A quaint traditional Japanese townhouse turned artfully curated modern machiya, Zen Fuyacho is a home that perfectly showcases high-class Kyoto living. The 76-square-meter home is fitted with quality modern luxuries and comforts to provide an unforgettable stay in one of the country’s most exciting destinations.

From its distinctive noren (front door curtain) to its shoji style sliding paper doors to the hinoki (Japanese cedar) wooden bathtub that overlooks a quaint Japanese garden and tatami mat living room, every inch of this spacious four-person-capacity home is deeply connected to the culture and style of Japan.

Brightly colored feature walls dominate the house’s main rooms, like the living room and bedrooms, setting off bold contrasts and offering up a sense of playfulness and warmth. A mix of light and dark wooden beams frame the interior of the home, rooting the house in an atmosphere of organic strength.

The house is situated right in the center of the city and just a 25-minute walk from Kyoto Station and 10 minute walk from Gojo Station, making it an ideal home away from home for those wanting to make the most of Kyoto and its surrounding areas. It’s nestled in such a vibrant area that guests can head out on a stroll without planning and come across something interesting, including some of the best food & beverage operations that the town has to offer.
