Niseko Villa 1715

This stylish mountain chalet blends the best of both worlds - a serene, back-to-nature setting; with all the facilities of Niseko Village Ski Resort – often referred to as the Aspen of Japan – just minutes away. With its sleek black façade and contemporary cubist design, Chalet 1715 is the epitome of modern Japanese architectural design. Minimalist interiors provide a sophisticated yet supremely relaxing living space, with three spacious bedrooms, which comfortably sleep six. The open-plan living area is the heart and soul of Chalet 1715, with expansive picture windows framing views of Mount Yotei and the beautiful forest that skirts the property. Whether travelling with friends or family, this warm and cosy communal space is ideal for sharing a hearty meal around the dining table, or sinking into a sofa and putting your feet up after a memorable day outdoors.

An immaculate modern kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook up a feast, and our partner Niseko Gourmet can help with provisioning, meal deliveries and bespoke private dining experiences. With so many great dining options close by, you may be tempted to eat out. Niseko Village and Hirafu Village are justly famed for their variety of dining options, après ski scene and cosmopolitan vibe.

Niseko is indeed a snowy Shangri-la, but once the snow melts, Chalet’s surrounding countryside blazes with colour and the mountain trails open for hiking and biking. Enjoy the sunshine and glorious views, as you play a round of golf at the award-winning Niseko Village Golf Club, or treat the family to a fun day at Pure – a nature activity centre with the longest zip line in Japan.

No matter the season, Chalet 1715 is an inspired choice for those wishing to enjoy a luxury chalet in a natural setting, away from the hustle and bustle.
