We believe moving should feel simple.
That’s why our homes come fully furnished in all shared spaces, with the essentials you need to settle in comfortably from day one. Just bring your suitcase — we’ve handled the rest.
We furnish common areas thoughtfully so the home feels complete, functional, and welcoming the moment you walk in.

🛏 Bedrooms – Designed for Personalization

We’ve partnered with IKEA to make furnishing easy and affordable. Residents can purchase an Essentials Kit, which typically includes:

- Desk
- Chair
- Dresser
- Nightstand

This gives you flexibility while keeping costs manageable.

Why We Furnish Shared Spaces (But Not Every Bedroom)
Buying furniture for an entire apartment can cost thousands of dollars — and moving it is no small task.
By furnishing shared spaces:
- You avoid large upfront expenses
- You don’t have to move bulky items
- The home feels cohesive and intentional
- Everyone benefits from shared essentials
By keeping most bedrooms unfurnished:
- You control your comfort
- You choose your style
- You avoid paying for furniture you may not want
It’s a balance of simplicity, flexibility, and thoughtful design.
