Exclusive Listing · Japan
A fully renovated traditional timber townhouse of about 116 square metres on a corner lot with a garden and underfloor heating.
This is a large traditional timber townhouse in the north of Kyoto, away from the busiest tourist streets. It has two storeys above ground and about 116 square metres of building area on a corner lot of about 118 square metres. The house dates from 1946, and a complete renovation in July 2017 covered the plumbing, the exterior and underfloor heating. A river scenic area is about five minutes on foot and a subway station about four minutes, so it suits a buyer who wants traditional form with updated services.
Why This Opportunity
The listing records a complete renovation in July 2017 including plumbing, the exterior and underfloor heating, so the services are far newer than the 1946 date of the house.
The house stands on a corner plot of about 118 square metres facing greenery, which gives it a more open outlook than a mid-terrace townhouse.
A station on the Karasuma Subway Line is about a four-minute walk away, giving a direct link into central Kyoto.
The low-rise residential zone sits within a scenic preservation district, with ratios of 60 per cent coverage and 100 per cent floor area.
A river scenic area is about five minutes away on foot, which suits a buyer who wants green space close to a city house.
With about 116 square metres of building area over two storeys, the house is a large example of the type, laid out as 2LDK plus garden.
