Discover your own peaceful mountain retreat in the crisp highland air of Saku, Nagano. Set at an elevation of approximately 1,200 meters, this inviting two-storey wooden villa features two well-proportioned bedrooms plus a storage room.

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