Spacious Family Home in Nara's Historic District
This 5LDK house in Nara City's Horen-cho neighborhood offers 119.69㎡ of living space across two floors, built in 1984 with light steel construction. The property includes a 180.54㎡ land plot and parking for two vehicles, situated in a quiet residential area just 17 minutes on foot from Kintetsu Nara Station.
The surrounding Horen-cho district preserves traditional Nara architecture, with several streets designated under the Ancient Capitals Preservation Act. Less than 1km away lies the Nara National Museum, housing Japan's premier collection of Buddhist art. An interesting local feature is the neighborhood's underground irrigation system - a 300-year-old network of channels still used to water gardens and prevent summer heat buildup.
Major landmark Todai-ji Temple, home to the Great Buddha statue, is a 25-minute walk or short bus ride from the property. The area combines convenient access to Nara Park's cultural sites with the relaxed pace of a mature residential community.
