↑ The Corner, 2504 San Gabriel Street, a (one) bedroom in a two- to five-bedroom apartment, 765-1,727 square feet, $925-$1,325/month. It appears that some of these West Campus apartments also have spiral staircases and, kind of unbelievably, charge as much per room as whole apartments in other parts of the city rent for. We’re intrigued.

↑ Radius at the Domain, 11900 Hobby Horse Court, one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment, 645 square feet, $950/month. These North Burnet neighborhood apartments look like they have an old-school feel around pools and courtyards with sleek, updated interiors with light gray cabinetry, designer lighting, wood vinyl planking, and full-sized washer and dryer connections. Pet friendly and, of course, convenient to the ever-expanding Domain.

↑ 5511 Guadalupe Street, two-bedroom, one-bathroom condo, 700 square feet, $948/month. If you’re looking for a freestanding-feeling, house-type environment in a highly walkable neighborhood, this North Loop condo might fit the bill. The listing says the space will be updated before move-in. Pets are allowed.
