Consider this house an an alternative investment to Niseko. Reasonable pricing, better view and 1 hour drive to Sapporo and 1.5 hours drive to Niseko – an ideal “location for buying your house in Hokkaido – a hub of amazing food and outdoor activities, including snow and mountains.

The house, located in Otaru City, is on the top of hill with a perpetual and expansive view of ocean from above. The land is 205.2SQM with GFA of 238.47SQM – a large house for a Japanese standard. An oversized jacuzzi is also equipped on the seaside angle and one can enjoy amazing sunset over a bottle of sake while taking bath.

The 5 bedroom unit is priced at JPY 68,000,000 – USD 571,000. Considering the price – this is way cheaper than Niseko. With this price range – the best a buyer can purchase is 3 bedroom condominium in Hirafu Village.

One note – this house is an ideal for your second home – not for investment. Rentability and resell-ability of the house is far less greater than Niseko.
