Kaneyasu Minka
Kyoto City, Kyoto Pref.
This is an old traditional townhouse with a weathered, silvery facade that exudes character gained over the years. The roof eaves and latticework are unique, and the old wooden doors have a deep charm. Though situated in the city center, it lies within a narrow alley, allowing you to enjoy the quiet, quintessential atmosphere of Kyoto. The exact year of construction is unknown, but based on its location, structure, and layout, it appears to be in the lineage of traditional Kyo-machiya. While renovations are necessary, this property's highly convenient location makes it an excellent candidate for use as a sightseeing base or a second home. It takes only a 7 minutes walk to subway Imadegawa station and the Kyoto Imperial Palace.
