Renovated Kyomachiya Amid Kyoto’s Natural Beauty

The charm of Shimogamo Demachiyanagi, a neighborhood that blends Kyoto’s timeless atmosphere with abundant nature.
While conveniently close to the city center, Shimogamo Demachiyanagi remains surrounded by greenery, framed by the Kamo and Takano rivers with the mountains beyond - an area long celebrated for its picturesque scenery.
At the confluence of the two rivers, the Kamo River Delta opens into a bright and spacious riverside park, perfect for walks and seasonal enjoyment throughout the year.
This property is not only ideal as a residence, but also as a second home.
PLAN
With its 4LDK layout, the home offers a comfortable size suitable for a wide range of lifestyles, from couples to families.
Fully renovated in 2008, the interiors have been well cared for and remain in excellent condition.
The 2nd floor is filled with natural light, creating a bright and airy space for comfortable living.
The property also lends itself well to use as an income-generating investment.
On the 1st floor, a generous living-dining area opens to the garden, where you can relax while enjoying the view.
The terrace extends your living outdoors - perfect for sunbathing, gardening, or simply unwinding in the fresh air.

AREA
The Demachiyanagi area, where the Kamo and Takano rivers meet, offers a living environment rich in nature and tranquility.
The riverbanks invite leisurely strolls with ever-changing seasonal scenery, including the vibrant cherry blossoms that line the embankments each spring.
Just a short walk away lies the UNESCO World Heritage Site Shimogamo Shrine and its sacred Tadasu-no-Mori forest, where quietude and spiritual beauty envelop visitors.
The neighborhood is also dotted with long-established local shops, independent bookstores, cozy cafes, and bakeries, adding small discoveries and delights to daily life.
With easy access to multiple transportation lines - Keihan Railway, Eizan Electric Railway, and city buses - traveling to central Kyoto or even Osaka is simple and convenient.
Everyday needs are well met with nearby supermarkets and shopping facilities. Here, in a community where nature and urban amenities harmonize seamlessly, you can enjoy a relaxed yet connected lifestyle in Kyoto.
