Spacious Detached Home in Kyoto's Historic Sakyo Ward
This substantial detached house, built in December 1991, offers generous living space in the desirable Sakyo Ward of Kyoto. The property features a 5LDK layout across two stories, providing a total floor area of 224.09 sqm (approximately 67.78 tsubo) on a sizable plot of land measuring 261.64 sqm (approximately 79.14 tsubo). The wooden structure is situated within a City Planning Area designated as a Category I Low-Rise Exclusive Residential District, ensuring a quiet residential environment.
Critical details from the agent notes include the road access situation: the property is on a corner lot. To the north, a 3.2-meter wide public road fronts the property for 12.2 meters. To the east, a 6-meter wide public road fronts the property for 20.7 meters. Special notes also indicate that parking is available free of charge, but a setback of 4.50 sqm is required.
The property is currently vacant, presenting a move-in-ready opportunity. It is located within walking distance of both the Kyoto Municipal Subway Karasuma Line's Matsugasaki Station (19 minutes) and the Eizan Railway's Mototanaka Station (22 minutes). The area is part of Kyoto's storied left bank, known for its blend of traditional atmosphere and academic influence from nearby universities. A notable landmark in the vicinity is the Shimogamo Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage site nestled within the ancient Tadasu no Mori forest, offering serene walking paths and a deep connection to the city's history.
