Expansive Land and Forest Property in Fujioka, Gunma
This offering comprises a main house with a large plot of land and a separate expansive mountain forest area, located in Fujioka City, Gunma Prefecture. The main residence is a single-story wooden structure with a tiled roof, built 34 years ago, offering a flexible layout that can function as a 3LDK or a 4LDK. The property includes two shuttered warehouses; one is a 9-year-old structure used as a garage, and the other is a 32-year-old building housing a laundry area and a toilet. The main house is equipped with a water-wash heated toilet, propane gas, Tokyo Electric Power supply, and a municipal water system. A septic tank is installed, and an automatic water heater was replaced six years ago. The bathroom is a fully automatic bath with a shower, heater, and dryer. Well water is also available for use. Major renovations were carried out in 2012, 2018, and 2023, including roof repairs and termite inspections. The interior and exterior have been repeatedly renovated and are in clean condition. The main house comes fully furnished with appliances and furniture, making it immediately habitable.
The land for the main house totals 2,118.52 square meters (approximately 642 tsubo) across two consolidated residential lots. The separate mountain forest comprises 87,868 square meters (about 26,627 tsubo) across six connected parcels, located about a 10-minute drive away along a prefectural road. The forest is accessed via a forest road along a stream and has no vehicle-accessible road. It is suitable for camping but requires familiarity with mountainous terrain due to steep slopes. The property is situated on the inside of the inner moat of the former Hirai Castle, which dates from the Kamakura to Muromachi periods. The area is quiet with abundant greenery and excellent southern sun exposure, offering a large garden with open views of nearby mountains. The location provides access to numerous hot springs and golf courses within a 5 to 10-minute drive. The city itself has many elderly care facilities, a large general hospital, a university, museums, parks, and the UNESCO World Heritage site of Takayama-sha. Nearby tourist destinations include Karuizawa, Mount Asama, Kusatsu Onsen, and ski resorts. The neighborhood features a convenience store about 500 meters away, with various shops a short drive further. The property is accessible from central Tokyo via the Kan-etsu Expressway, with the nearest stations being Shimmachi Station (about 15 minutes by car), Gunma-Fujioka Station (about 10 minutes), Honjo-Waseda Station (about 20 minutes), or Takasaki Station (about 30 minutes). A community bus runs along the prefectural road, with a bus stop about a 2-minute walk from the house.
