### A Prewar Machiya Near Nijo Castle
An opportunity to restore a traditional Kyoto townhouse in a central and well-connected part of the city.
Set in Echigo-cho, Nakagyo Ward, the property is within walking distance of Nijojo-mae, Shijo-Omiya and Hankyu Omiya stations. Its three-way transport access makes it easy to reach both central Kyoto and the city’s western districts.
The two-storey terraced machiya has building records dating to 1924 and retains its traditional layout, including several tatami rooms and a small garden at the rear. The building has been left largely unchanged and requires a careful renovation, offering the opportunity to adapt it into a comfortable city residence or private Kyoto retreat.
The property is currently vacant and is being sold as-is. Its compact size and convenient Nakagyo location make it a practical renovation project for anyone looking to create a home in central Kyoto.
