Hota Kominka
Kawanishi Town, Nara Pref.
This unique property consists of a grand Kominka house and an equally impressive Kura storage building (5 connected together), connected by an elegant engawa corridor overlooking a serene Japanese garden. Dating back to the 19th century or earlier, the property preserves the charm of a prosperous farmer's home while offering modern comforts, thanks to a complete renovation done in the summer of 2024. A standout feature is the beautifully recreated traditional Goemon bath, adding to its authentic character. There are two sets of bathroom and toilets inside the house. Located in the peaceful village of Hota in Nara, the property is conveniently close to the world’s oldest wooden structure, Horyu-ji Temple. The center of Nara and Osaka is a quick 40-minute drive away, while Kansai International Airport can be reached in about an hour.
