A short walk south from Tojiin Station leads to a quiet residential area where a Kyoto machiya stands serenely amidst its surroundings.

The facade is adorned with distinctive green tiles, their subdued hue offering a unique charm. This Machiya, with its harmonious blend of Japanese and Western styles, reflects its era while incorporating a touch of modernity in its westernized front design.

Step through the tiled entrance, and you’ll find a Western-style room with a striking decorative fireplace. Beyond that lies a Japanese-style room with a Tokonoma alcove, where the timeless beauty and tranquility of the space come alive.

Here, time seems to stand still.
Wrapped in quietude, it’s the perfect place to immerse yourself in your passions, whether knowledge or hobbies, for a truly indulgent experience.

The facade, with its absence of eaves and walls adorned in green tiles, immediately draws attention and evokes a sense of nostalgic charm.

Entering the house, you are greeted by a tiled entrance imbued with a nostalgic atmosphere. The slightly Western-style retro impression transitions seamlessly into the characteristic Torinwa aisle of a Machiya that remains preserved in the rear. Opening up the ceiling in the kitchen to restore the original Hibukuro skylight would be an excellent way to embrace its historical essence.
Next to the entrance is a Western-style room featuring an antique-inspired decorative fireplace, and adjoining it is a Japanese-style room with a Tokonoma alcove. Together, they form a chic and elegant space where Japanese and Western influences harmoniously intersect.

Upstairs, you’ll find a retro Western-style room and a Japanese-style room designed in the Shoin style. By incorporating Western furnishings with traditional Japanese elements, you can create a personalized and comfortable living space while honoring the charm of this historic home.

  1. Retro Green-Tile Facade
    The exterior features striking green tiles that exude retro charm, giving the house an initially Western impression. While maintaining the structure of a wooden Machiya, the front has a unique flat facade covered with tiles, creating a distinctive presence.
  2. Solid Tiled Entrance
    The entrance is characterized by large tiles that convey a sense of weight and durability. The floor tiles are practical and long-lasting, while brick tiles accent the walls. These elements, paired with the retro aesthetic, are features worth preserving during renovations.
  3. Decorative Fireplace in the Western-Style Room
    The first-floor Western-style room is highlighted by a decorative fireplace finished with green and reddish-brown brick-style tiles. This centerpiece pairs beautifully with antique furniture and vintage decor, creating a classical and serene atmosphere.
  4. Shoin-Style Japanese Room on the 2nd Floor
    The second-floor Japanese room features a Tokonoma alcove, with a Shoin window on the veranda wall. While the attached alcove has been simplified, it becomes a rich and tasteful space by displaying hanging scrolls or ornaments, enhancing the room’s traditional appeal.
