Description
100-year old Machiya in the ancient Nishijin district!
Heritage Homes is pleased to offer this lovely, genuine Machiya, suitable both as a residence and holiday let, for sale in a charming and unspoilt part of central Kyoto.
Situated just a few minutes walk from both the 1,000-year old Kitano Temanggu Shrine and the world famous Kenkun Shrine (one of the four main Kyoto Shrines), this part of Kyoto is a favourite of ours; it’s very much old-style Kyoto, not overrun by tourists, yet has a bit of international flair; organic food shops, nice small coffee roasteries and Italian bistros, coexisting happily along traditional Izikayas and rice shops.
The Machiya itself is a classic 2 up – 2 down wooden house with a small courtyard, retaining all of its original charm. With a careful renovation, this will become a perfect home and / or holiday let for those seeking an inexpensive, genuine Kyoto experience. Guesthouses in the immediate area all have rave reviews about how lovely the area is, so you will also have the opportunity to run a solid airbnb business here.
