Pet-Friendly Resort Condominium with Onsen in Minakami, Gunma
This 1DK condominium, located in the scenic resort town of Minakami, Gunma Prefecture, offers a unique blend of weekend getaway potential and convenient access. Situated just a 5-6 minute walk from JR Joetsu Line's Kamimoku Station and approximately 4 minutes by car from the Kanetsu Expressway's Minakami IC, it provides excellent connectivity for both relaxation and commuting to urban centers.
The property is part of the 'Weissbaden Tsukiyono Villa III' building, a 14-story structure built in May 1991. This unit is on the 7th floor and features a private balcony of 5.56 sqm with eastern exposure. The interior offers a Japanese-style room of 8 tatami mats and a DK (dining kitchen) of 7.4 mats, with a total wall-core exclusive area of 40.04 sqm (approximately 12.11 tsubo). Key building amenities include an auto-lock security system, elevator, and a significant highlight: a communal onsen (hot spring) bath. The onsen is supplied with natural hot spring water, operates on a free-flowing system, and is open 24 hours (with cleaning from 10:00 to 15:00). Other equipment includes storage space, BS/CS satellite TV terminals, security cameras, and hot water supply.
