Enjoy a BBQ while listening to the sounds of nature In the evening, gather around the campfire and relax under the starry sky while roasting marshmallows. [House Story] This house was born from a childhood dream of living in a Nordic house. It all started with my longing for a warm cabin and quiet nature, like in a story. After living in Sweden and New Zealand, I returned to Japan and, together with my husband Andy, took over a cabin that was just one month away from being demolished. This house was carefully renovated piece by piece by my husband and I, like a work of art, and was reborn in harmony with the Nordic way of thinking that values connection with nature and the beautiful natural environment of this place. 4 km to Lake Biwa (Imazuhama) 1 km to a convenience store (Lawson) Large supermarket (Heiwado) 10 minutes by car 15-minute drive to the Metasequoia tree-lined street
