Historic Kyoto Machiya for Commercial Use in Kamigyo Ward

Key equipment and features include separate bath and toilet facilities, a toilet in the private area, storage space, a washing machine placement area, hot water supply, and city gas. The lease is a fixed-term tenancy agreement with a 10-year contract period. The renewal fee is one month's rent plus tax, and there is a renewal administrative fee of 100,000 yen plus tax. Fire insurance and a guarantee company are mandatory. The initial guarantee fee is 1 to 1.5 months of the total monthly rent (tax included), with an annual guarantee commission fee of either zero or 10% of the total monthly rent. Neighborhood association fees are the tenant's responsibility. The transaction is handled as an intermediary, meaning an agency commission fee is required upon contract signing.

The surrounding Kamigyo Ward is one of Kyoto's most historic districts, home to the former Imperial Palace and numerous shrines. An interesting local fact is that the area was traditionally known for its high concentration of samurai residences during the Edo period. The property is also conveniently located near the scenic Kamo River and the famous Shimogamo Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage site, offering a peaceful retreat from the city bustle.
