The "Japanese House" in Salem was built by Bunkio Matsuki about 1895. It is found at 12 Laurel Street in South Salem.

Although built in the craftsman style, it has touches of Japanese design elements. The design firm was Andrews, Jacques & Rantoul of Boston.

Large bronze lanterns adorned the gardens. Custom carved panels decorated the interior.
