2BR Furnished Home Near SFSU (TODAY–May 2026) — Quiet, Convenient, Below-Market Rent + Cat Companion
I’ll be teaching and working abroad from February until May and am looking for a responsible SFSU student or faculty member to rent my Daly City home during that period.
This is a great fit for someone who wants a peaceful, fully furnished place with easy access to SFSU, downtown SF, and the Peninsula—and who enjoys the company of a friendly, low-maintenance cat.

About the Home
A cozy, comfortable 4BR / 2BA single-family home, with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms available for your use.
You’ll also have:
Furnishings included (please treat them gently)
A quiet yoga/meditation room
Easy street parking
A small backyard
A TV you can cast to (no cable)
Bright, clean common spaces with a relaxed, lived-in feel
The home is simple—not fancy—but very welcoming and great for focusing on school, teaching, or creative work.

Marley the Ocicat
You’ll be sharing the home with Marley, my affectionate, highly entertaining Ocicat. Cat care is straightforward:
Daily feeding & fresh water
Litter box upkeep
OK to leave her alone for up to 48 hours
No other pets, please
Past renters wanted to keep her—she’s that wonderful.

Location & Commute
The house is in Westlake, one of the safest and most convenient neighborhoods near SFSU.
7–10 minutes to SFSU by car
15–20 minutes by bus (depending on line)
3 blocks to Thornton State Beach + trails
2 blocks to Westlake Shopping Center (Safeway, Trader Joe’s, Target, cafés, UPS, etc.)
Easy access to I-280 (SF, Daly City BART, SFSU, South Bay)
Great for students or faculty looking for quiet study space with immediate access to nature and groceries.

Rent & Terms
$1350/month (utilities included) per room
First month, last month, + half-month security deposit
Available NOW through May
Absolutely no smoking or recreational drug use
Low/no alcohol preferred
Overnight guests OK with prior check-in (for safety/household management)
Small dinner/game nights fine; no large gatherings or parties
No shoes on rugs (no-shoes-in-house preferred)
Weekly 2–3 minute “all’s well” check-in + bringing in mail

Ideal for
Graduate students
Visiting scholars or postdocs
Faculty on sabbatical or temporary appointment
Students seeking a peaceful, furnished home instead of shared student housing
Anyone who appreciates quiet, kindness, and a calm environment for study or teaching

If you’re interested—or know someone in the Stanford or SFSU community who would be a great fit—please reach out. I’m hoping to rent to someone thoughtful, reliable, and excited about a comfortable home close to campus.
