A bicycle was parked in front of a well-kept old house

The area known as Yanesen (谷根千) in Tokyo still retains its old streets. It still retains the atmosphere of an old-fashioned downtown. As I wandered around the area, I came across an old house. In these days when most houses built in Tokyo are three stories high, the old house was a one-story building.

The windows of the house were equipped with wooden lattices. Not only were they well-maintained, but they were meticulously crafted, giving the house a taste that not only I, but everyone who passed by, would find interesting. I guess people still live in this house because bicycles are parked there. I don't know what kind of people live in this house, but they must be meticulous people.
