Renovated Corner Lot Home in Toyako with Expansive Land and Modern Upgrades
This charming single-family house, located in the scenic town of Toyako, Hokkaido, presents a fantastic opportunity to own a spacious property currently undergoing a comprehensive renovation. The home is situated on a generous 289.12 sqm (approximately 87.45 tsubo) southwest-facing corner lot, offering excellent sunlight and privacy. The property is priced at 15,490,000 yen, which includes consumption tax and all renovation costs, allowing for a worry-free purchase even while work is in progress.
According to the agent's notes, the renovation scheduled for completion in February 2026 is extensive. The exterior will receive a fresh coat of paint on the walls and roof. Inside, the entire interior is being refreshed with new wallpaper, flooring, fixtures, and downlighting. Key upgrades include a brand-new, spacious one-tsubo (approx. 3.3 sqm) unit bath and a new, modern system kitchen that will be reconfigured to face the living area, perfect for socializing while cooking. The entrance will feature a new insulated door, and the toilet will be completely replaced. The property also includes a new vanity, monitor-equipped intercom, and a dimple key system for security.
The layout is a functional 3LDK spread over two floors. The first-floor Japanese-style room will be integrated into the living area to create a large, open 22-jo (approx. 35.6 sqm) LDK space with the new kitchen. An additional 8-jo (approx. 13 sqm) tatami room will remain. Upstairs, there is a 4.5-jo (approx. 7.3 sqm) Western-style room. The renovation also expands the parking area; the old garage is being demolished and the garden leveled to create space for three cars parked side-by-side.
The property is located in the Irie area of Toyako Town, within the Abuta District of Hokkaido. This region is famous for the stunning Lake Toya (Toyako), a nearly circular caldera lake and a UNESCO Global Geopark. The area is a popular year-round destination known for its hot springs, scenic boat tours, and the spectacular Toyako Onsen fireworks display held nightly from late April to October. The home is an 18-minute walk from Toya Station on the Muroran Main Line, providing access to the natural beauty and resort atmosphere that defines this part of Hokkaido.
