A recently built six-bedroom log house with wood decks, a wood-burning stove and a sauna room in a quiet villa area
Karuizawa is a highland resort town in Nagano Prefecture, and this log house stands in a quiet villa neighbourhood with extensive grounds and a tree-lined canal a short walk away. Built in 2025 from imported timber chosen for durability and insulation, it has two floors and six bedrooms, each with access to a wooden deck. The living room has a wood-burning stove, the bathroom is large with ventilation and drying functions, and a sauna room is ready for equipment. It suits a family or a group seeking a spacious, warm mountain retreat.
Why This Opportunity
Each bedroom opens onto a wooden deck. The layout suits a large family or a group of guests who want outdoor space directly from their rooms.
The log walls use imported timber selected for durability and insulation. This is relevant in a highland climate where winters are cold.
A wood-burning stove stands in the living room and gives the house a primary heat source. It sits on a tiled hearth against timber walls.
The sauna room is built and awaits equipment. A buyer can choose the heater and finish without structural work.
The house was completed in 2025, with fresh timber, new flooring and a modern tiled bathroom.
The setting is a peaceful villa area with generous grounds. A tree-lined canal with a path beside it is a short walk away.
