Room for Rent in a shared Home (English/German) 15 minutes from Basel! 650€ in total per month, short term preferred. No hidden costs. My idea is that you can have almost everything you need to live comfortably in a home for that price without worrying about anything else. I live upstairs and spend most of my time in my office. You would be downstairs. The offer includes: - 1 Private room – See picture for furniture (closet, bed, bedding, drawers, hangers, fan, lights). If you don’t want the furniture, you’re welcome to bring your own. - 1 Private bathroom (toilet, shower/bathtub) – Unless there are guests, which can happen occasionally. Access to shared spaces: - Living room - Kitchen – fully equipped (coffee machine, pots, pans, utensils, etc.) - Terrace/Garden with fire-pit - Dishwasher - Laundry machine - Laundry dryer - Sonos sound system - Television - Fiber internet - Occasional access to the guest room if you want to host guests (agreement basis) - Potential access to a bicycle ⚠️ Very important! I have 2 indoor cats, and they are not to be let outside. They are very important to me! At all times, doors must stay closed, and windows can only be cracked open, not left fully open. I do not drink alcohol or smoke. Smoking or drug use on the property is prohibited. I would prefer a non-drinker, but I won’t insist on it. - A deposit of 2 months’ rent is required. - A bus stop is a 5-minute walk from the house, and it reaches Basel in about 20 minutes...

At HousingAnywhere, in-person viewings are not supported — so everyone has an equal chance to rent, no matter where you are in the world. To help you make an informed decision, we recommend:
Use the ‘Message landlord’ button to start a secure conversation on our platform. You can ask questions, discuss terms, and safely exchange documents.
Keeping your conversation on HousingAnywhere protects your privacy and helps you avoid scams. All your messages are also saved in one place for easy access and as a record of your agreements.
Once your rental is confirmed, we’ll share the landlord’s contact info so you can arrange your move-in.
Tenant Protection is our service to help you rent with peace of mind. We hold all payments you make through our platform before move-in, including the first month's rent and any deposit. After you arrive, you have 48 hours to check that the place is as you expected. We only send your money to the landlord if everything is okay.
Watch this short video to see all the ways we keep you safe, from secure payments to support with finding a new place. For more details, you can also read about Tenant Protection.
