Nestled along a historic street in Kanazawa, this Meiji-era townhouse stands as a testament to the area's rich commercial heritage. Originally serving as an antique shop, the property maintains its authentic earthen-floored ground level, reflecting its mercantile past. The residence is situated in a district known for its distinctive historical significance, where streets were once home to specialized workers who served the local feudal administration.
Located in a preserved district known as 'Komachinami,' the property offers modern convenience while retaining its historical charm. The area is within walking distance to essential amenities including a supermarket and major hospitals. While the structure requires comprehensive renovation, it presents versatile possibilities for modern living, commercial use, or potential conversion into accommodations, subject to local approval.
The traditional narrow, rectangular plot features a garden area that could be expanded by removing later Showa-era additions. Despite its historic status, the location offers practical modern living advantages, with parks, shopping, and healthcare facilities all within easy reach. This property presents an opportunity to be part of a carefully preserved historical neighborhood while enjoying the conveniences of contemporary urban life.
