Marubeni Fujizakura Villa Area: A Swedish-Style Chalet with Wood Stove in the Fuji Five Lakes Region
This charming 3LDK detached villa is located within the Marubeni Fujizakura Villa Area, a resort community in the scenic Fuji Five Lakes region. Built in November 2000, this two-story wooden structure features a Swedish-style design and a welcoming wood-burning stove in the living and dining area. The south-east facing living and dining room is designed to take advantage of natural ventilation and sunlight, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The property includes a sunny wooden deck, three parking spaces, and is situated approximately 260 meters from the management office.
According to the agent's notes, the property's equipment includes electricity provided by Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). Critical special notes detail one-time financial contributions: a repair reserve fund contribution of 400,000 yen (non-taxable) and a water facility membership contribution of 200,000 yen (non-taxable). The villa is equipped with LP gas for individual use, a private water supply system, an oil-powered water heater, and an individual purification tank for drainage and sewage.

The closest major landmark is the iconic Mount Fuji itself, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Japan's most famous symbol, offering endless opportunities for hiking, photography, and cultural appreciation.
