Full description

Originally a restaurant in a fishing village. A house with remaining traces of a small loft private room and display window for creating a community space / In the fishing village with its maze-like narrow alleyways, creating a community space where fishermen and newcomers can gather to bring vitality back to the settlement. This was once a place with many residents and restaurants, but due to population decline and aging, vacant houses have increased recently. With an eating-in space, various generations, elderly neighbors and fishing tourists, could gather together. This property also has a kitchen and toilet on the 2nd floor, making it possible to separate the community space and residential space / (Note) This article represents ideas for using the empty house based on the imagination of Musubi-me Co-working, and does not promise the actual use of the property.
