A Single-Story Retreat in Chichibu's Minano Town
Nestled within the "Momiji no Sato" area of Minano Town, this single-story house features large windows that bring the surrounding greenery indoors. The property includes a living room with a terrace, a Japanese-style room, and a kitchen. A hammock offers a perfect spot to relax amidst the natural setting.
The Minano area blends traditional streets with mountainous terrain. This house is located approximately 16 kilometers from central Chichibu City, about a 40-minute drive. The surrounding neighborhood was developed as a vacation home area in the early Heisei period, with a mix of permanent and part-time residents.
Nearby, Minano Town's Bi no Yama Park offers spectacular seasonal views, particularly during the spring poppy blooms. The region is also known for the Chichibu-Tama-Kai National Park, one of Japan's largest national parks, featuring the iconic Nagatoro River gorge with its dramatic rock formations.
