Kumihama Kominka: A Traditional House with Expansive Grounds in Kyoto's Coastal Scenic Area
This traditional Kominka house is located on the east side of the beautiful Kumihama Bay, a lagoon separated from the Sea of Japan by a sandbank. The property includes the main house along with three additional buildings: a warehouse, a kura (traditional storehouse), and a garage, plus a small home gardening space. The house is already in livable condition. A key note from the agent is that currently only a pit toilet is available, but a septic tank can be installed.
The property offers substantial space with a land size of 689.79 square meters and a total floor area of 199.83 square meters. The location at 787 Kumihamacho Ooi, Kyotango city, Kyoto Prefecture, places it just a quick 5-minute drive from Shotenkyo train station. The area is renowned for its beautiful coastline, attracting many visitors who come to enjoy the beach and swim during the summer months. It is also famous for its fresh and delicious crabs and oysters.
