If you can afford it, I'd go with a hotel rather than staying at his house. And make your first meet-up somewhere like a cafe/restaurant, or art gallery/other attraction. Worth getting a sense of him in person before you step into his house.
It's most likely to be perfectly fine. But there is a definite risk and it doesn't hurt to be a little cautious. If he checks out on meeting and you get the same vibe in person as you do online, then you can always cut your hotel stay short by a night and spend a night at his instead.
