Charming 3DK House in Kyoto's Cultural Heart, Heian Jingu West
This detached house, located in the prestigious Okazaki district of Sakyo Ward, Kyoto, offers a unique lifestyle opportunity. The property is situated just 220 meters from the grounds of Heian Jingu Shrine, placing you in the center of Kyoto's premier cultural zone. The surrounding Okazaki Park area provides a wealth of amenities that feel like an extension of your own home, including museums, theaters, and scenic walking paths along the Lake Biwa Canal.
The building was renovated in 2017, both externally and internally, and has been carefully maintained as a lodging facility since then. The first floor features a kitchen, a Japanese-style room with a sunken kotatsu (horigotatsu), and bathroom facilities. The washroom area opens onto a small courtyard garden (tsuboniwa), which can also be viewed from the bath. The spacious bathroom is equipped with a reheating function, bathroom heater, and a dryer. The second floor contains two rooms: one Japanese-style and one Western-style. From the window of the Japanese-style room, you can enjoy the borrowed scenery (shakkei) of the garden of the company across the street. All rooms are equipped with air conditioning, and storage space is provided, making the layout comfortable for families.
The property is a 2-story wooden structure built in May 1982, with a total floor area of 52.40 square meters. It is a 3DK layout. The location is highly convenient, being an 8-minute walk from Jingu-Marutamachi Station on the Keihan Railway, and a 13-minute walk from Higashiyama Station on the Subway Tozai Line. The neighborhood is quiet and residential, yet offers easy access to the bustling Shijo-Kawaramachi area just two train stops away.
