Shut the doors, close the heating/cooling registers, and draw the drapes closed. Then use it for a model train room.
I'm renting 3 of the 4 rooms in my house out. The rental market in the Portland area is insane right now. I've never had a serious problem with any of my 6 tenants so far. I'll be getting married this summer, so the tenants will have to go. Once the novelty of marriage wears off, I'll probably rent out rooms again. I've already discussed this with the future Mrs.
It's rather nice having an extra $1500 every month, and other people to talk to. Early retirement money I call it.
