Spacious 6LDK Vacation Home in Nasu's Heiwadai Resort Area
This detached vacation home, located within the peaceful Heiwadai resort area of Nasu, offers a generous 6LDK layout with one Japanese-style room and five Western-style rooms, providing ample space for family and friends. Built in September 2002, this two-story wooden structure sits on a flat, 462-square-meter plot at an elevation of approximately 514 meters, ensuring cool summers and scenic surroundings. The property is conveniently situated about 8.2 km (a 13-minute drive) from the Nasu Interchange on the Tohoku Expressway and about 17.1 km (a 26-minute drive) from JR Tohoku Shinkansen's Nasushiobara Station, making it accessible for both short getaways and longer stays.
Critical property details from the agent notes have been translated and incorporated. The equipment includes electricity from Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). Important remarks clarify that the calculation of the private road area (40 sqm, for which there is a separate burden) is stated as an approximate area based on cadastral survey maps. Furthermore, there is a note regarding water overage charges: if water usage exceeds 30 cubic meters over a 6-month period, an additional fee of 440 yen (tax included) per cubic meter will apply. Additionally, hot spring connection is possible, but the construction cost for bringing in the hot spring requires a separate estimate.
The property features a total floor area of 172.24 sqm, a car parking space for one vehicle, and uses LP gas for individual heating and hot water. It's important to note for future planning that the existing building does not comply with the setback regulation (2.5 meters from the neighboring boundary line), meaning a rebuild could not be constructed in the same location. The monthly running costs for vacation use, including common area fees, are approximately 9,766 yen, with additional costs for hot spring rights and connection if desired.
The Nasu area is a renowned highland resort region in Tochigi Prefecture, famous for its fresh dairy products, picturesque ranchlands, and outdoor activities. An interesting local fact is that the area is home to several historic onsens (hot springs) that have been enjoyed for centuries due to the volcanic activity of Mount Nasu. The closest major tourist attraction is the stunning Nasu Shiobara area, known for its beautiful autumn foliage, hiking trails, and the iconic Nasu Rindō Lake, a popular spot for relaxation and photography.
