A son of [[Matsumae Akihiro]], he was adopted by [[Matsumae Masahiro]]. In his younger years he studied martial arts, particularly horsemanship. He invited many experienced scholars to Matsumae han, studying English, military strategy, Western politics and affairs, and developed a great interest in Western culture, studying physics and chemistry, and collecting various Western devices including cameras.
He became the 12th head of the [[Matsumae clan]] in [[1849]], when Matsumae Masahiro became ill, and his son [[Matsumae Norihiro (1844-1869)|Matsumae Norihiro]] was still too young to take over as head of the clan. Takahiro later adopted Norihiro, and was succeeded by him on his death in [[1866]].
