松延家住宅

The Matsunobu House features separate areas for living quarters and earthen floor spaces, with plastered walls and tiled roofing throughout the structure.

Built in the mid-19th century, this property operated as a commercial establishment trading paper and tea along the secondary route between Kurume and Kumamoto.

The interior layout reflects the merchant class lifestyle with distinct areas including a shop space, Buddhist altar room, and formal reception rooms.

The building measures 13 meters in depth, with widths of 8 meters for the earthen floor section and 10 meters for the residential portion.

The second floor of the Matsunobu House serves exclusively as storage space and remains closed to public access.
