Marubeni Fujizakura Resort Villa in Kawaguchiko
This charming detached villa, located within the Marubeni Fujizakura Resort Area in Kawaguchiko, Yamanashi Prefecture, offers a bright and inviting 2LDK layout perfect for a vacation retreat. The property's key feature is its spacious living, dining, and kitchen area (LDK), which benefits from decks on both the south and east sides, allowing you to enjoy meals while listening to birdsong. The villa is set on a generous 824 m² plot featuring a garden surrounded by deep greenery. This outdoor space is versatile enough to serve as a dog run for your pets, a spot for home vegetable gardening, or an ideal setting for barbecues and other hobbies.
According to the agent's notes, the property's equipment includes electricity supplied by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). Critical special notes include a one-time repair reserve fund contribution of 200,000 yen (non-taxable) and a one-time water facility membership contribution of 100,000 yen (non-taxable). It is important to note that the existing building does not comply with the setback regulation (requiring 3.0 meters or more from the adjacent land), meaning it cannot be rebuilt in the same location if reconstruction is necessary. Furthermore, the management regulations prohibit business activities such as minpaku (private lodging services). The property was built in May 1978 and features a wooden structure with zinc-galvanized steel sheet roofing. Facilities within the resort area include two tennis courts, one available for 1,500 yen per hour and another available free of charge.
The surrounding area of Fujikawaguchiko Town is part of the iconic Fuji Five Lakes region at the base of Mount Fuji. An interesting local fact is that Lake Kawaguchi is the most developed of the five lakes and is famous for its perfect, mirror-like reflection of Mount Fuji on calm days, a phenomenon known as "Sakasa Fuji" (Upside-down Fuji). The closest major landmark is, unsurprisingly, the majestic Mount Fuji itself, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Japan's most famous natural symbol, offering year-round scenic beauty and outdoor activities.
