New Albany Indiana Furnished Rental: A Smart Base Near Louisville
New Albany Indiana Furnished Rental: A Smart Base Near Louisville
Quick answer: A HobKnob furnished rental in New Albany, Indiana puts you about ten minutes from downtown Louisville, with private rooms starting at around $749 per month at our Julian Gentlemen Home and a private apartment at The Spring starting at around $1,699 per month, and pricing can change with availability. Every unit is fully furnished, and one monthly payment covers rent, all utilities, and high-speed WiFi across our Louisville, KY and Southern Indiana homes. There is a 30-day minimum stay and the lease is month-to-month after that, so you can extend or give notice anytime, with no year-long lease.
A travel nurse called our office last spring about a thirteen week assignment at a hospital downtown. She had spent two weeks scrolling Louisville listings and had not once looked across the river.
When I told her the drive from New Albany into the Louisville medical district was shorter than her old commute to the grocery store, she went quiet for a second, then asked for the address.
That happens more often than you would think. A furnished rental in New Albany, Indiana is one of the most overlooked options for anyone who needs a place near Louisville for a month or several months.
Where New Albany Actually Sits
New Albany is in Floyd County, Indiana, directly across the Ohio River from Louisville. The Sherman Minton Bridge carries Interstate 64 over the water, and all six lanes reopened in December 2024 after a three year renewal project, so the crossing is no longer the construction headache it was for a while.
From our Julian Gentlemen Home, downtown Louisville is about ten minutes and Indiana University Southeast is about five. From The Spring, downtown Louisville is roughly twelve minutes, and downtown New Albany is an easy walk.
River crossing aside, you are living in a real town rather than a commuter pocket. For most residents that matters more than the mileage.
What a Furnished Rental in New Albany Includes
Every HobKnob home works the same way on both sides of the river. You are not buying a mattress, opening a utility account, or splitting a power bill with anyone.

New Albany's Two Co-Living Homes
New Albany has two of our co-living houses, and both are Gentlemen Homes. You can see what is open right now on our private room availability page for Louisville and Southern Indiana.
Julian, at 3018 Julian Drive, has four private bedrooms and three full bathrooms. Two of those rooms have their own private bathroom and a reserved parking spot. There are three separate common areas, including one in the finished basement, plus a koi pond and a double deck out back. Rooms at Julian run $749 to $899 per month.
The Spring, at 912 East Spring Street, is a newly renovated house with only three bedrooms, which makes it the quietest home we operate. Four off-street parking spots sit behind the house, and downtown New Albany is a short walk. Rooms at The Spring run $849 to $899 per month.
Our Ladies Homes in Southern Indiana are nearby rather than in New Albany itself. The Falls is in Clarksville and Riverview is in Jeffersonville, both a short drive away.
If You Want Your Own Front Door
Not everyone wants a shared kitchen, and New Albany happens to have the lowest-priced private apartment we operate anywhere. The Spring Apt 2 is a 725 square foot two bedroom at 912 East Spring Street, starting at around $1,699 per month. Two larger units at The Spring start at around $1,799 per month. You can compare them on our furnished apartment page.
What Living in New Albany Is Actually Like
Downtown New Albany is walkable and busier than most people expect. The farmers market runs on Saturdays year round at 202 East Market Street, Bicentennial Park anchors the middle of downtown, and there is a cluster of independent restaurants and coffee shops within a few blocks.
For healthcare travelers, Baptist Health Floyd sits at 1850 State Street right in town, and the Louisville medical district is a short drive over the bridge. For students, Indiana University Southeast is minutes away. Those groups make up most of who we house on the Indiana side, along with contract workers and remote professionals.
