Unique architecture
Known as an “eel’s sleeping place”, the layout of this type of machiya house is long and narrow, allowing you to discover more as you move further into the house.
'Kudo' kitchen
Traditionally, the front ‘kudo’ area was both an entranceway and kitchen, allowing you to enter with your shoes on. This allows the inside to seamlessly blend into the outside environment.
Traditional living room
This warm and serene room with a distinctive ceiling highlights intricate Japanese woodwork. Look up to see a variety of materials including a large beam and wooden wickerwork pattern. 
Inner garden
From the living room, gaze out onto the quaint ‘tsuboniwa’ inner garden. The traditional water fountain, Japanese moss and lush greenery bring nature and calm into the house.
Beautiful bathroom
Walk through the garden to a modern bathroom with a stone bathtub and shower. Traditional machiyas of this style often have the bathroom situated at the back of the house.
Japanese bedroom
This traditional room on the 2nd floor has ‘otafuku’ windows that give you a picturesque view of the gentle Shirakawa River below.
