Izumo House: A Spacious Corner Lot with Mount Yotei Views in Kutchan, Hokkaido
This property, known as Izumo House, presents a significant land opportunity in the sought-after area of Kutchan, Hokkaido. The lot is a substantial 792.34 square meters (approximately 239.68 tsubo) and is situated on a corner location facing National Route 393. A key feature of the land is the presence of an old, unregistered house, offering potential for renovation or redevelopment. The property benefits from public water supply.
The land is designated as residential land and falls outside of urban planning zones, offering flexibility. The building-to-land ratio is 70% and the floor area ratio is 400%, allowing for a sizable future construction. The property is being sold via an intermediary, with the handover date open for consultation. A major highlight is the scenic view of Mount Yotei, the iconic volcano often referred to as "Ezo Fuji," which is visible from the site.
The area of Kutchan is part of the greater Niseko region, world-renowned for its exceptional powder snow and premier ski resorts, attracting international visitors year-round. An interesting fact is that the region's microclimate, created by Siberian winds picking up moisture from the Sea of Japan, results in some of the lightest, driest snow on earth. The closest major landmark is the majestic Mount Yotei itself, a near-perfect stratovolcano and a popular destination for hiking and sightseeing.
