Cedar House: A Fully Renovated Home with Private Onsen in Niseko's Royal Town
Cedar House, located in the tranquil Royal Town community of Niseko, Hokkaido, is a fully renovated property with a proven track record of stable rental income. This home offers exceptional convenience, being just a short drive from the Moiwa and Annupuri ski resorts, and features the unique luxury of a private onsen water source piped directly into the house.
The property's standout feature is its private onsen. The house is directly connected to a natural hot spring source, with dedicated piping bringing the therapeutic waters indoors for a genuine spa experience at home. For winter sports enthusiasts, the location is ideal, with the Moiwa and Annupuri ski areas only a 2-3 minute drive away, providing easy access for skiing, hiking, and backcountry snow activities.
The recent comprehensive renovation has equipped the home with a modern kitchen, a practical genkan (entryway) with storage for ski gear, and an open-plan living and dining area designed for both comfort and functionality. The basement level features a home theater with a 120-inch screen, perfect for private movie nights during the snowy season. Parking includes one enclosed garage space, with the potential to clear up to four additional outdoor parking spots in winter.
As a successful accommodation facility for many years, Cedar House boasts a stable rental income history, making it a compelling investment opportunity. The design maximizes natural light through windows and skylights, offering views of the surrounding forest and partial views of Mount Moiwa across the seasons.
The area surrounding Niseko is renowned for its world-class powder snow, attracting skiers and snowboarders from across the globe. A fascinating local fact is that the volcanic activity that created the region's iconic mountains also feeds the numerous natural hot springs, like the one serving this property. The closest major landmark is the majestic Mount Yotei, often called "Ezo Fuji" for its resemblance to Mount Fuji, which dominates the skyline and offers spectacular hiking in the warmer months.
