Ultimate Relaxation Property in a Snow Country Resort Prime Location
This property is a 2LDK apartment located in a 14-story reinforced concrete building in Yuzawa Town, Minamiuonuma District, Niigata Prefecture. The building is 30 years old and offers a total floor area of 72.12 square meters. The apartment is a rare non-smoking corner unit. It underwent renovation in 2007 and is in excellent, well-maintained condition. The spacious 19.6-tatami mat living, dining, and kitchen area features large panoramic windows offering a commanding view of Mount Naeba. The layout includes two comfortable bedrooms, one Japanese-style and one Western-style, making it easy to accommodate guests.
The property's standout feature is its access to the building's extensive resort-like amenities. These include a large bathhouse with free-flowing natural hot spring (onsen), a swimming pool, a billiard room, and a restaurant. Residents can enjoy unlimited access to the onsen. Additionally, the building has a manager who handles cleaning and maintenance of the shared facilities, and even provides snow removal services in winter, a significant benefit in this heavy snowfall region. Please note a separate monthly maintenance fee of approximately 40,000 yen is required. The total purchase cost includes the 1,000,000 yen property price plus necessary expenses such as real estate acquisition tax, ownership transfer registration fees, brokerage commission, stamp duty, and other miscellaneous costs, totaling approximately 700,000 yen.
The area is renowned as a premier resort destination. Yuzawa is famous for having some of the heaviest snowfall in the world, making it a paradise for winter sports like skiing at the nearby Naeba Ski Resort. Beyond winter, the region offers stunning natural beauty throughout the seasons, from spring greenery to autumn foliage. A major landmark is Mount Naeba itself, part of the Joshinetsu Kogen National Park, offering year-round hiking and outdoor activities. The property is conveniently located just a 1-minute walk from the 'Asagai' bus stop, with a 35-minute bus ride connecting to JR Echigo-Yuzawa Station, providing access to the Joetsu Shinkansen bullet train line.
