Property Overview

Discover a unique opportunity to own a traditional Japanese home in Yamashina, one of Kyoto’s most accessible and charming suburban districts. This 4-bedroom, 1-bathroom akiya (vacant house) offers the perfect blend of space, location, and potential—ideal for families, investors, or anyone ready to create their dream residence in Kyoto.

Location: Live Between City Life and Mountain Serenity

Yamashina Ward offers:

  • Close proximity to central Kyoto with the charm of a quieter residential district
  • Quick access to public transportation including Yamashina Station (JR, Subway, and Keihan lines)
  • A family-friendly environment with parks, schools, grocery stores, and medical facilities
  • Nature-rich surroundings with walking trails, temples, and mountain views

Perfect for commuters, nature lovers, and anyone looking to live just outside the historic core of Kyoto.

Interior Highlights: Roomy Layout with Renovation Potential

  • Four spacious bedrooms, ideal for families, home offices, or guest use
  • Bright living and dining areas with large windows and natural light
  • Traditional touches throughout, offering character and charm
  • A functional kitchen and bathroom that serve as a great base for modernization
  • Solid structure with the flexibility to customize and upgrade

Whether you’re planning a full renovation or a simple refresh, the layout and space allow for creative possibilities.

Outdoor Environment & Community Perks

  • Set in a quiet residential street with a strong neighborhood feel
  • Short walk to parks, temples, shops, and cafés
  • Enjoy weekend hikes or morning walks in the nearby Higashiyama hills
  • Peaceful yet conveniently connected to Kyoto Station and downtown

Why This Property Stands Out

  • Rare 4-bedroom akiya in Kyoto city limits
  • Strong renovation potential with resale or rental appeal
  • Walkable to public transport and amenities
  • Ideal for first-time akiya buyers, families, or long-term investors

"The Old House Japan team is top notch. We acquired a house in Otaru outside of Sapporo with their help. They did a great job at removing the anxiety that comes with acquiring a property from outside of the US."
