Vast Land Adjacent to a Stream Flowing into Lake Tōro in Shibecha, Hokkaido

This expansive 16,347 square meter plot of land is situated in the pristine natural environment of Shibecha Town in eastern Hokkaido. The property is located adjacent to a small stream that flows into Lake Tōro, the largest freshwater lake within the Kushiro Wetlands, offering a serene and untouched setting. The area is characterized by preserved wetlands and gentle hills dotted with pastures.

According to agent notes, the land is classified as wilderness (原野) with a flat topography. Essential utilities require installation: electricity is available, but a well must be drilled, and a joint purification septic tank is necessary. The property fronts a paved public road approximately 7.5 meters wide on its south side. It is located outside of urban planning zones. For construction on plots A and B, land filling (盛土) will be required. The agent highlights that uses other than building a residence should also be considered, making this a versatile opportunity.

Shibecha Town is renowned for its rich natural environment, nestled between two national parks—Kushiro Shitsugen National Park and Akan Mashū National Park—and the Akkeshi Kiritappu Konbu Mori Quasi-National Park. These areas are habitats for precious flora and fauna. Lake Tōro itself, with a circumference of about 18km, offers year-round recreational activities such as canoeing and fishing in summer and smelt fishing in winter. The closest major landmark is the magnificent Kushiro Shitsugen (Kushiro Wetland), Japan's largest wetland and a UNESCO Ramsar site, providing unparalleled opportunities for nature observation and eco-tourism.
