Shin-Akakura House is a spacious detached property located in the Shin-Akakura area of Myoko Kogen, Niigata Prefecture, offering excellent access to some of Japan’s most popular ski resorts. This property is well suited for buyers looking for a ski house in Japan, a holiday home, a family retreat, or a hospitality investment opportunity in the Myoko resort area.

The property is conveniently located near several major ski destinations, including Akakura Kanko Resort, Akakura Onsen Ski Area, Ikenotaira Onsen Ski Resort, and Myoko Suginohara Ski Resort. Each resort can be reached within approximately 5 to 15 minutes by car, while additional ski areas and sightseeing destinations throughout the Myoko and Nagano regions are accessible within approximately 30 to 90 minutes.

Set on approximately 498 sqm of land, the four-storey residence offers approximately 272.16 sqm of interior space with a practical 4LDK + storage layout. The home includes four Japanese-style rooms, multiple toilets, and flexible living areas suitable for families, groups, or guest accommodation. The property can comfortably accommodate approximately 8 to 12 guests.

Designed for the snowy climate of Myoko Kogen, the house features a roof designed to allow snow to naturally slide off, helping reduce winter maintenance requirements. The property also benefits from a snow-cleared road in front of the house, municipal water supply, and city gas connection.

The surrounding area provides convenient daily living with supermarkets, convenience stores, restaurants, pharmacies, home improvement stores, fuel stations, and laundromats nearby. This combination of resort access and everyday convenience makes the property suitable not only for seasonal stays but also for longer-term occupancy.

A wide range of equipment is included, allowing the property to be used immediately. Included items include security cameras, outdoor storage, maintenance tools, a kerosene boiler replaced in 2023, snow blowers purchased in 2025, lawn mowers, furniture, bedding, kitchen equipment, and household essentials.

Recent improvements completed between 2023 and 2025 include electrical upgrades, wallpaper replacement, boiler replacement, plumbing updates, partial sunroom roof repairs, and LED lighting upgrades.

With its generous size, excellent ski resort access, and flexibility for private or commercial use, Shin-Akakura House presents an attractive opportunity for those seeking a Myoko Kogen property for sale in one of Japan’s established mountain resort destinations.
