Panoramic Views and Hot Spring Potential in Izu's Golf Garden
Nestled within the tranquil residential area of the Golf Garden subdivision in Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture, this property offers a perfect base for either a vacation home or permanent residence. The house, a two-story wooden structure with slate roofing, underwent comprehensive interior and exterior renovations in April 2024, including updates to the plumbing and the pathways within the grounds, making it move-in ready.
According to the agent's notes, the property's standout feature is its exceptional panoramic views. From inside the home, you can enjoy vistas of Lake Ippeki, Mount Fuji, Mount Omuro, and the Amagi mountain range, providing ever-changing scenery throughout the seasons. The property also allows for the installation of a private hot spring (onsen). If utilizing this option, there is a hot water drawing right fee of 1,100,000 yen every five years, plus construction costs. Additional notes include a water supply name transfer fee of 220,000 yen, the existence of subdivision regulations, and an annual neighborhood association fee of 13,200 yen. Parking is available for two compact cars or one large vehicle.
The location is highly convenient, with a golf course, hot springs, and a beach all nearby. Daily necessities are within easy reach, with a Family Mart convenience store approximately 600 meters away and a Max Value supermarket about 2.0 km from the property.
Ito City, located on the eastern Izu Peninsula, is one of Shizuoka's premier hot spring destinations and is accessible from Tokyo in as little as 105 minutes. The area is rich in natural beauty and volcanic activity. A fascinating local fact is that nearby Mount Omuro is a dormant volcano whose grassy summit is maintained by annual controlled burning, a unique practice that creates a striking, perfectly conical silhouette. The closest major tourist attraction is the stunning Lake Ippeki, a caldera lake renowned for its deep blue waters and serene atmosphere, perfect for boating and enjoying the surrounding nature.
