A 134.72 sqm, 5LDK+S house in Hakone at ¥15,000,000 (approx. $91,575), sold as-is and waiting for the right renovation budget.
This is a 134.72 sqm house on 180.21 sqm of land in Hakone, Kanagawa, offered as-is at ¥15,000,000 (approximately $91,575). The 5LDK+S layout gives five rooms plus a living-dining-kitchen and a service room — substantial floor area for a resort market where most short-term rental inventory is compact. Access, as stated on the source listing: Hakone Tozan Line — Gora Station, 20 min bus + 5 min walk (箱根登山鉄道「強羅」バス20分仙石原歩5分). On the market side, AirROI 2025–2026 data across 323 Hakone listings shows an area average daily rate of $291, 46.0% occupancy, and $45,698 in annual revenue. Those are area-level benchmarks for Hakone, not the income of this house. The property is not renovated and not move-in ready; partial renovation is required and is the buyer's responsibility to scope, budget, and schedule.
