About this property
Experience Taditional Japanese House! SUMIRE
Good access to Skytree shopping mall and Asakusa!
Convenienct location for tourists!
A 70 year old traditional Japanese townhouse located in well known downtown, Mukojima, Tokyo. The house belongs to my husband who spent his childhood there. We are university professors, and the house was too small for us to live with our three children and lots of books, so we have never lived there. After 30 years, I found it quite cool as it looked remaining very nostalgic, which brought me back to the nice and old days of Japan. Now it is very rare to find this kind in Tokyo.
The house was renovated nicely with its original taste. There are two bedrooms; one with a double bed and the other with two singles. The bedrooms on the second floor are floored with tatami mats. There are small but cozy living space and a kitchenette in the first floor. Bathroom with a bathtub and shower head. You will find the 'washlet' in WC.
Since the house was built right after WWII, everything is made small according to the Japanese people's frame at that time. If you are way taller than 6 feet, you may find it a bit close and uneasy.

About the area
Tokyo
Located in Sumida, a neighbourhood in Tokyo, this holiday home is near theme parks and on a river. Sensoji Temple and Tokyo Imperial Palace are notable landmarks, and travellers looking to shop may want to visit Tsukiji Outer Market and Toyosu Market. Check out an event or a game at Tokyo Dome, and consider making time for Ueno Zoo, a top attraction not to be missed. Power boating offers a great chance to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cycling nearby.

About the host
Hosted by Akiko & Hidemasa Yamamoto
I am a retired professor who took her degree from Columbia university in NYC long time ago.
Why they chose this property
Traditional outlook and modern equipments. Convenient to get to Akihabara, Ginza, Asakusa, Shibuya, Shinjuku, or even to Nikko. Bus stop right near the house and get to Asakusa by 10 mins. Less than 10 minutes walk to two major train stations.
What makes this property unique
Though it is located close to Asakusa, the major tourists attraction in Tokyo, Mukojima area is not polluted with commercial tourism.
Mukojima is an old and new town. Japan’s highest tower, Skytree is located in the center of town, where you can enjoy shopping and all kinds of attractions. If you walk along the Sumida River, you will be connected to Asakusa.
