Set in Hanazono’s North Hills, this substantial landholding offers a rare opportunity in one of Niseko’s most established luxury villa enclaves. What makes it particularly notable is that commercial use is permitted here—something increasingly difficult to find in this location. For buyers considering a private residence, rental villa, or hospitality-led project, that flexibility adds genuine long-term value.

The property is positioned just a short drive from Niseko Hanazono Resort, with Hanazono Golf nearby and the Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono within easy reach. While close to some of the area’s best-known amenities, the setting still feels private and peaceful, with forest and a river behind the site helping to preserve both outlook and seclusion.

The land measures 1,917 sqm and has a well-balanced rectangular shape. The main build area is relatively flat, with a gentle slope extending towards the rear of the site. This natural topography creates scope for a striking architectural approach, whether for a high-end private home or a rental villa designed to make the most of the surrounding forest setting. Depending on design and positioning, the site also offers the potential for impressive views towards Mt. Yotei and nearby ski terrain.

Hanazono continues to attract attention as one of Niseko’s most polished and design-conscious resort areas. Compared with more built-out parts of the market, it still offers a sense of space and future upside, supported by ongoing infrastructure improvements and growing international profile. With Kutchan Station also set to benefit from the planned Hokkaido Shinkansen extension, access to the wider region is expected to improve further over time.

Land currently on the market in North Hills is generally priced in the range of approximately ¥430,000 to ¥600,000 per tsubo. At around ¥378,000 per tsubo, this site stands out not only for its size and setting, but also for the fact that commercial use is permitted—making it an appealing proposition for buyers seeking both lifestyle and development potential.

This is a rare chance to secure a sizeable site in Hanazono North Hills with flexibility that is seldom available in such a tightly held luxury location.
