Vacant Land for a Custom Villa in Karuizawa with Views of Mount Asama
This 532.23 square meter (approximately 160.99 tsubo) plot of vacant land presents a prime opportunity to build your custom villa in the prestigious resort town of Karuizawa. The property is situated a convenient 7-minute walk (approximately 500 meters) from Nakakaruizawa Station on the Shinano Railway line, offering excellent access while maintaining a peaceful, private atmosphere. The land is notably flat, simplifying construction plans and landscaping.
Critical agent notes provide essential details for prospective buyers. The property is connected to Chubu Electric Power Company for its electricity supply. A crucial note states that as this property is before a land subdivision registration, the area may differ after the registration is completed. Furthermore, there is a one-time sewerage beneficiary contribution fee of 600 yen per square meter, payable in a lump sum.
The land is zoned within multiple districts including the First Category Residential District and Quasi-Industrial District, with a building coverage ratio of 60-80% and a floor area ratio of 200%. It faces a public road approximately 6.0 meters wide on its north side. The property enjoys a scenic view of Mount Asama to the northwest, a defining feature of the area. Utility connections for water and sewerage are available in the front road, though separate connection work to the site will be required.
The surrounding Karuizawa area is a world-renowned highland resort, famous for its cool summers, lush nature, and sophisticated atmosphere. An interesting historical fact is that Karuizawa became a popular summer retreat for foreign diplomats and missionaries in the late 19th century, helping to establish its international character. The closest major landmark is the active volcano Mount Asama itself, a majestic natural symbol visible from the property. The region is also dotted with famous sites like the historic Karuizawa Stone Church and the serene Kumoba Pond.
