370-year old Temple

This absolute stunning temple was built in 1652, the first year of the Edo Period. Located in Mihama-cho on the Chita Peninsula in the southern part of Aichi Prefecture, this old temple retains the appearance it had when it was built 372 years ago.

Heritage Homes is proud to present a totally unique, world class heritage building for sale, relocation and restoration, sold turnkey at a fixed price and assembled anywhere in Japan.

This temple and adjoining Abbot’s residence, totalling approximately 350sqm of floorspace, has been deconsecrated and is ready to be dismantled, restored, reconfigured as a residence and be shipped and re-assembled. The current conversion plan is to create a 2 or 3 bedroom residence, with the main section of the temple to be used as a huge living / dining space.

This totally unique, close to 400-year old property is not for everyone. It’s an ancient, hugely important cultural heritage building and it is only being sold turnkey, completely re-built and equipped by our own master temple carvers, to ensure the very best restoration and conversion anywhere in the world.
