AREA
The property is located in a quiet residential area on the west side of a UNESCO World Heritage Site - Toji Temple, which is the head temple of the Shingon sect of Japanese Buddhism.
Toji Temple, built around the same time as Heiankyo, is now the only existing Heiankyo remains and was considered to be one of the two major temples of the time along with Saiji Temple. Since then, Toji has been watching over the city of Kyoto for about 1200 years.
There are many designated national treasures and important cultural properties in the precincts. During the cherry blossom and autumn leaves season, the precinct will be lit up by a special illumination at night.
There are elementary and junior high schools not far from the property.
Also, if you go a little further, you can find plenty of living facilities and outing spots such as AEON MALL KYOTO, Umekoji Park, and Kyoto Aquarium, which you can visit with your family. A living environment where you can enjoy convenient town life and abundant nature.

PLAN
The house is located one step from the main street where you can enjoy a hideaway atmosphere.
With a land site facing the southeast corner, which is especially popular among corner lots, it brings a sense of openness due to approaching the road in two directions and is characterized by good sunlight and ventilation.
On the 1st floor, the dining area and the living room are separated by a narrow wall, providing a relaxing space for close communication between family members.
Since there are two Japanese-style rooms and a Western-style room on the 2nd floor, a master bedroom and a children's room can be secured, while the other room can be used in various ways according to the growth of the child and the lifestyle of each family member.
