Solitude Hanazono

Solitude is one of the most secluded & tranquil luxury properties in Niseko, while it is also one of the closest chalets to the lifts on the entire mountain: it is but a five-minute (500m) walk to the Park Hyatt Hotel and its five-star restaurants, as well as the new Hanazono lifts scheduled to be open December 2021. Mt. Yotei views fill the open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas, while its three floors and two balconies provide for plenty of space for everyone.

This 286m2 custom-crafted home has four bedrooms, with an en suite master bedroom that includes a spacious walk-in closet, a soaking tub and a step-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and a generous, two-room, cork-floored bathroom with the a separate toilet occupy the the top floor. The fourth bedroom is located on the living floor, doubling as a library-office, with architectural bookshelves filling an entire wall, and double glass doors providing access to the garden and a river-stone lined fire pit.

The oversized front door of the chalet gives way to a generous entrance area backed by a six-hundred bottle wine cellar. The ground floor of the house also includes a laundry room with an owner's closet, a dry room and a garage that includes additional lockable storage.

The house sits on a 1,003m2 parcel of land in the quiet subdivision of North Hills and backs onto birch forest. The landscaping has been done in large, over-sized boulders, perennial flowers and railroad ties, with stairs rising from the parking area to a kitchen door at the side of the house. The front of the house is level to the street and paved, and provides for parking for an additional three vehicles.
