A Spacious 6LDK Home in Kyoto's Tranquil Left Bank
This property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial 6LDK (six living-dining-kitchen) detached house in the desirable Sakyo Ward of Kyoto. Built in February 1974, this two-story wooden home offers a generous total floor area of 152.76 square meters (approximately 46.2 tsubo) on a sizable plot of 204.40 square meters (approximately 61.83 tsubo). The property is currently vacant and ready for viewing.
The home is equipped with a comprehensive range of modern amenities. The kitchen features a system kitchen with a counter and an IH cooktop. The bathroom includes a reheating function for the bath and a bathroom dryer. The washbasin vanity has a shower attachment, and the toilet is fitted with a bidet seat. Inside, the property boasts a walk-in closet, storage in all rooms, a TV monitor-equipped door phone, and underfloor heating. Key features of the home include an all-electric system, barrier-free design, a south-facing orientation, and a free parking space.
According to agent notes, the property is located within a 10-meter height restriction area, a scenic beauty preservation district (3rd category), and a land readjustment project regulation zone. The minimum lot size for the area is 100 square meters. It is also within an outdoor advertising regulation zone (2nd category) and a sediment disaster special warning zone. Importantly, the water fixtures (kitchen, bath, toilet) were all renewed in three phases in August 2022, 2024, and 2025, and some wallpaper and flooring have been replaced. The property includes a shared mountain forest of 1,075 square meters (with a 1/2 ownership share) and an附属建物 (outbuilding/garage) of approximately 21.22 square meters.
The location offers excellent convenience, being just a 5-minute walk from the Eizan Railway's Miyakehachimangu Station. The area is served by public water, city gas, and sewer systems. The surrounding neighborhood provides daily necessities, with a drugstore and a bank branch also within a short walk.
Sakyo Ward is known for its lush greenery, historic temples, and academic atmosphere, being home to several university campuses. An interesting local fact is that the ward contains parts of the Daimonji-yama, the mountain famously used for the Daimonji Bonfire during the Obon festival in August. The closest major landmark is the historic and serene Shimogamo Shrine (a UNESCO World Heritage site), which is a short drive or bicycle ride away, nestled at the confluence of the Kamo and Takano rivers.
