Sano Kominka

Yamanouchi Town Nagano Pref.

Located in Yamanouchi Town in northern Nagano Prefecture, this property sits near the well-known mountain resort area of Shiga Kogen and Yudanaka Onsen. The surrounding mountains, including Mt. Shirane and Mt. Yokote near Kusatsu Onsen, are famous for both hot springs and some of Japan’s best ski terrain. Built in the late 19th century, this large kominka stands in the quiet hillside hamlet of Sano beside the hot spring town. The peaceful rural setting offers pleasant walks through nearby fields, while the railway station in the hot spring district is within walking distance, providing convenient access to Nagano Station and the Shinkansen.

Why KORYOYA houses?

The traditional Japanese houses listed on KORYOYA are all built before 1950 with the traditional construction method.

The traditional method is the result of more than a thousand years of past carpenters passing down their efforts and wisdoms. As no new houses can be built with the traditional construction method under current law, the high craftsmanship is in danger of becoming a dying art.
