a versatile Kyomachiya
for either residential use or guesthouse operation

This Kyomachiya, previously used as a guesthouse, exudes quintessential Kyoto charm. With a 6 rooms + dining-kitchen layout that is not overly spacious, it offers ample space for a dual-family residence or a combination of workplace and home.

Situated in a quiet residential area, it is located in the Umekoji area, a burgeoning tourist spot rich with greenery. The property boasts convenient access: it's about a 12-minute walk to JR Tanbaguchi Station on the Sanin mainline, and about a 13-minute walk to JR Umekoji-Kyotonishi Station on the same line.

PLAN

The property underwent exterior painting, installation of a new bathroom and washbasin, and re-flooring with Tatami mats in July 2020.
The high-design washbasin, window glass, and sliding door handles feature intricate decorations that exude a retro charm. The dining-kitchen area, equipped with an IH stove, has a contemporary feel with a touch of modern Japanese style. Solid single boards are used for the pillars and floorboards, which are both beautiful and eye-catching.

From the hallway, you can enjoy views of the garden, which brings in ample natural light and good ventilation, ensuring a comfortable living environment. The frontage is a spacious 7.5m wide, enhancing the sense of openness of this property.
