Newly Built 2LDK Vacation Home in Karuizawa with Detached Storage Shed
This newly constructed two-story wooden vacation home in the sought-after Nagakura and Kashinjyuku area of Karuizawa offers a bright and modern 2LDK layout, with all living rooms oriented to the south to maximize sunlight. The property features a unique design with balconies that add depth and character to the exterior facade. A key highlight is the inclusion of a detached storage shed with a floor area of 9.20 sqm (2.78 tsubo), which can also be utilized as an outdoor kitchen, perfect for enjoying the resort lifestyle.
According to the agent's notes, the total floor area and the area of the detached shed (storage) are based on the figures stated in the confirmation application. Therefore, there may be a discrepancy between these figures and the officially registered area. The property is currently under construction, with completion and handover scheduled for early March 2026. The home is equipped for year-round comfort with three air conditioning units (in the LDK, Western Room 1, and Western Room 2), a wood-burning stove in the earthen-floored space, and underfloor heating on the first floor. Utilities are provided by Chubu Electric Power Company for electricity, individual LP gas for cooking and hot water, and public water and sewer systems.
The property sits on a generous 403.67 sqm (122.11 tsubo) plot and offers a total floor area of 116.75 sqm (35.31 tsubo). It includes parking space for two vehicles. The interior layout comprises a spacious LDK with a distinct earthen-floored area, a kitchen, two Western-style rooms, two toilets, a washroom, and a bathroom.
Karizawa is a premier mountain resort town renowned for its cool summers, beautiful natural scenery, and upscale atmosphere. An interesting fact is that Karuizawa was developed as a summer retreat for foreign diplomats and the Japanese elite in the late 19th century, cementing its status as a fashionable getaway. The area is surrounded by natural beauty, with the closest major landmark being the scenic Usui Pass, which offers breathtaking views and hiking trails through the Joshin'etsukogen National Park.
