Posted in: Giving back: Recycling abandoned homes in rural Japan See in context
The problem in Japan, as with many other countries, is that the beautiful old houses are over there, but the people are over here! In Sweden, the lovely old houses are in northern Lappland but the people live around Stockholm, 1,500 km south!
So we just move the houses, and that’s what we do in Japan as well, at www.HeritageHomesJapan.com
we dismantle the ‘kominkas’, restore the beayold hardwood beams, columns, flooring etc, ship it to wher the customer is, and re-build it, using proper insulation, modern kitchens & bathrooms, triple glazed windows etc.
if you love Japanese old Japanese farmhouses but don’t want to live miles from nowhere, this is the way to go.
