Baden Memorial Kusatsu: A Resort Condominium with Natural Hot Spring Onsen
Baden Memorial Kusatsu is a 14-story steel and reinforced concrete condominium complex located in the heart of the famous Kusatsu Onsen town in Gunma Prefecture. Completed in October 1986, this 214-unit building offers a unique resort lifestyle centered around its exceptional shared facilities. The property's defining feature is its large, communal hot spring bath (onsen) fed by natural, free-flowing thermal spring water, available for residents to enjoy 24 hours a day. The complex also includes a sauna, a multi-purpose hall, and a lounge area.
According to the agent's notes, the property's equipment and utilities include electricity supplied by Tokyo Electric Power, town water supply, and public sewerage. Notably, there is no gas supply to the building. A critical point for potential buyers or residents is that the installation of air conditioning units is not permitted. Furthermore, viewings of the large communal bath are原则上 only possible during its cleaning hours, from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM (and from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Thursdays). The building underwent a major renovation in November 2022 and features 24-hour auto-lock security, a lobby with Wi-Fi, and free outdoor parking (70 spaces in summer, 30 in winter). Pets are not allowed.
The location is highly convenient, being just a 2-minute walk from the Kusatsu Komakusa Hospital, providing peace of mind for long-term stays. It is approximately a 12-minute walk from the Kusatsu Onsen Bus Terminal, the main transport hub for the area.
