This rare flat, ready-to-build lot sits on the desirable edge of the Niseko Izumikyo residential area, offering an exceptional opportunity for a custom residence, holiday home, or investment development. The parcel is strategically positioned to balance peaceful resort living with convenient access to Niseko’s world-class attractions.
Location & Accessibility The site is just a few minutes’ drive from the Grand Hirafu ski lifts, and well served by the local resort shuttle, making winter access straightforward even without a car. While slightly removed from the centre of Hirafu, the property benefits from a tranquil environment and the established community feel of Izumikyo.
Development Potential
Ready for construction: flat terrain and serviced road access reduce groundwork complexity and costs.
Ideal for a custom home, chalet, or boutique rental property.
Great opportunity for holiday home development or as a speculative land banker site given the ongoing demand for residential properties in the greater Niseko market.
Land in Izumikyo is increasingly rare compared to central Hirafu, yet it remains within easy reach of resort amenities.
Izumikyo Neighbourhood Highlights
Residential resort community: Izumikyo is a well-known established residential area within the broader Hirafu region, with a mix of permanent homes and rental properties.
Community and lifestyle: Quietly set among forested parcels with easy access to local dining and services within walking distance in some sections of the neighbourhood and short shuttle routes.
Strong local infrastructure from past phased developments — including landscaped streets, utility connections, and a balanced blend of nature and built environments — supports quality residential living.
Niseko Market Context Niseko Hirafu remains one of Japan’s most internationally recognised ski and resort property markets, valued for its premium snow conditions, year-round activity options, and strong global appeal. Land with ready building potential like this lot is becoming increasingly difficult to secure — offering both lifestyle buyers and investors a compelling proposition relative to central Hirafu pricing.
