Spacious 4LDK Family Home in Kyoto's Tranquil Nishikyo Ward
This well-maintained two-story wooden house, built in July 1983, offers a generous 4LDK layout with a total floor area of 79.48 square meters on a private 81.32 square meter plot. The property is currently vacant and ready for new occupants. The home features a spacious living-dining-kitchen area of approximately 12 tatami mats, providing an open and comfortable family space.
The property is equipped with a modern system kitchen featuring a counter and an IH cooktop. The bathroom includes a reheating function and a bath dryer for added convenience. Other notable interior features include a walk-in closet, storage in every room, a TV monitor-equipped door phone, and underfloor heating. The home is all-electric and incorporates barrier-free design elements for accessibility. It is south-facing and comes with a free parking space for one vehicle. Utilities include public water supply, city gas, and a sewer system.
According to the agent's notes, the property is located in the Katsuragi area of Kyoto's Nishikyo Ward, a 20-minute walk from Katsura Station on the Hankyu Kyoto Line. The area is noted for its relatively affordable and environmentally friendly city gas. A Yasaki bus stop, Katsuragi Tsukinomoto-cho, is a 3-minute walk away. The property falls under specific zoning regulations: it is in a Category I Low-Rise Exclusive Residential District, within a historical heritage-type beautification district and the Nishikyo Katsuragaiwai Landscape Improvement Area. Please note that the building coverage and floor area ratios exceed the standard limits. The western side of the property does not face a road. The registered land area is 108.4 square meters, which includes approximately 27.08 square meters of private road burden.
The surrounding Nishikyo Ward offers a peaceful residential atmosphere while maintaining good access to Kyoto's rich cultural tapestry. An interesting local fact is that the area is home to the Katsuragi region, known for its historical connections to ancient Japanese mythology and early settlement. The closest major tourist attraction is the stunning Arashiyama Bamboo Grove and the iconic Togetsukyo Bridge, a short train or bus ride away, offering one of Kyoto's most famous and serene scenic experiences.
