Famille Villa Sengokuhara: A Resort Condominium in the Heart of Hakone
Famille Villa Sengokuhara is a well-established resort condominium located in the popular Sengokuhara area of Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture. This reinforced concrete, six-story building was constructed in August 1982 by Asanuma Corporation and developed by Marubeni Corporation, comprising a total of 65 units within a First Category Residential zone.
The property's facilities and equipment are clearly detailed. The utilities include electricity supplied by Tokyo Electric Power, propane gas, drinking water from the public water supply, and drainage connected to the public sewer system. Television reception is for terrestrial digital and BS broadcasts, and individual contracts for optical fiber internet are available. The building features an auto-lock security system, parking for 15 vehicles, and a bicycle parking area for 5.
A significant highlight of this condominium is its shared, on-site hot spring bath (onsen). The large communal bath uses milky-white water sourced from the famous Owakudani hot spring area, allowing residents to fully enjoy the therapeutic benefits of Hakone's renowned geothermal waters. The bath is heated and has water added for temperature control, with cleaning times scheduled. The complex also includes a coin laundry and a conversation lounge for resident use. Notably, pets are not permitted in the building.
The building has undergone several renovations to maintain its condition, including exterior wall painting in 2002, waterproofing and additional exterior work in 2003, bathroom renovations in 2004, and a major repair project as recently as January 2022. The management is fully entrusted to Com Estate Service Co., Ltd., with a resident manager on duty.
