Hakuchōzan: An Award-Winning Ski Chalet in Niseko Hirafu
Hakuchōzan, translating to "Swan Mountain," is a seven-bedroom luxury ski chalet located in the prestigious Hirafu Village of Niseko. This property was inspired by Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria and was conceived as a multi-generational family retreat. The chalet blends communal spaces with private nooks, allowing for both gathering and quiet reflection. It offers panoramic views of Mount Yotei.
The chalet features seven en-suite bedrooms, an outdoor jacuzzi deck with a fireplace and BBQ, a man cave bar, a game room, an elevator, and a single-car garage. It is fully serviced under the Haku Life Collection, which includes a butler and private chef, delivering what is described as Niseko’s only six-star chalet experience. The property has won four World Ski Awards for Japan’s Best Ski Chalet (2018, 2019, 2020, and 2023).
Built in 2016, the property has water and sewer services at the street. The chalet is located on a quiet road in Lower Hirafu, providing privacy while being moments from shuttle stops, restaurants, and bars. It is a 4-minute walk to the village centre, an 8-minute walk to the Family Chair Lift at Grand Hirafu, and a 5-minute walk to a convenience store. The nearest train station is about 5.5 km away, and New Chitose Airport is roughly 110 km from the property.
