Meitetsu Akazawa is a vacation property development spread across mountainous terrain near Yawatano, encompassing over 900 residential plots with numerous constructed homes and permanent residences. The development combines vacation housing with year-round living spaces across the landscape.
The development began in 1968 under Meitetsu Real Estate, transforming the mountainous landscape into a residential retreat. It grew gradually over the following decades with the addition of homes and facilities.
The property offers access to natural hot springs where residents and visitors experience traditional Japanese bathing culture within the residential setting.
A complimentary shuttle bus links the property to Izu-Kogen Station five times daily with about 10 minutes of travel time. Spring and autumn months offer the most comfortable weather for exploring the area.
The property has recently become the focus of local concern regarding solar panel installations in the surrounding mountains. This situation prompted changes to municipal regulations and highlights tensions between energy development and landscape preservation.
