Leven Kyoto Kawaramachi Gojo ONESUITE: Premier Resilient Residential Development in Historic Kyoto
Leven Kyoto Kawaramachi Gojo ONESUITE represents a major new residential development in Kyoto's Shimogyo Ward, comprising 186 units across an 11-story reinforced concrete structure. The project exemplifies sustainable, resilient urban living through comprehensive disaster preparedness and modern amenities designed for contemporary living standards.
Positioned at the cultural heart of Kyoto, the development sits just 4 minutes walk from Kyoto Municipal Subway Karasuma Line's Gojo Station (Exit 3) and 6 minutes from Keihan Main Line's Kiyomizu-Gojo Station (Exit 1). The location provides exceptional pedestrian access to the historic Higashiyama district, with Kiyomizu-dera Temple and other major tourist attractions within walking distance, while major shopping centers including Daimaru Kyoto and Takashimaya are easily accessible.
The current sales phase offers units ranging from 50.68㎡ to 81.50㎡ in flexible 1LDK to 2LDK+F configurations, priced from 51,980,000 to 89,880,000 yen. Planned Phase 3 units, with sales details to be announced, are estimated between 51,000,000 and 109,000,000 yen. Applications are currently being accepted at Takara-Leven's Kyoto Style Salon. Note that Phase 3 unit sales are not yet finalized; this overview covers planned Phase 3 onwards units (40 units), with specific sales numbers and pricing to be confirmed in official advertisements.
Comprehensive financing is available through Kansai Mirai Bank. The payment example for an O-Type 2LDK unit (2nd floor, 59,980,000 yen) illustrates flexible terms: 80,000 yen down payment, monthly payments of approximately 99,987 yen (covering 41,100,000 yen principal), plus twice-yearly bonus payments of 274,804 yen (covering 18,800,000 yen principal) over a 40-year repayment period at a promotional variable interest rate of 0.795% (post-discount). Loan fees are 2.2% of the borrowed amount. Applicants must provide a personal seal, income documentation for the past two years, and identification. Internal company review is required. All applications are first-come-first-served; units sold are not available. Financing conditions as of October 2025 are subject to change; actual interest rates are determined at loan initiation based on financial conditions. Financing requires approval from partner financial institutions and designated guarantee companies; terms vary by customer and financing may not be available for all applicants.
The development emphasizes resilience through comprehensive disaster preparedness infrastructure. The 11-story structure utilizes rigid frame construction, allowing flexible interior layouts, with double-reinforced concrete walls providing enhanced earthquake resistance. Emergency resilience is ensured via rooftop solar panels and battery storage systems powering common areas during disruptions. A dedicated disaster preparedness storage room and disaster kits are provided for residents.
Units feature premium amenities including glass-top gas cooktops with dual burners offering temperature control, quiet stainless steel sinks, enamel kitchen panels for easy maintenance, built-in dishwashers, mist-sauna equipped bathroom ventilation-heating-drying systems, low-step bathtubs, three-panel mirrors with rear storage, single-lever water taps with extendable shower heads, tankless toilets, and gas water floor heating systems. High-efficiency gas water heaters (Eco Joze) minimize consumption. Balcony and terrace areas range from 2.82㎡ to 9.12㎡ depending on unit type. J:COMNET optical internet (up to 1Gbps) is standard. Monthly management fees range from 12,670 to 21,260 yen with reserve contributions of 5,070 to 8,500 yen monthly, plus a one-time management setup fee at delivery.
Common facilities include a guest room for welcoming visitors with en-suite facilities, a comprehensive fitness room, a golf simulation facility, and a multi-purpose entertainment space with karaoke and theater systems. An accessible rooftop terrace offers outdoor recreation. Twenty-one parking spaces (including accessible and service parking) are available at 27,000-29,000 yen monthly, with additional bicycle parking and motorcycle spaces.
