Eiheiji, Fukui

Step Inside This 110-Year-Old Japanese Masterpiece ($370K) 🏯

Nestled at the foot of Mt. Washigatake in Fukui’s serene Eiheiji Town, this extraordinary 110-year-old kominka (traditional Japanese home) is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and cultural heritage. With over 313㎡ of living space and a vast 18,800㎡ estate that includes residential land, gardens, and mountain forest, this property offers both grandeur and tranquility.

Inside, you’ll find stunning zelkova pillars, pine log beams, and a breathtaking 4x4 bay entrance hall known as “Oi,” evoking the architectural dignity of Meiji-era Japan. The house includes several tatami rooms, a traditional veranda overlooking a pond, and even a two-story storehouse connected by a covered walkway.

In 2023, the home underwent extensive renovations: new double-glazed windows, a modern kitchen, stylish toilets, and beautifully refinished woodwork, while preserving the timeless aesthetic of natural materials and open-beam ceilings. The south-facing orientation floods the space with light, while the mountain breeze and sounds of nature make this the perfect countryside sanctuary 🌿.

This rare piece of history offers the chance to live surrounded by nature, culture, and craftsmanship, an authentic experience of Japan’s timeless beauty 🍁.
