A New Chapter in Cultural Preservation: 'Old Soma House Kazeno Heritage' Hotel Opening
In an exciting development for both investors and culture enthusiasts, the 'Old Soma House Kazeno Heritage' hotel is set to open its doors on March 1, 2026, in Hakodate, Japan. This historic property, a designated Important Cultural Property of Japan, is being preserved through the efforts of LEVECHY, a real estate crowdfunding service. Investments starting from just 10,000 yen make this an accessible venture into cultural heritage conservation.
Investment in History
The project is part of LEVECHY Fund No. 19, which is focused on preserving and managing the historic 'Old Soma House'. LEVECHY, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, is spearheaded by CEO Takashi Koshima. According to recent reports, over 360 million yen has been raised for this fund, greatly exceeding the initial target of 220 million yen.
A New Era for Old Soma House
The hotel, with its official name 'Old Soma House Kazeno Heritage', will be managed by Value Management, Inc. (VM), based in Osaka. The hotel will celebrate its grand opening under the 'Kazeno Heritage' brand, aimed at showcasing Japan's rich cultural assets while offering modern accommodations.
The design and decor, inspired by the traditional architecture of the Meiji period, will provide guests with a unique experience that highlights the historical significance of the property. Photo previews indicate a living space decorated with traditional Japanese folding screens, although the final designs may be subject to change.
Community Engagement
In addition to providing lodging in a cultural treasure, LEVECHY Fund No. 19 aims to engage the public in preservation activities, allowing individuals to invest in cultural heritage actively. Following the initial hotel opening, plans for Phase 2 of the project are set to be unveiled, further expanding on the themes of investment and preservation.
