Furano 4LDK Corner Lot — Municipal Sewer, 3-Car Park, 20 Min to Ski Resort
¥13.49M, 1991-built 4LDK on 330㎡ corner lot. Municipal sewer. 20 min drive to Furano Ski Resort. Hokkaido's iconic lavender + ski STR market.
At ¥13.49M (US$90K), this 1991-built 4LDK on a flat corner lot in Furano's Yamabe valley offers post-seismic structure and — critically — municipal sewerage (本下水), which is uncommon and valuable in rural Hokkaido STR properties. Four separate bedrooms in an 81㎡ single-storey layout suit the Furano market's demand profile: skiers and photographers who travel in small groups year-round. AirROI 2025–2026 records $318 ADR and $29,421 median annual revenue across 225 Furano Airbnb listings — with January (ski season peak) generating the highest monthly revenue. Average stay 3.2 nights, the longest of any market in the dataset. Total investment ¥16.3–19.6M. Gross yield 27.0%, payback 3.7–4.5 years. Practical note: groundwater supply (地下水) — request water quality report and confirm supply reliability with agent. Yamabe area has its own hot spring day-spa and ski run 5 min away.
Minpaku (short-term rental) status not confirmed. Verify with the municipal office and your agent before completing purchase. STR operation may be restricted to 180 days/yr or prohibited.
