A Spacious Family Home in Kyoto's Serene Nishikyo Ward
This property presents a substantial single-family home located in the peaceful residential area of Ooe Kitakutsukakecho, Nishikyo Ward, Kyoto. Built in October 1992, the steel-framed structure spans three stories and offers a generous total floor area of 107.55 square meters (approximately 32.53 tsubo), arranged in a comfortable 3LDK layout. The home sits on a sizable plot of land measuring 220.25 square meters (about 66.62 tsubo), providing ample outdoor space and privacy.
According to the agent's notes, the property is part of the "Katsurazaka Kutsukake 'Stage 19'" management association, which entails a monthly fee of 2,000 yen. A critical detail is that the land includes a sloped section of approximately 144 square meters, which is factored into the total land area. The property is situated within a City Planning Area designated as a Category I Low-Rise Exclusive Residential Zone, with a building-to-land ratio of 50% and a floor area ratio of 80%. It is currently vacant and ready for immediate handover.
The location offers a quiet lifestyle while maintaining accessibility. The nearest major transport hub is Hankyu Railway's Kyoto Line "Katsura" Station, from which a 28-minute bus ride followed by a 3-minute walk brings you home. The area of Nishikyo Ward is known for its blend of suburban calm and cultural proximity to central Kyoto. An interesting local fact is that the ward is home to the famous Saiho-ji Temple, also known as Kokedera or the "Moss Temple," a UNESCO World Heritage site renowned for its stunning, serene moss garden that requires advance reservation to visit.
