Set right in the heart of Nozawa Onsen, this well-located lodge offers a rare chance to secure a substantial landholding in one of Japan’s most popular alpine villages. Sitting on approximately 350 sqm of land, the existing building spans around 420 sqm across two floors and a basement, offering clear potential for renovation, repositioning, or a full redevelopment.

For buyers looking to build new, the site is especially appealing. Current regulations allow for a 70% building footprint and height of at least 13 metres, giving plenty of flexibility to create a larger lodge, apartments, or a private home in an exceptionally central location. The property is just a 30-second walk from the main bus station, around 20 seconds from the nearest public onsen, and roughly 3 minutes on foot from Oyu Street.

With snow-melting water running through the land and connections in place for town water and electricity, this is a highly practical site as well as a highly strategic one—offering convenience, charm, and real long-term upside in the centre of Nozawa Onsen.
