Charming Modern Home in the Kiyosato Forest Villa Area
This property is a residential home located within "Kiyosato no Mori," a leasehold land development project by Yamanashi Prefecture. Situated in the northernmost, higher elevation section of the villa district, it offers the refreshing climate of a highland region. The home faces the main road within the villa area, ensuring easy access. Built in 2019, the house stands on a spacious 340-tsubo (approx. 1,126 sqm) plot.
The design features a large roof, warm-toned plastered exterior walls, and wood accents around the windows, creating a look that blends naturally with the surroundings. The interior is in excellent condition. The first-floor living room is a large, open space with a high ceiling. The contrast between the white wallpaper and the dark brown wood of the floors, beams, and pillars is aesthetically pleasing. The home has high insulation, ensuring warmth during winter.
The garden is planted with deciduous trees spaced apart, allowing residents to enjoy the changing seasons. In winter, when the leaves fall, the garden can attract wild birds. According to the agent's notes, the land is leasehold. The annual leasehold fee is 164,667 yen, with an annual common area fee of 47,000 yen. The lease period is renewable, and no renewal fee is required. The building-to-land ratio and floor area ratio are governed by Kiyosato no Mori's self-imposed regulations.
The area is part of the scenic highlands near Kiyosato, known for its clear skies and natural beauty. An interesting local fact is that the region is a popular summer retreat, originally developed with inspiration from Swiss alpine resorts. The closest major landmark is the majestic Yatsugatake mountain range, a popular destination for hiking and outdoor activities throughout the year.
