The station building is a wooden structure of traditional Japanese design located at a lower level.

It houses a waiting room and a JR Kyushu Midori no Madoguchi staffed ticket window .

The track was extended westwards in phases, with this station opening as the new western terminus on 15 October 1924 with the name Bungo-Takeda (same kanji characters but with a different reading).

With the privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR), the successor of JGR, on 1 April 1987, the station came under the control of JR Kyushu.
