Tokyo / Small House (Max 9) affordable share houses (+ other filters) (lowest private-room price)

Listings with private rooms, sorted by the lowest monthly rent — cheapest first.

At a glance
  • 20s mainly
  • Private from ¥43,000

If you want to avoid the dormitory-style living of large share houses in Tokyo but feel uneasy about living alone, a small-scale house with 9 or fewer residents is the ideal choice, offering a perfect balance of privacy and a sense of community.

For a good balance between access to the city center and rent, areas like Koenji and Nakano on the Chuo Line, Meidaimae on the Keio Line, and Gakugei-daigaku on the Tokyu lines are recommended. At this scale, common areas are less crowded, and detached-house options are also easy to find.
