Work while you wander.

Experience Coastal Japan

Welcome to Baymore House: A Portal from the SF Peninsula to the Boso Peninsula.

Located just one minute from the beach and 75 minutes by direct express from Tokyo Station, Baymore House in Isumi, Chiba is designed as a physical extension of the San Francisco Bay Area—a "Bay-more"—offering the space and stillness required for deep work and deeper rest.

In Japanese, the phonetic "Bei" (米) represents the United States, but the character itself signifies Rice. Here in Isumi—a region celebrated for its pristine rice harvests —we embrace this duality. Baymore House is where the spirit West meets the rhythmic, coastal soul of Japan.

A Minimalist Sanctuary for the Modern Nomad

At Baymore House, architecture is the focal point. In a world of clutter, we offer a 6DK (six rooms plus dining and kitchen) layout that prioritizes breathability and Japanese craftsmanship.

From the statement traditional rooms to the quiet precision of carefully jointed wooden corners, the house serves as a canvas for your thoughts.

The Traditional Suite

The heart of the home is our traditional washitsu. Featuring authentic tatami flooring and intricate ranma (transom) carvings, this space transitions seamlessly to a private yard. It is a room designed for the "blue hour"—that quiet moment between finishing a day of remote work and walking to the sea.

Curated Reflections

We believe the objects you touch should offer a sensory experience of Japanese heritage.

Tomiya Futons

Your rest is supported by history. Our futons were commissioned from Tomiya, a third-generation family of master makers in Yachimata, Chiba. Since the early Showa era, the Tomiya family has been hand-crafting sleep environments that breathe with the seasons.

Hagi-yaki Tea Service

We provide a curated tea set from Hagi (Yamaguchi-ken), the birthplace of our founder. Hagi-yaki is prized for its "seven changes"—the way the glaze subtly transforms over years of use. Each piece features the traditional kiri-koudai (notched foot), a mark of historical craftsmanship that invites you to slow down and savor the ritual.

Textile Heritage

The journey through Japan is as tactile as it is visual. At Baymore House, we select everyday items designed to ground you in your surroundings through touch and texture.

This basket features a partial lining of classic indigo patterned cotton—recalling traditional furoshiki and stencil patterns that have defined Japanese household style for centuries.

The Neighborhood: Your Ohara Oasis

Minutes from the Shore, Miles from the Noise

Located by Ohara Fishing Port, the Pacific isn't just a view; it is your backyard.

The Cove

A 1-minute stroll leads to a protected beach cove—ideal for sunrise walks and dipping your toes in the sea.

The Shrine

Take a meandering walk by the cove to the region’s highest point to visit the local Shinto shrine. Historically dedicated to bringing sailors safely home, it now serves as a place of panoramic reflection for those navigating modern journeys.

The Table

Isumi is a culinary destination. Experience fresh-off-the-boat seafood and the famous local rice that shares our name.

The Sea

Engage in olympic-class surfing at nearby Tsurigasaki or book a guided deep-sea fishing excursion from the local harbor.

The Path

Cycling Ohara and the Chiba coast is not just popular—it is considered one of the premier cycling destinations in Japan for those escaping the sprawl of Tokyo. The Boso Peninsula, where Ohara sits, is a magnet for cyclists and casual riders alike.
