Land for Sale in Nozawaonsen Village, Nagano
This is a plot of land for sale in the sought-after mountain village of Nozawaonsen, Nagano Prefecture. The property is designated as farmland (田) with a total area of 732.00 square meters (approximately 221.43 tsubo). A critical piece of information from the agent's notes is that the property currently has no connection to the public water supply (上水道引込なし). This is a vital consideration for any development plans. However, the agent also provides a crucial note: it is possible to apply for permission under Article 5 of the Agricultural Land Act (農地法第5条許可申請可能). This indicates the potential to convert the land for residential or other non-agricultural uses, subject to the necessary approvals.
The land is located within an urban planning area but is not within any specific zoning district, offering a degree of flexibility. The maximum building coverage ratio (建ぺい率) is 70% and the maximum floor area ratio (容積率) is 300%, allowing for a substantial structure to be built. The listing notes the property is sold via an intermediary arrangement.
Nozawaonsen Village is a world-renowned destination, famous for its abundant natural hot springs (onsen) and as a premier ski resort with deep, high-quality powder snow. The area offers a unique blend of traditional Japanese village culture and world-class winter sports. An interesting fact about the region is that the local dialect and customs have been preserved due to the village's historical isolation in the mountains. The closest major landmark is the Nozawa Onsen Ski Resort itself, a large and historic ski area that attracts visitors from across the globe.
