Saku, Nagano

Price drop! 

Discover your own peaceful mountain retreat in the crisp highland air of Saku, Nagano — only 50 minutes from Karuizawa Prince Hotel Ski Resort.

Set at an elevation of approximately 1,200 meters, this inviting two-storey wooden villa features two well-proportioned bedrooms plus a storage room. It offers cool, comfortable summers when Tokyo temperatures rise, along with picturesque, snow-filled winters.

The home is offered fully furnished and ready for immediate use.

This versatile property can be enjoyed in several ways:

  • A ready-to-go rental investment
  • A private four-season getaway
  • A combination of personal use and rental income

With furnishings included and immediate handover possible, the villa can be prepared for short-term rental use right away (subject to minpaku registration). While the current owner has not registered the property, they have confirmed that registration is feasible and have gathered projected annual income data.

The nearest station, Saku-Daira Station on the Hokuriku Shinkansen Line, provides convenient access—approximately 82 minutes from Tokyo Station, followed by a 30-minute drive to the property.

 Designed for Year-Round Comfort

  • Anti-freeze heating system for water pipes
  • Upgraded foundation with a 10-year workmanship guarantee
  • Comfortable winter living even in heavy snowfall
  • Located within a managed villa community with snow clearing services

Short-Term Rental Projection (estimates only; not guaranteed)

  • Expected annual revenue: approx. ¥3.175 million
  • Estimated expenses: approx. ¥2.165 million (including platform fees, management, and operating costs)
  • Projected net income: approx. ¥1.01 million (around 4.5% ROI)

Note: These projections assume stronger occupancy during summer. Increased winter demand could improve overall returns.

Additional Costs

  • Annual management fee: ¥30,000
  • Fixed asset tax: approx. ¥16,000
