Funabashi Station (船橋駅).[1] This was renamed Keisei Funabashi from 18 November 1931.[1] The station was elevated from November 2006.[1] From 2006, the station became a stop on the Skyliner limited express train service. When the Skyliner moved to the Narita Sky Access Line in July 2010, Keisei Funabashi became a stop on the replacement Cityliner service between Ueno and Narita Airport (later truncated to Keisei-Narita).
Since the timetable revision on 5 December 2015, the station has become a stop on the Morningliner and Eveningliner train services.[2]
Station numbering was introduced to all Keisei Line stations on 17 July 2010. Keisei Funabashi was assigned station number KS22.[3][4]
