Set on a generous 2,274 sqm parcel in the heart of Sugadaira, this unique property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a former lodge with renovation and development potential, just minutes from the ski slopes.
Property Highlights:
- Land size: 2,274 sqm
- Main lodge: 463.32 sqm across 2 floors
- 6 bedrooms
- Two spacious Japanese-style baths
- Industrial kitchen, bar area, and reception space
- Large lounge with stove
- Dedicated ski locker room
- Operated previously as a ski lodge, with existing fixtures and layout intact
The property requires refurbishment but offers an excellent foundation for a boutique lodge, hospitality business, or private retreat.
Additional Structures and Land:
In addition, the property includes a separate neighbouring house (173.84 sqm), currently considered a teardown, offering further scope for redevelopment.
The expansive grounds, formerly home to a tennis court, provide flat, usable land with ample space for additional construction, subject to planning. The site is now partially wooded, offering flexibility to either preserve the natural setting or clear for further development.
Location and Access:
Ideally located just 1–2 minutes from the nearest ski lifts, and approximately 3 minutes by car to Pine Beak Ski Area—one of the region’s largest resorts.
The property also benefits from convenient access to Tokyo, at under 3 hours door-to-door from Tokyo Station, making it highly attractive to both domestic and international visitors.
Minpaku (Short-term Rental) & Development Potential:
Road access is understood to be sufficient for obtaining a minpaku (short-term rental) license, while access for larger construction works may require further discussion.
This is a compelling opportunity for investors or developers seeking a value-add project in one of Nagano’s established ski destinations.
