Oh no no no. A PRIVATE ROOM in a Free Company is 300k gil. You want a house? You have to find an open plot and be willing to dump millions of gil into it. Both of which are difficult goals - one being because "lots of money" and the other being that a lot of Balmung's housing lots have been snapped up.
The latter can be worse on the price tag since some people will "sell" the plots to other players, with a markup. A markup that can commonly mean paying 200% of just buying an empty plot.
If at all possible, I'd stick with a Free Company room and see if that fills your need enough. Should you really want your own place, then you can start the slow filling of your coffers.
