Vérité Moto-Gosho Nijojo: A New Chapter in Kyoto's Historic Heart
The property features a design where all units are corner residences, creating bright, open living spaces with excellent natural light and ventilation. The interior corridor design not only shields from external views for enhanced privacy but also contributes to a quiet, calm, and hotel-like quality of daily life. The development comprises 26 units across a 7-story reinforced concrete structure, with unit sizes ranging from approximately 60.14 sqm to 72.79 sqm. Layouts include 2LDK+WIC and 2LDK+S+WIC+SIC configurations. Each unit features a balcony, with some including service balconies, terraces, or private gardens. The building is already completed as of February 2025, with occupancy available from early April 2026.

The surrounding area of Kamigyo Ward is steeped in history, once home to aristocrats and samurai residences. A fascinating local fact is that the neighborhood's name "Nakatsukasacho" hints at its historical administrative significance. The closest major landmark is the magnificent Nijo Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and former residence of the Tokugawa shoguns, located just a short distance away, offering a direct connection to Japan's feudal past.
