Property Description:

Managed by Copper Country Rentals – serving MTU students for over 40 years (since June 1983)

Located at 1112 E. Houghton Avenue, this house puts you within an 8-minute walk of MTU’s main campus. No need to rush for that 8 am engineering class or worry about finding parking during winter. You’re close enough to walk, even when the Keweenaw hits you with lake-effect snow.

The location gets even better for daily life. Jim’s Foodmart is a short walk away for late-night snack runs or when you realize you’re out of coffee on Sunday morning. Pearl Street Mall and Flagstar Bank’s University Branch are right in the neighborhood, making errands between classes actually manageable.

This is the kind of location that matters when you’re juggling classes, labs, and trying to have a life. Everything MTU students actually need is within walking distance.
