[3] The station consists of a side platform serving a single track at grade.

The station building is a modern structure but built in timber in traditional Japanese style.

On 15 November 1934, a link up was achieved between Hita and Amagase, and the entire stretch from Kurume to Ōita was now designated as the Kyudai Main Line.
