Private room available in a large shared house near UH, TSU, Rice, and the Medical Center. We’re seeking a new housemate for a quiet, friendly, community-oriented home. It is over 4,300 square feet with 4.5 bathrooms and plenty of shared space to enjoy, including a big kitchen, fireplace, library, pool table, and multiple common areas. If you want a place where you can have your own space but also enjoy living with other people, this setup works well. Outside, the house sits on a double lot with a huge backyard, patio, fire pit, garden, and lots of trees. There’s also free laundry in the house plus ample parking in the driveway and on the street.
The atmosphere of the house is generally relaxed, respectful, and fairly quiet during the week. It’s a good fit for someone who takes work or school seriously, keeps shared spaces clean, and wants a comfortable place to come home to. We’re also close to the restaurants, bars, and nightlife in Montrose and Midtown.
