Funaokayama is home to Kenkun Shrine, dedicated to Oda Nobunaga, one of the most influential feudal warlords in Japanese history and a key figure in the unification of Japan during the 16th century. Long cherished for its quiet beauty and gentle atmosphere, the area around the mountain has developed into a peaceful residential neighborhood.

This unique machiya blends traditional Japanese architecture with playful Western influences, featuring charming bay windows and distinctive interior details such as an original tokobashira (alcove pillar). The design reflects a sense of character and individuality rarely found in standard townhouses.
