Furnished room in 2BR Furnished Home Near SFSU (TODAY–May 2026) — Quiet, Convenient, Below-Market Rent + Cat Companion and PhD student roomate (M, 29)
I am looking for a responsible SFSU student or faculty member to rent a room in quiet and spacious Daly City home from today through May.
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.
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
We'll be sharing the home with Marley, my affectionate, highly entertaining Ocicat.
No other pets, please
Past renters wanted to keep her—she’s that wonderful.

Max the Roommate
Hi! I’m Max, 29, originally from Germany, and currently a PhD candidate at Stanford finishing up my dissertation. I’ll be living in the home during this period and helping coordinate everything on-site while Ted the homeowner is teaching abroad. I care a lot about maintaining a calm, respectful household and clear communication. I’m hoping to find someone thoughtful and reliable who enjoys a peaceful living environment and will treat the space (and Marley!) with care.
