rannisuta said: does the residence have 2 parts? i was under the impression that it consists of the 2 ‘houses’ in the picture – one more traditionally Japanese and one looking more “Western”.

@rannisuta, you’re right, it does have two parts. The modern part was added later by the same Hirano family who built the original house. I’ve added more photos: the two houses next to each other, the new house, the family name on the gate (平野 Hirano), and the street in front of the two houses.
