Medium House (10-29) / Residents in their 20s affordable share houses (lowest private-room price)
Listings with private rooms, sorted by the lowest monthly rent — cheapest first.
- Private from ¥40,500
- Int'l-friendly
For those in their 20s who feel that "large-scale houses are too noisy, but small ones feel stifling due to fixed social circles," a mid-sized house with 10–29 residents offers the perfect balance. This scale allows for natural conversation in the shared living room while making it easy to find time to yourself.
This list features mid-sized houses with residents in their 20s. We focus on properties that offer a great balance between commute and rent, such as those along the Chuo and Keio lines—providing direct access to Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Shibuya—as well as areas within 30 minutes of the city center for those looking to keep rent costs down.
- If you prioritize meeting people your own age regardless of house size, please see our list of share houses with residents in their 20s.
- If you prefer living in a moderately sized house regardless of age group, our list of mid-sized houses (10–29 residents) is a convenient resource.
