Grand Verl Gora: Premier Hakone Resort Residence
This sophisticated two-bedroom apartment commands the 6th floor of Building B at Grand Verl Gora, one of Hakone's most distinguished resort complexes. The 88.97 square-meter residence showcases exceptional corner positioning with dual balconies totaling 10.95 square meters, oriented southeast and northwest to capture natural light and panoramic views. The living area spans approximately 21.3 tatami mats, complemented by a Japanese-style room featuring Ryukyu tatami flooring (7 mats) and a Western-style bedroom (8.9 mats).
The unit is equipped with a gas water heater, electric cooktop, and individual heating and cooling systems throughout. Amenities extend beyond the residence to encompass a 24-hour hot spring bath, outdoor hot spring facilities, sauna, heated indoor swimming pool, and seasonal tennis courts. Important operational note: Building elevators have limited floor access—Buildings A, B, and D stop only at floors 1, 2, and 5, while Building C serves floors 1 and 4.
Gora's strategic location in Hakone places this property at the intersection of natural beauty and resort culture. Positioned three minutes' walk from Hakone Tozan Cable Car's Naka-Gora Station, residents enjoy seamless access to the surrounding area. Gora Park lies within a nine-minute walk, offering manicured gardens and seasonal attractions. The property commands mountain vistas with views of Myojogadake peak from the primary balcony.
Hakone attracts over two million visitors annually, primarily drawn to Lake Ashi's scenic panoramas and the region's renowned hot spring heritage. Clear days reveal Mount Fuji's iconic silhouette, a sight that has captivated visitors for centuries and remains central to Hakone's appeal.
Constructed in 1990, the complex comprises 124 units under professional management. The 22 million yen asking price reflects the property's position as a top-floor corner unit with premium amenities. Monthly management fees total 59,430 yen. Pet ownership is permitted for dogs, cats, and rabbits under 50 centimeters in body length—one pet per unit with prior notification.
