Exclusive Listing · Japan
A 1933 timber townhouse with a garden, vacant and offered unrenovated, three minutes on foot from a station.
This is a traditional Kyoto timber townhouse of the kind that shaped the old city streets, offered in an unrenovated state. Built in 1933, it has two storeys above ground and a four-room layout with a garden, on a plot of about 125 square metres held in ownership with the building. A station is about a three-minute walk away, and the zoning is neighbourhood commercial. The listing states repairs are required before use, so it suits a buyer ready to plan a survey and a renovation budget.
Why This Opportunity
The listing places the house about a three-minute walk from a station, so central Kyoto is reachable on foot or by rail without a car.
The land right is stated as ownership, so the plot of about 125 square metres and the house on it are held outright rather than on a lease.
Built in 1933 on two floors with a four-room layout and a garden, the house keeps the traditional form that defines the older streets of Kyoto.
The zoning allows a mix of residential and small commercial use, which gives a buyer more room to decide how the house is eventually used.
The listing states the property is vacant and available on negotiable terms, so the purchase is not tied to an existing occupant.
The house needs repairs before use, which leaves the renovation scope, the finishes and the end use to the new owner.
