Kansai · 京都
Nowhere is a machiya more coveted — or more demanding — than Kyoto. These lattice-fronted wooden townhouses require constant, knowledgeable care, and Kyoto's preservation rules add another layer. MonoHaus manages Kyoto property for international owners with the craftsmanship these homes deserve.
From a Gion machiya to a Higashiyama residence, we coordinate traditional carpenters, manage seasonal upkeep, navigate the city's landscape and preservation ordinances, and report to you in English every month.
Kyoto's ordinances shape what you can change. We keep renovations compliant and protect the property's heritage value.
Earthen walls, sliding shoji, timber frames — we use craftsmen who specialise in traditional Kyoto construction.
Tell us about it and we'll send a personalized care plan within 48 hours — in English, from a team that knows Kyoto.
