Two-household timber house on 305 sq m, ten minutes on foot from a station
This two-storey timber house of 160.64 square metres in Karuizawa was built in September 2009 and is arranged as two self-contained households with two separate entrances. It stands on 305.65 square metres of flat, registered freehold residential land, with parking for two cars at no charge and a garden around the house. The ground floor has Japanese-style and Western-style rooms, while the upper floor has a large living, dining and kitchen room and a balcony. A local railway station is about a ten-minute walk away, which suits a family sharing the building or a buyer wanting a second home with separate living spaces.
Why This Opportunity
Two entrances and two sets of bathroom, washroom and toilet serve a ground-floor and an upper-floor home. The house suits a family sharing the building or separate living spaces.
A local railway station is a 10-minute walk, about 780 m, from the house. That is unusual in a town where many second homes depend on a car.
The land is registered freehold residential land and flat, with a completed setback and no private-road burden. There are no road-share complications at purchase.
A Flat 35 S conformity certificate and the original design documents are available, and the building confirmation has been obtained. This helps a buyer's solicitor and lender.
No management fees apply. The house uses public water and sewerage, propane gas and mains electricity, and double glazing and heating are already fitted.
The seller will negotiate on handing over the furniture and appliances. This could make the house usable as a second home from the first visit.
