Secluded Mountain Retreat in Nasu, Tochigi

This unique property offers a rare opportunity for a quiet, secluded lifestyle in the mountains of Tochigi Prefecture. Located at the very end of a subdivision road, the home is surrounded by wooded vacant lots, ensuring no neighboring houses are within sight and creating a profound sense of privacy and tranquility. The wide, well-maintained private road is easy to navigate and is cleared of snow in winter.

The house itself is a two-story wooden structure with a zinc-coated steel plate roof, remarkably well-maintained and not showing its age of approximately 40 years. It features a distinctive layout: a 9-tatami room on a mid-level floor and a 6-tatami room on the second floor, with all rooms facing south for excellent natural light. The kitchen boasts an island-style sink, and parking is conveniently located under the 9-tatami room.

According to agent notes, the property is equipped with electricity, a private water supply, a septic tank system (water flush), and parking. Important notes include an annual management fee of 74,800 yen (tax included), a title transfer fee of 231,000 yen (tax included), and an elevation of approximately 630 meters. The land is zoned as forest and is located in a non-designated area within the urban planning zone, with a building coverage ratio of 60% and a floor area ratio of 200%.

The area is part of the scenic Nasu region, known for its highland resorts, hot springs, and outdoor activities. A major nearby landmark is the famous Nasu Rindo Lake, a beautiful crater lake offering hiking trails and stunning seasonal views. While daily amenities like supermarkets, home centers, and a post office are within a 7-8 km drive, this property is ideally suited for those seeking to immerse themselves in a hobby, work, or simply enjoy a life free from the distractions and interference of a crowded neighborhood, rather than for extensive vegetable gardening.
