Vacant Land with Mount Asama Views in Karuizawa's Nagakura District
This 365.93 square meter (approximately 110.69 tsubo) plot of vacant land is situated in the desirable Nagakura district of Karuizawa, a renowned resort town in Nagano Prefecture. The property is a flat, rectangular lot designated as residential land and farmland, offering a prime opportunity to build a custom vacation home. It is conveniently located within a 10-minute walk (approximately 750 meters) from the Shinano-Oiwake Station on the Shinano Railway line, providing excellent access.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for potential buyers. The property's electricity is supplied by Chubu Electric Power Co. Importantly, the sale of this land is based on its registered (公簿) area. This means there will be no price adjustment or settlement, regardless of any increase or decrease found in an actual measured survey of the land. Additionally, a one-time, lump-sum sewerage beneficiary contribution fee of 600 yen per square meter applies to the property.
The land is subject to specific building regulations, including a floor area ratio of 200%, a building coverage ratio of 60%, and height restrictions limiting construction to two stories or 10 meters. Setback requirements mandate buildings be at least 2.0 meters from the road boundary and 1.0 meters from neighboring property lines. The site is also within a designated area for buried cultural properties, requiring notification to authorities at least 60 days prior to any construction work. The property is sold as vacant land in its current condition.
The area offers excellent daily convenience, with a convenience store just a 6-minute walk away and a large supermarket, Tsuruya Karuizawa store, reachable by car in about 8 minutes. A key feature of this property is the stunning view of Mount Asama, an active volcano and iconic symbol of the region, visible from the northwestern part of the plot. Karuizawa is famed not only for its cool summer climate and outdoor activities but also as the location of the historic Karuizawa St. Paul's Catholic Church, a popular wedding and tourist destination built in 1935.
