Description
Set along the highly accessible Route 343 corridor in Kabayama, this versatile Niseko property combines immediate usability with strong long-term redevelopment potential. The site includes two matching, well-maintained cottages, each offering 2-bedroom accommodation across 55.89 square metres.
Both cottages are designed for practical year-round use, with full kitchens, private bathrooms, and open living spaces. This makes the property suitable for short-term rentals, staff accommodation, guest use, or private alpine stays close to Hirafu.
A key feature of this property is its position within the Kabayama Roadside District and the Tourism II Specific-use Restriction Area, supporting a range of resort-focused uses subject to the relevant approvals. This adds value for buyers considering future commercial, hospitality, or accommodation-related redevelopment.

Zoning and Redevelopment Potential
The property is located within the Kabayama Roadside District and the Tourism II Specific-use Restriction Area, both of which support its long-term redevelopment potential. As part of the Hirafu Highland Landscape District, the site benefits from a planning framework intended to support resort-focused development while maintaining the quality and character of the surrounding area.
Permitted and potentially suitable uses may include short-term rental accommodation, hotels, ryokans, and other hospitality-related projects, subject to the relevant approvals. The district allows a maximum building height of 13 metres, with setback, design, colour, and landscape controls applying to future development.
Any future project would remain subject to the Building Standards Law, Fire Service Act, access, parking, landscape, and infrastructure requirements.
