Traditional Former Confectionery Shop in Hamamatsu's Rural Tenryu District
This single-story wooden house, with a steel sheet roof, is situated along an old roadway that branches off from a prefectural road in the Kumakiri area of Hamamatsu City's Tenryu District, Shizuoka Prefecture. Originally operating as a confectionery shop, this traditional kominka (old private house) has undergone several expansions and renovations over the years, with its interior completely remodeled eight years ago. The property is now ready for immediate occupancy.
The home features a spacious 10-tatami mat doma (earthen floor area), along with four additional rooms, a dining-kitchen (DK) space, and two 8-tatami mat attic rooms accessible via stairs. This layout provides ample living space. A small stream with a reinforced bank flows along the eastern side of the land, beyond which lies the site of the former Kumakiri Elementary School, which has been closed. There is no parking space on the property, but one parking spot is currently being rented at a nearby location.
The surrounding area is the core of the former Kumakiri village. While many of the local shops and inns have closed their doors, the old streetscape, lined with historic buildings, evokes a sense of stepping back in time. Road access is good, and it takes approximately 30 minutes to reach the urban area of Tenryu-ku. Access is via National Route 362 from the Yamasato intersection in Tenryu-ku, traveling about 18 km. Turn right at the 'Kawachi' signal and proceed approximately 5 km (7-8 minutes) along a single-lane prefectural road that follows the Kumakiri River. The property is also about 2 minutes on foot from the Kumakirikyoku bus stop on the Haruno Fureai Bus line. The property is being sold directly by the agency, so no brokerage fee is required.
