Property Description:

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

Located at 408 E. Houghton Ave, this house puts you within a 12-minute walk of MTU’s main campus. When you’re rushing to make an 8 am chem lab at Wadsworth Hall, you can walk to campus without the parking nightmare. 

The quiet residential street means you’re not dealing with constant noise, but you’re still close enough that getting to the Memorial Union Building or MEEM for group projects doesn’t eat up your whole day.

Eight bedrooms with three full bathrooms mean you don’t have to worry about personal space.
