This house was originally built during the Taisho period and has a history of more than 100 years. Located on Kiyomizu-cho, just one street away from Yasaka Shrine, it is within walking distance of famous attractions such as Ishibei Koji, Sannenzaka, Ninenzaka, Kodaiji Temple, etc.
The most representative building in Kyoto is Kyomachiya, and among Kyomachiya, "Sukiya" is the most precious. In order to preserve the historical and cultural value of the house, it was fully renovated in 2017, based on the restoration of the original appearance. It is open to the public in the form of a homestay.
Located in the heart of Higashiyama, you can walk to popular attractions such as Kiyomizu Temple, Yasaka Shrine, Hanami Koji, Kenninji Temple, etc., or enjoy a quiet afternoon in Kyoto, such as Maruyama Park, Kamo River, Kitashirakawa River, etc.
Of course, transportation is also very convenient nearby, the Keihan Electric Railway goes directly to Osaka Kyobashi, and the Karasuma subway line goes directly to Kyoto Station.

The space
The house is a traditional two-story wooden building.
Entering the entrance hall on the ground floor, it is the kitchen, living room, western-style room and bathroom. The bathroom faces the inner courtyard, so you can enjoy the view while taking a bath.
As soon as you enter the entrance hall, you can also access the stairs and go up to the 2nd floor. The second floor has two rooms in a row, with floor-to-ceiling windows that can absorb as much natural light as possible to illuminate the interior, and you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery through the interior.
Of course, outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a small open-air balcony, where you can relax in the afternoon.
