HighGrade Villa Yuri House: A Spacious Wooden Home in Niseko's Serene Countryside
This property, listed as HighGrade Villa Yuri House, is a substantial wooden two-story house built in 1993 (Heisei 5). Located at 120 Yuri, Rankoshi-cho, Isoya-gun, Hokkaido, it sits on a generous 698.88 sqm (approximately 211.41 tsubo) plot of land designated for residential use. The total floor area is a comfortable 114.24 sqm (34.56 tsubo). The structure features a zinc-galvanized steel plate roof and is situated outside of urban planning zones, offering significant flexibility with a 70% building coverage ratio and 400% floor area ratio.
Critical agent notes specify that the property utilizes a private water supply (私営水道). The property is part of the Niseko Yuno-sato Management Association, and prospective buyers are advised to inquire about the associated management fees. A unique feature is the inclusion of a "super house," which is a kiln for pottery, along with two storage sheds. The current owners are in residence, so viewings must be arranged by prior appointment. The anticipated handover date is around May 2026 (Reiwa 8.5).
The area around Rankoshi is known for its stunning natural beauty, nestled at the foot of the Niseko mountain range. An interesting local fact is that the region is part of the Shakotan-Otaru Kaigan Quasi-National Park, famous for its dramatic coastal scenery and rich marine life. The closest major landmark is the world-renowned Niseko United ski resort, approximately a 30-minute drive away, attracting international visitors year-round for its legendary powder snow and outdoor activities.
