Connected Home 2nd Fl, 2 Kitchens

Two second-floor apartments joined by an interior door — a connected 4BR home in Houston's Third Ward, 3 min from Texas Southern University.

✔ 4 real bedrooms sleep 8, sofa beds add 2
✔ 2 full kitchens, 2 living rooms, 2 bathrooms
✔ In-unit laundry in both halves

Good to know: second floor, stairs only. The connecting door locks from both sides. Two assigned parking spaces. No smoking anywhere on the property.

This booking reserves both second-floor apartments at 2824 Blodgett — two complete homes joined by an interior door. Open it and your group has one connected 4-bedroom home with two kitchens and two living rooms. Lock it and you have two fully private apartments, each with its own entrance.

Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two full kitchens, two living rooms, in-unit laundry in both halves. Three minutes from Texas Southern University, 8-15 to the Texas Medical Center.

Why guests choose this home

WORTH KNOWING BEFORE YOU BOOK

We'd rather you know this now than be surprised later:

✔ Not a suburb. The Third Ward is authentic, central, urban Houston — actively redeveloping, not a quiet suburb or polished tourist setting. Guests who want a central, budget-friendly base with real character tend to love it; guests expecting a quiet suburban retreat or a boutique-luxury feel will be happier elsewhere in our portfolio.
✔ Second floor, reached by stairs — no elevator. Plan accordingly if anyone in your group has mobility concerns.
✔ Historic building — expect some noise transfer between units.
✔ Shared AC between the two halves. One system serves both apartments, so the temperature is the same throughout. Contact us for adjustments.
✔ Shared water heater. Hot water may take 5-10 minutes to reach full temperature; running the sink briefly alongside the shower helps. Water runs warm rather than very hot.
✔ Shared exterior spaces. The driveway, parking area, and dumpster are shared with the two ground-floor units.
✔ No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property — indoors or outdoors. Step fully off-site if you smoke.
✔ Verification required. The primary guest completes ID verification and a signed rental agreement — covering both units — before access instructions are released.
✔ Quiet hours are 9:00 PM-8:00 AM.
✔ A disclosed noise monitor in each unit measures decibel levels only — no audio, video, or conversation recording.
✔ No on-site pool or gym.

Your reservation grants exclusive access to both apartments — complete privacy for your group, no shared interior space with other guests, no host on-site, and our local team a message away if you need anything.

Each unit has its own private entrance with smart-lock self check-in from 4:00 PM. Once you complete pre-arrival verification through our secure guest portal, check-in instructions for both units unlock automatically — however late your group lands, and in whatever order.

The connecting door between the two apartments locks from both sides, so your group controls whether the space is one home or two.

NEARBY: EMANCIPATION PARK

A 3-5 minute drive. Full indoor gym, seasonal outdoor pool (May-September, roughly 1-7 PM), basketball and tennis courts — the closest thing to on-site amenities, and it's free. Founded in 1872 by formerly enslaved Houstonians to celebrate Juneteenth, it's the oldest public park in Texas and still the heart of the Third Ward.

Houston is most convenient by car or rideshare, and the METRORail Purple Line is nearby for Downtown and the Museum District. Your reservation includes two assigned parking spaces, best suited to compact or mid-size vehicles. The TSU paid garage is one block away, and street parking is available on Blodgett subject to posted signage. Groups arriving in more than two cars should plan for a mix.
