Sennyuji, a tranquil haven with green surroundings

Nestled in the southern area of Higashiyama Ward, Sennyuji is a place where nature and convenience coexist harmoniously - surrounded by the greenery of rivers and mountains yet with excellent access to both JR and Keihan train lines. Tucked away in a quiet residential neighborhood just off the main road, this fully renovated retreat is a hidden gem.

At the end of a narrow staircase, you'll find a semi-underground library and an airy study, making this property the perfect hideaway for literary enthusiasts. The design incorporates traditional architectural elements, allowing you to enjoy a sense of nostalgia while living in a peaceful and serene modern space.

AREA

Located close to the mountains, Imakumano offers an opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the ever-changing beauty of Higashiyama’s four seasons. Here, you can feel the arrival of each season earlier than in the city, making it an ideal area for those who appreciate nature. Slightly removed from the hustle and bustle of urban life, this quiet and relaxed neighborhood is perfect for a peaceful lifestyle.

The area is also convenient; with the Imakumano Shopping Street which features a mix of traditional stores and modern supermarkets like Fresco, as well as the Kyoto First Red Cross Hospital within walking distance. With both JR and Keihan stations nearby, you can enjoy a serene life surrounded by nature without sacrificing accessibility.

It could also serve as a cozy play area for young children.
