Yunosato High-Grade Villa Corner Log House in Niseko
This distinctive property, the Yunosato High-Grade Villa Corner Log House, is located in the scenic town of Rankoshi in Hokkaido's Abuta District. The property is a two-story wooden structure with a zinc-galvanized steel plate roof, built in June 1993 (Heisei 5). It offers a unique architectural style featuring a triangular roof and skylights, with the foundation raised for added benefits.
According to the agent's notes, the property is equipped with a private water supply, LP gas, and a septic tank. A notable feature is the presence of an ONSEN (hot spring), though it is noted that the temperature is low, requiring a reheating system (追い焚き). The property is part of the Niseko Yunosato Association (Member No. 632), with a monthly membership fee of 11,973 yen. The annual fixed asset tax is 14,400 yen.
The land spans 331 square meters (approximately 100.13 tsubo) and is zoned as residential land. It faces a 10-meter-wide municipal road to the southwest with a frontage of 14.35 meters and a depth of 23.10 meters. The floor area is 59.62 square meters (18.04 tsubo). The property is located outside of an urban planning area, with no specific land use district designation, a building coverage ratio of 70%, and a floor area ratio of 400%. Snow removal on the front municipal road is handled by the town.
The area is part of the greater Niseko region, renowned for its world-class powder snow and attracting international visitors for winter sports. An interesting fact is that the nearby Mount Yotei is often called "Ezo Fuji" due to its striking resemblance to Mount Fuji. The closest major landmark is the majestic Mount Yotei itself, a dormant volcano and a defining feature of the landscape visible from many points in the region.
