A south-facing courtyard, a Japanese maple and a living space filled with light. This G-House model home in Nagaokakyo connects the kitchen, pantry and laundry in a practical loop on the ground floor.
Eleven minutes by train to Shijo in central Kyoto, and twelve on foot to the station. This is G-House's first model home in the Kyoto area, in a quiet residential street in Nagaokakyo. The ground floor opens onto a courtyard. Kitchen, pantry, laundry, bath, washroom and closet connect in a full circle, so the housework stays on one floor. The courtyard is planted with a Japanese maple, and because the house faces south, autumn light reaches deep into the rooms.
Morning light enters the south-facing living room. Filtered through the momiji in the courtyard, it reaches a different depth in each season.
Central Kyoto is 11 minutes by train, and the station is a 12-minute walk. A quiet residential street with easy trains to both Kyoto and Osaka.
Kitchen to pantry to laundry to washroom to closet. The route is a loop, not a corridor, so no task ends in a dead end.
The upstairs balcony has high walls, so futons and laundry can be aired without being overlooked. The study opens straight onto it.
A single voice command dims the lights and turns the whole living-room wall into a screen. With no TV to place, you can arrange the furniture freely.
Life inside this home
A connected kitchen
The kitchen connects to the pantry and laundry in a loop on the ground floor. Review the floor plan alongside the photographs to understand the route.
Light beside the courtyard
A second view of the living room shows the open stair and windows. Ask about light, privacy and how the space feels at different times of day.
