A Timeless Kyoto Machiya Steeped in the Spirit of Gosho-Minami

135M JPY

This is a pre-owned Kyomachiya house—one of Kyoto’s traditional kominka (historic wooden townhouses)—located in Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto City. Situated just south of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, this charming property stands in the highly sought-after Gosho-Minami area, one of Kyoto’s most desirable and culturally rich neighborhoods.
The house is within walking distance of both Marutamachi and Karasuma Oike subway stations, offering excellent access to transportation and the city’s key destinations.

This space was previously used as a greengrocer. The entire house had once functioned as a shop, revealing strong potential for future commercial use. Although the property currently requires renovation, it can be transformed into a unique residence, second home, or even a business such as a boutique, gallery, or office—making this kominka-style property both versatile and full of promise.

The second-floor room was formerly used as an office.
The house features a classic Kyomachiya layout—narrow and deep, often called a “eel bed” shape (Unagi-no-nedoko)—which offers ample flexibility for creative renovation.
Whether you're envisioning a peaceful retreat or a stylish urban residence, this traditional house is ready to be shaped to your needs.
