river stream, nature, and Kominka
Located at the western foot of Mount Hiei, north of Kyoto City,
Kamitakano is an area close to nature surrounded by mountains and the Takano River, one of the tributaries of the Kamo River, flowing nearby.
The area is dotted with peaceful residences and famous temples with a long history, spreading out at the foot of the majestic Mt. Hiei.
Although far from the hustle and bustle of the city, it is an easy place to live, just a 2-minute walk from Miyake-Hachiman Station on the Eizan Electric Railway line.
This is a one-storey old Kominka house with a garden surrounding it. While having the old taste of a Kominka, the house makes you fantasize about what kind of renovation to do. With nature close by where you can feel the changing of the seasons, you will be able to fully enjoy a life where time flows slowly.
A river stream runs through the site. In the garden, there is a pond with a river running through it, and you can feel the babbling of the water and the wind rustling through the trees, stimulating all five senses.
The earthen floor space spreads out as you enter the entrance. There are two entrances - where the one on the north side can be used as the front door.
A fascinating spacious garden that allows your imagination runs wild. How about a vegetable garden, a wooden deck, and a BBQ space? Not to mention a parking lot. The fence surrounding the property has been cleaned up by Hachise in Jan. 2023.
