Spacious Vacation Home in Karuizawa with Separate Guest Houses
This expansive vacation property is located in the desirable Nakakaruizawa, Tomigaoka area of Karuizawa Town, Nagano Prefecture. Built in July 2004, the main house is a two-story reinforced concrete structure with a zinc-plated steel plate roof, offering a total floor area of 260.40 square meters (approximately 78.77 tsubo). The layout is a generous 4LDK plus an additional LDK and garage, providing ample space for family, guests, or corporate retreats.
As detailed in the agent's notes, the property features two separate outbuildings, adding significant functional space. The first separate building, also constructed in July 2004, is a single-story reinforced concrete structure with a flat roof and a floor area of 25.08 square meters (7.58 tsubo). The second separate building, built in May 2008, is a single-story steel-frame structure with an alloy-plated steel plate roof and a floor area of 43.06 square meters (13.02 tsubo). These structures are ideal for use as guest houses, studios, or hobby rooms. The property sits on a large plot of 1,538.54 square meters (approximately 465.40 tsubo), ensuring privacy and a sense of openness. The electrical service is provided by Chubu Electric Power Co., Ltd.
Interior amenities include underfloor heating in the LDK, all bedrooms, and the washroom, air conditioning in each room, and a fireplace in the LD area. Parking is accommodated by a garage for one car and space for two additional cars. Important notes include that the existing garage does not meet the current road setback regulations (requiring 5 meters from the road boundary) and cannot be rebuilt in the same location. Also, a portion of the land is within a sediment disaster warning area (yellow zone). The property is currently vacant and ready for handover.
