Modern Japanese style
where old and new intersect

Beyond the private passageway, this is a single-storey Machiya built in 1949.
The beams and plaster walls have been kept as they were, with a new taste added to create a calm space of black and white.

A single-storey house popular for its ease of living, with a loft and storeroom that provide ample storage space. You can enjoy the garden view from the large window in the Tatami room, which transforms the one-storey house into a space with a sense of openness.

This property is only about a 3-minute walk to Marutamachi Subway Station. From Marutamachi Station, it takes only approx. 7 min. ride (4 stations away) to Kyoto Station, the gateway to Kyoto, making it convenient to live in even without a car. The Kyoto Imperial Palace (Gosho) is located very close to the property, where the surrounding area is beautifully landscaped with a variety of trees. To the southwest is Nijo Castle (about a 14-minute walk), and to the east is the Kamo River (about a 16-minute walk), which together with the Imperial Palace makes a popular running and walking course in Kyoto. An early morning run around the perimeter of the Imperial Palace would be refreshing.
