Tatsuwara Machiya
Fukuchiyama City, Kyoto Pref.
Tatsuwara, located on the outskirts of Fukuchiyama—a key strategic city connecting Kyoto with the San'in and Wakasa regions—is a rural area nestled in a mountain valley where traditional machiya townhouses still remain. This renovated machiya, displaying a refined appearance along the old street, is likely pre-war in origin, based on its structure, layout, and features like the tokonoma alcove. Another older renovated machiya is connected at the rear, making this a rare property with entrances on both the front and back—one facing the old street and the other facing a national road. Unique features include good rear-facing views and front space for parking and bicycles. The nearest terminal station, Fukuchiyama, is about 30 minutes away by bus or train, and around 15 minutes by car, making daily life convenient. Kyoto Station is reachable in just under two hours by either train or car.
