In Furano, where inbound demand remains stable, we present a high-potential investment property (land with an existing house) in Suehiro-cho. This property, originally a student dormitory with a two-unit specification, is ideal for renovation into a vacation rental. With the capacity for year-round operation, it offers numerous logical advantages for strategic investors.+2

The profitability of short-term rentals (Minpaku) depends on access to urban and tourist areas, directly impacting guest satisfaction, repeat bookings, and hotel ratings.
Convenience: Infrastructure Meeting Long-Term Stay Needs
For self-check-in rentals or stays of several weeks, proximity to convenience stores and public transport is critical.
- Access to Public Transport: An 18-minute walk from JR Furano Station, the gateway to the region.
- Lifestyle Superiority: Lawson and 7-Eleven are within a 7-minute walk, ensuring convenience for guests and efficient management.+1
Tourist Access: A Location for Year-Round Demand
Furano’s strength lies in its guaranteed year-round tourism demand, driven by winter skiing and summer lavender seasons.
- Winter: 8 minutes by car to the Kitanomine Zone and 10 minutes to the Furano Zone of the world-renowned Furano Ski Resort.+1
- Summer: 17 minutes by car to “Farm Tomita,” the heart of lavender tourism.+1
Risk Assessment vs. Investment Value

As your real estate partner, we prioritize transparency regarding the property’s challenges. The building is 43 years old, and the sale is in “as-is” condition, with existing roof leaks and residual items. Minimum renovation is required to ensure a quality guest experience. However, two unalterable strengths justify this investment:
Zoning for 365-Day Operation (1st Class Residential Zone):
By obtaining a Hotel Business License, you can operate 365 days a year without the 180-day restriction typical of other residential zones.
Existing Infrastructure to Minimize CAPEX:

The dual-unit specification means water and sewage pipes are already extended to the second floor. This significantly reduces high plumbing costs during conversion.

The 310.40 sqm plot offers ample space. Investors can renovate the existing house or consider a “Scrap and Build” strategy for a new boutique hotel.+3

Profitability Analysis via Floor Plan

The second floor features four independent Japanese-style rooms. This layout, originating from its use as a dormitory, allows for maximizing guest capacity with minimal structural changes.
Summary: Inherent Growth Potential

While age and leaks are manageable through renovation, “365-day zoning” and “prime access” are permanent assets. Combined with the 2nd-floor plumbing, this property is primed to become a high-yield accommodation hub.
