Yosano, Kyoto

Two Huge Historic Houses in Kyoto for the Price of One… Just $160K 🌸

I came across this stunning house in Kyoto Prefecture, and it instantly became one of my favorites, it’s genuinely extraordinary. More than just a home, it’s a piece of local history that once powered the town’s textile industry. With 356㎡ of residential space, a 383㎡ workshop, and a vast 1,274㎡ plot, the potential here is remarkable.

The main residence, built in 1984, is a beautifully preserved wooden Japanese home reinforced for earthquakes in 2007. Its spacious 10DK layout blends tatami rooms, Western-style rooms, and a bright central dining kitchen, offering the openness of a true traditional estate.

To the south lies a serene dry landscape garden, the kind of peaceful corner that feels straight out of an old Kyoto postcard 🌿.

The property also offers multiple parking spaces, with water and sewer already connected. Beside the home stands the original 1971 steel-frame workshop, expanded twice during its active years creating mon crest designs. Though unused for years, its tall ceilings and wide open floor make it ideal for a guesthouse, art studio, café, or boutique inn. The possibilities are immense 🤍.
