Private Room for Rent in a Beijing Hutong Courtyard

No Agent Fee | Short & Long-Term Stay Welcome | Gulou Area

Welcome to an Architect-Designed Hutong Home in the Heart of Beijing

Hello!
We’re a group of roommates who met because of this house—and over time, became something like family. Now, we’re looking for the next person to join our shared home and daily life.

This is more than just a place to stay—it’s a lived-in, warm, and creative home tucked inside one of Beijing’s most historic hutongs.

About the Home

A spacious two-story traditional courtyard house (not a single-story bungalow)

Layout includes 4 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 1 kitchen, 1 bathroom, and a private courtyard garden

Excellent privacy for bedrooms, with generous and comfortable shared spaces

Designed by Mr. Wu Liangyong, one of China’s most respected architects — this house is one of his early award-winning works

Located in a quiet hutong near Gulou, yet surrounded by life and culture

Location Highlights
Located inside Nanluoguxiang — vibrant outside, calm and peaceful at home. A truly prime hutong location.

Walking distance to Drum Tower, Jingshan Park, and the Forbidden City

Hidden gems all around: independent cafés, small bars, galleries, and local eateries right in the hutongs

Very convenient transportation with multiple bus lines and nearby subway stations

Bonus

We have a sweet and friendly resident cat, so cat lovers are very welcome!

About Us

We are a group of young professionals and creatives working in art, design, film, and related fields.
We value hutong life, good conversations, shared meals, and a calm but lively home atmosphere.

We hope you are someone who:

Is honest, kind, and easygoing

Respects personal boundaries while enjoying shared living

Keeps common areas clean and is willing to maintain the home together

Likes cats (or at least doesn’t mind living with one!)

Get in Touch

If this place feels like it could be your home, feel free to message us with a short introduction about yourself, your stay duration, and any questions you may have.

We’re happy to meet and see if it’s a good fit—for both sides
