OPUS Nakakaruizawa (Villa A): Karuizawa

OPUS Nakakaruizawa Villa A

Karuizawa

It is not just beautiful, but a design that suits the style of its inhabitants. It does not seek uniform comfort, but rather has the qualities to ensure that you have the best time in Karuizawa. And it is imbued with the attention to detail and passion for craftsmanship that has been cultivated through our many experiences and achievements. We believe that a villa that fulfils each of these requirements is a work that meets the standards we have set for ourselves.

As the name “Opus” suggests, the villas we create are carefully crafted over time in pursuit of the perfect residence for the location. In addition to the traditional Karuizawa feel, they are a stage where you can fully enjoy the charm born from new ideas and techniques. We can never produce many of them. Instead, we carefully and lovingly finish them. At Jiyukobo, we continue to create homes like these.
