Back Alley Kyomachiya in the City Center

Shijo Street, lined with financial institutions and department stores, intersects with Karasuma Street where office buildings stand tall. The intersection of these two major streets, Shijo-Karasuma, has long been the bustling heart of Kyoto, flourishing as the center of finance and business. It also serves as a key transportation hub with many bus routes crisscrossing the city originating or terminating here, providing convenience to various destinations.

The property we are introducing is suitable not only for residential use and a second home but also for office space.

Given its proximity within walking distance to Shijo-Karasuma, the central hub of business and economics, the surrounding is a vibrant area with many office buildings and restaurants. Recently, there has been an increase in diverse facilities, including shops and offices, renovated from traditional Machiya townhouses. This area, with a mix of old and new, attracts a diverse crowd, making it a popular and timeless location.

One of the charms of the Shijo-Karasuma area is its excellent transportation links that provide easy access not only within Kyoto but also to destinations outside Kyoto, such as Osaka. Conveniently, JR Kyoto Station is also easily reachable by bicycle.
