Terraced Machiya 9 min. from Golden Pavilion

Kashiwano District with Preserved Kyomachiyas

The Kashiwano area, where this house is situated, has a tranquil ambiance with the remaining Machiyas, a testament to the flourishing Nishijin textile industry during the Taisho period. Here we presented this Kyomahchiya sitting among the row of 4 connected townhouses.

AREA

Close to historical landmarks such as the Golden Pavilion (Kinkakuji Temple), Kitano Tenmangu Temple, and Daitokuji Temple, this location allows residents to immerse themselves in Kyoto's rich history. From the nearby Funayama Square, you can witness the famous Gozan-no-Okuribi (Mountain Bonfires) in the summer.

While the narrow roads and minimal traffic make it a safe area for children, proximity to elementary schools and nurseries also makes it an ideal residence for families. Buses along Senbon Street and Nishi-Oji Street circulate through Kyoto, providing easy access to Kyoto Station and the central area of Shijo-Kawaramachi without transfers.

PLAN

The south-facing alley in front of the house ensures brightness in the rooms during the day. The original layout preserves the Machiya essence, with a kitchen located in the former garden area. There's a small garden at the back.

Perfect for couples seeking a second home or families with children, this building offers a compact and comfortable living space.
