Single-storey 621 sq m timber residence on a private wooded lot of 6,815 sq m
This residence in Karuizawa stands on a freehold lot of 6,815 sq m, surrounded by mature trees, shrubs and lawn and set back from its approach. The timber house, built in 2005, is a single storey of 621.21 sq m with four bedrooms, a double-height living room with a fireplace, a tatami hall, a formal dining room and a garage. The zone caps building coverage and floor area ratio at 20%, which keeps the plot open and limits development nearby. A drive of about nine minutes reaches the high-speed rail station, and the scale of the rooms suits a large private home or a company retreat.
Why This Opportunity
The 6,815 sq m lot sits in a low-rise zone limited to 20% coverage and 20% floor area ratio. That keeps the plot open and limits what can be built nearby.
A double-height living room, a tatami hall, a formal dining room for group meals and a long galley kitchen suit corporate retreats or large family gatherings.
All 621.21 sq m is on one level, in a timber house completed in 2005. That avoids stairs and suits shared or multi-generational use.
Four toilets, a garage and multiple parking areas support many guests at one time. That is a practical point for a house used as a retreat.
The large bathroom has a sunken tub, timber-lined walls and corner windows facing the trees. It is a Japanese bathing format uncommon in resale stock.
The nearest high-speed rail station is about nine minutes away by car. That links the estate to the national network.
