Historic Machiya Guest House Steps from Higashiyama Station
The interior was renovated in January 2025, featuring a newly installed kitchen, replaced wallpaper, and new air conditioning units, creating a comfortable and move-in-ready space. All furniture is included. Please note that to continue operating it as a lodging facility, the new owner will need to reapply for an inn business license under their own name or inherit the existing business. The sale is conducted on an "as-is" basis.
The area is a fascinating blend of old and new, situated near the heart of Kyoto's history and culture. The popular strolling spot, Shirakawa Canal, is nearby, allowing residents to enjoy the rich greenery of the Higashiyama mountains. The neighborhood is lined with atmospheric shops retaining the charm of old townhouses, and a short walk will take you to famous sights like Heian Jingu Shrine and Nanzen-ji Temple. The area also features newer attractions like the renovated Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art and the sophisticated restaurant LURRA°, creating a dynamic mix of traditional and contemporary tourism spots.
