Exclusive Listing · Japan
A large house with loft and outbuilding on nearly 1,500 square metres in a highland resort town, 22 minutes on foot from the Shinkansen.
Karuizawa is a highland resort town in Nagano, long associated with woodland and summer retreats, and the Shinkansen puts it within reach of the Tokyo region. This house is a 22-minute walk from the station and has about 220 square metres of floor area on a plot of about 1,477 square metres. It has two floors and a loft, a 21 jo living room, a study, two wooden decks and a separate four-compartment storage building. Land right, structure, year built and zoning are not stated and need confirming. It suits a buyer seeking a spacious second home with generous storage.
Why This Opportunity
The plot is large for a house of 219.87 square metres, so the building sits with open ground around it.
The Shinkansen station is 22 minutes on foot, so the house does not depend on a car for the trip to the station.
The upper floor has a 14.3 jo bedroom, a 13.85 jo study and an 8.15 jo Western-style room, with a 21 jo living room below.
The loft adds a further 23 jo of space above the two floors, useful for storage or occasional use.
Two wooden decks give outdoor sitting areas on the plot, in a town known for its woodland setting.
The outbuilding has four compartments with electric and manual shutters, in addition to storage inside the house.
