This museum of sorts is located near to Mukougaoka-yuen station on the Odakyu line. It takes about 15 minutes walk from the station but there are signposts to guide you there.
Its a bargain really at 5ooyen for entrance and has 23 buildings, most of which are houses but does include a Kabuki theater and a small water mill as well.
The buildings themselves are from a variety of different places in Japan, there are five main areas: 'Post Town', 'Village in Shin-etsu', 'Village in Kanto', 'Village in Kanagawa', and 'Village in Tohoku'.
Guided tours are available but to be honest its much nicer to just walk around by yourself, there is information available in Japanese and English so you can find out quite a lot without the tour.
If you want more information then here is the website :
