If you want to keep playing your instrument but worry about disturbing others late at night, a male-majority share house that explicitly allows musical instruments and features soundproofing is the perfect solution. Many of your housemates will likely be music lovers as well, and since your daily rhythms are likely to align, the risk of noise-related friction is significantly reduced.
Areas along the Chuo Line, such as Nakano and Koenji, as well as Meidaimae on the Keio Line, have deep-rooted musical cultures where you can find properties equipped with soundproof rooms. Your options expand further if you are willing to live within cycling distance of a station.
