Hakuba Kamishiro Modern Chalet
Post-2000 Ichijo build. Corner lot. Floor heat. 14 min walk to Iimori Station.
Post-millennium Ichijo Komuten chalet in Kamishiro — the southern gateway to Hakuba Valley, 7 minutes' drive from Goryu ski resort base. Built 2001 on a 508㎡ corner lot with dual road frontage (10m south, 6m west); geotechnical survey on file and post-2000 seismic compliance mean no structural surprises. Underfloor heating throughout, shutter garage, and double-glazed windows reduce friction for international buyers. Cosmetic refresh only before STR operation. Hakuba recorded the highest STR metrics of any Japan ski region: $456 ADR and $47,873 median annual revenue (AirROI 2025–2026, 539 active listings). Foreign buyer share exceeded 90% in 2024–25.
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.
