京を駆ける、 私の拠点。
The Gateway to Life with a Car
Whether for long drives or quick shopping trips,
a single car opens up new freedoms in everyday Kyoto life.
Here, in a calm and quiet residential neighborhood a short distance from the station,
a generous six-meter-wide road out front ensures a smooth and comfortable daily routine with your car.
Workdays, weekends, everyday moments - enjoy them all at your own pace.
This is where a new way of living with Kyoto begins.

Drive Base Kyoto｜A small base for family and car life
This proposal envisions a compact home designed around car life for a family.
The 1st floor features a built-in garage - not only protecting your car but also creating a living space where you can admire it from indoors. When the garage is empty, the earthen floor can double as a workspace.
Despite the compact floor area, the plan accommodates a family of 4 comfortably:
on the 2nd floor, a master bedroom, 2 children’s rooms, and a family closet are all included, with attention given to practical flow in daily life.
A base that connects city and nature, ordinary and extraordinary, through car life.
From here, you can design a new way of living in Kyoto.
※This property is not being sold with a renovation condition.
current floor plan
Situated in a quiet residential area of Murasakino, Kita Ward, this 6K Machiya offers a practical layout with depth.
The 1st floor features 4 rooms aligned lengthwise, alongside a traditional entrance space, passage garden, and bath area. On the 2nd floor, one room faces south and another north, keeping private and shared spaces distinct.
The house is older and currently requires renovation, but this gives flexibility to redesign the layout and interiors freely.
By converting the front portion of the 1st floor into a garage, the six-meter-wide street frontage allows for convenient integration of car life.
Whether as a main residence, second home, or weekend retreat, this property holds potential for a variety of lifestyles. Its calm setting away from the station offers an ideal base for enjoying life at your own pace, away from the city bustle.

Area Map
The Murasakino neighborhood of Kita Ward offers a balance of tranquility and convenience. The six-meter-wide front road provides ease for car access and parking.
Though slightly removed from the city center, having a car greatly expands your range of activities - from downtown to the scenic Kamigamo and Takagamine areas, weekend drives are always within reach.
Kuramaguchi Subway Station is about a 9-minute walk away, and the Kitanooji Horikawa bus stop just 3 minutes on foot, making it easy to rely on public transportation as well.
Supermarkets and local shops are scattered nearby, ensuring daily needs are covered. With schools and the ward office close at hand, the area provides peace of mind for residents.
