Fujikawaguchiko 3LDK Akiya Near Mt. Fuji — ¥6M STR Project
Claim a 3LDK house near Kawaguchiko Station for ¥6,000,000 (about $40,134).
Set in Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi, this 1985-built 3LDK detached house sits on 299.58 sqm of land with 96.8 sqm of floor space, a short reach from Kawaguchiko Station and roughly 150 minutes from Tokyo's Shinjuku terminal. It is sold as-is and needs partial renovation, so budget the work before you count on returns. For context, AirROI 2025–2026 data across 471 area listings shows an average daily rate of $241 and 49.8% occupancy, translating to about $41,581 in average annual revenue at the area level — a benchmark for the neighborhood, not this home's actual income. For hands-on investors chasing the Mt. Fuji short-term-rental market, this is an entry-priced base worth shaping into your own project.
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.
