Residence and Shop Building on Shirakawa St.

Commercial & Residential Use
Stylish Brick Building on Shirakawa St.
This eye-catching steel-frame building with a brick facade stands along Shirakawa-dori, featuring three stories above ground and a basement level.
The building’s split-level layout and open atrium design allow natural light to filter through multiple floors, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere.
This property offers great flexibility: consider it as a rental income property, a combined shop and residence, or partial owner-occupancy with a rental unit - depending on your investment or lifestyle goals.
AREA
To the west lies Mt. Yoshida, home to Yoshida Shrine, famous as the birthplace of Setsubun purification rituals.
To the east, the Shirakawa Canal flows alongside the Philosopher’s Path, offering an escape into Kyoto’s natural beauty.
Nearby is Ginkakuji Temple (the Silver Pavilion), a renowned historical site, and the area is known not only for its scenic charm especially in spring and autumn, but also for its lively atmosphere with many unique, independently owned shops and cafes.

PLAN
The split-level layout divides the living-dining-kitchen area and bedroom on the second and third floors with a central staircase, providing both separation and flow.
A striking atrium connects the upper floors to the ground floor, allowing light to pour down through the levels.
There is also an external staircase, enabling direct access to the entrances on the second and third floors - an added convenience for multi-use or rental scenarios.
