Timber-framed three-bedroom villa with a raised deck among mature trees
Karuizawa is a mountain resort town in Nagano Prefecture, and this villa stands on a wooded plot of more than 1,600 square metres. The two-storey house has a plaster and dark timber exterior, an attached garage and a raised deck that opens from the living room through full-height glazing. Inside, the main room has a high beamed ceiling and the dining room a woven reed ceiling, while the bedroom looks into the forest. It suits a buyer seeking a private seasonal home in woodland who is happy to refresh the interiors.
Why This Opportunity
The land is held under ownership and is large for a three-bedroom house. Mature deciduous trees surround the building and screen it from neighbouring plots.
The raised deck is partly roofed and has a dining table with chairs and a gas barbecue. It connects directly to the living room through full-height glazing.
Exposed timber beams and a glazed wall give the main room a forest outlook. It is the feature most likely to suit a seasonal buyer.
The photographs show a garage at the front of the house. This is useful for a resort home that is used through the winter.
