Rent a Studio Apartment So You Can Spend More Time at Home in Your Undies

We are well aware that roommates aren’t for everybody. From arguments to awkward situations, and just generally feeling like you don’t have your own space to retreat to in your otherwise spacious rental home with four bedrooms, living with other people has its drawbacks, and believe us when we say that we get it, and we fully advocate going for that one-bedroom rental if you’re not feeling like living with roommates after your current lease ends. Krause Rental Properties offers numerous Athens, Ohio studio and one-bedroom apartments for rent to suit the loner in you, as well as several apartments for rent in Columbus near the OSU campus. Home can be any number of things, so why not make it an escape. Enjoy your solitude and the ability to do what you want whenever you want without concern. After all, we can’t deny the many perks that come with shacking up with absolutely no one else in a studio rental apartment in uptown Athens or a one-bedroom rental in Columbus near campus and the Short North. We have affordable one-bedroom apartments located in and around uptown Athens as well as in close-in duplexes. Check them out on our website by searching for “1 bedroom” and then call our office to view the apartments in person.

Let’s Count the Perks of ‘Single Living’

Aside from getting to spend more time in your underwear (or less!), you’ll have no roommates partying at 3 a.m. when you have a final the next morning. On the other side of the coin, no roommates will be demanding you turn the stereo down when you’re kicking it at 3 a.m. (though you might still might be annoying the neighbors in the next-door apartment). You don’t have to watch your roommates make out on the couch. You’re free on the other hand to make out on the couch in peace, either by yourself or with a partner. You won’t have to worry about dirty dishes piling up in the sink if you’re a generally clean person, or you can let the dishes slide if you’re a “do-the-dishes-every-few-days” type. At the end of the day, living in a cool rental apartment by yourself is pretty awesome when you’re able to make all the decisions for yourself—you’re able to decorate the living area and your room with your own furniture that you actually like, and you can finally put up those string lights and that hammock in your rental with a big, lush backyard and take advantage of the space the way you want.

Living on your own also means you’re likely to have reduced stress and conflict—you read that right. When you’re living in a one-bedroom or studio apartment, you might actually not feel as much stress or anxiety as you would elsewhere! Living with others takes a lot of consideration, and there are bound to be arguments over chores and responsibilities, rules, food, and most anything else you can think of. It doesn’t have to be that way, though, and living on your own gives you peace of mind to know that you’re calling the shots in your own space, and you don’t have to listen to anyone else’s input if you don’t want to.

A one-bedroom or studio apartment in Athens or Columbus means you get to live your life how you want it, every day, with no one to answer to but yourself. Set your own hours, lifestyle, not to mention wardrobe (or no wardrobe!). Have the place to yourself so you can decide the TV channel, what’s played on the Bluetooth, and when to go to bed. You’ll enjoy independence the way college is supposed to be—plus that one-bedroom student rental by Ohio University will give you a taste of adult life when you’re done with college and living on your own. And don’t even get us started on that immense feeling of relief and gratitude if you’re coming from a four or five-bedroom rental home. It might feel a little weird at first, but you’re going to be so glad you don’t live with a handful of other people. Finally, and most importantly, with COVID-19 lingering in Ohio, the safest bet for your health – and that of higher-risk loved ones and friends – is living on your own.

Enjoy the Feeling of Having an Athens or Columbus Rental to Yourself

There’s a lot of satisfaction in being the head of the household and never being forced to compromise. When you have a rental studio apartment, you don’t have to listen to anyone else, and you get to do what you want, when you want. It really is that simple, and once you start living on your own, you won’t want to go back. After all, who would want to be living in a six-bedroom rental around the Ohio University area with five other roommates who are doing who knows what at any hour of the day when you could be lounging by yourself in peace and quiet?

Try renting one of our Athens or Columbus one-bedroom apartments to avoid roommate problems. You will never again have to deal with the interruptions or inconveniences associated with sharing a space. Make messes at will and clean on your own time by renting one of our affordable studio apartments. The advantages are endless, and the feeling of freedom is truly great. Grant yourself the freedom to do what you want—after all, an integral part of college is being away from home for one of the first times and having a chance to develop and get to know yourself and your identity further, and what better way to do that than by getting a college rental apartment for Ohio University by yourself? You’ll learn more about the habits you like to hold by being on your own, and those opportunities are invaluable, especially in your early 20s.

Check out your options on our website, then call our office today to schedule an appointment to view your future home. Going through this process, you’ll quickly realize why Krause Rental Properties is among the best rental companies in Columbus or Athens.

Single Living Not for Everybody

However, if living by yourself isn’t your thing, Krause Rental Properties has plenty of Athens or Columbus rental housing that can accommodate two or more tenants. If you’d rather find a sweet Athens college home with four bedrooms or a Columbus apartment with three bedrooms for you and two of your closest friends, that’s doable too. Sometimes the additional company is nice, especially when it’s quality friends you know almost as well as yourself. 

Living with friends offers you added companionship, exposure to new perspectives, and shared chores and split finances to name a few benefits. It really boils down to who you are at your core and whether you do better flying solo, or if you don’t mind the extra company of roommates in a living space.

Our website will give you a full picture of your options, so you can narrow down what you want to see without driving all over town to find your ideal Athens or Columbus student rental. And who knows, if single living isn’t as great as you thought it would be, it’s easy enough to use Krause to help you line up a cool Athens or Columbus rental next year for you and two or three of your best friends.
