Karuizawa Shirakabadai | A Private Retreat for Experiencing the Four Seasons of Japan
Own the Four Seasons of Japan in Karuizawa.
Located in the peaceful Shirakabadai area of Karuizawa, this distinctive residence offers more than a place to escape the city.
It is a home where you can experience the beauty of Japan throughout the year, surrounded by nature and thoughtful Japanese design.
In spring, flowers begin to bloom and the garden turns fresh green. Summer brings cool breezes through the surrounding forest. In autumn, the landscape is transformed by vibrant foliage. During winter, the warmth of a wood-burning fireplace creates a peaceful retreat as snow occasionally settles across the garden.
Here, the changing seasons are not simply something to admire from a distance. They become part of everyday life.

Japanese Aesthetics Meet Contemporary Comfort
The interior combines modern comfort with elements of traditional Japanese design.
A contemporary tatami room overlooks the tranquil Japanese garden, while soft natural light filters through shoji screens. Traditional details such as a tokonoma alcove and an electric kotatsu add a distinctly Japanese character to the home.
One of the property's most distinctive outdoor features is its expansive wood deck, measuring approximately 46 tatami mats in size and facing the surrounding forest. This generous outdoor space provides a natural extension of the home, offering a peaceful setting for dining, relaxing or simply enjoying the changing seasons and the greenery beyond.
The garden incorporates elements of Japanese landscape design, including moss and a traditional bamboo water feature.
During the colder months, the wood-burning fireplace provides a warm and inviting place to relax and enjoy the unique atmosphere of winter in Karuizawa.

From Visiting Japan to Living with the Seasons of Japan
For those who have visited Japan and developed an appreciation for its culture, architecture and natural beauty, Karuizawa offers an opportunity to experience a different side of the country.
Despite its peaceful natural surroundings, the property is conveniently located near the center of Karuizawa. From Tokyo Station, Karuizawa Station can be reached in approximately one hour by the Hokuriku Shinkansen, followed by a drive of approximately 9 minutes, or 4.1 km, to the property.
Its central location also provides convenient access to Karuizawa Station, the town hall, medical facilities and shopping areas, making it possible to enjoy both the tranquility of nature and the convenience of everyday amenities.
Karuizawa combines the convenience of a renowned resort destination with abundant forests, seasonal landscapes and a slower pace of life.
Shirakabadai is particularly suited to those seeking a peaceful second home where they can spend time surrounded by nature.
The property could serve as a private vacation home when visiting Japan, a second home for extended stays, or simply a place to enjoy Japanese nature and culture at your own pace.
Four seasons. Japanese aesthetics. Nature at your window.
More than a vacation home in Karuizawa, this is a place to make a lasting connection with Japan.
