Description
A Hidden Retreat in the Heart of Kyoto – Partially Renovated Machiya in Okazaki
Tucked away at the end of a gently descending path, this charming Kyoto Machiya offers a quiet escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. Thoughtfully renovated, the ground floor features essential living spaces—kitchen, dining room, bathroom, and washroom—while the upper floor is ideal as a private hideaway for hobbies, work, or rest.
Original wooden features and traditional Japanese design elements remain, preserving the warm character of the past. The two 4.5-tatami mat rooms upstairs are perfect for a bedroom and a creative space. Customize the water facilities such as the kitchen and washroom to suit your lifestyle.
Located between central Kyoto and the serene Higashiyama area, this home is steps away from cultural landmarks like Heian Jingu Shrine, Nanzen-ji Temple, and Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art, the National Museum of Modern Art. Enjoy art, music, craft, and Kyoto’s stunning seasonal scenery—all within walking distance.
Renovation required; some original beams and pillars can be reused.
