Hi, I am a 25F Stanford research coordinator looking for a female roommate to move in around August 1st to a 2B1B unit in the downstairs of a duplex in Menlo Park, since my previous roommate is moving out.

Location:

Menlo Park, ~ 15 min drive to Stanford
Trader Joe’s Menlo Park ~ 10 min drive
Costco Redwood City ~ 7 min drive
Close to major roads/freeways (101 South, 101 North, etc)

About the Apartment:

Located in the downstairs unit of a beautiful yellow duplex surrounded by a fence, with 2 bedrooms and 1 shared bathroom
Lots of fruit trees, flowers, and plants in the front and back garden
Available bedroom has two large windows with natural sunlight looking out into backyard garden (relatively secluded), ample closet space
Very quiet and safe neighborhood
Plenty of natural sunlight
Laundry (washer and dryer) in garage
Marble floors in common room and kitchen with tile countertops, stove, oven, small dishwasher, fridge, freezer

Details:

Target move-in date: sometime around August 1, 2026
While the lease is month to month, only interested in a longer-term roommate planning on staying a year or longer
Rent is around $1500 a month, TV and internet is around $30 a month, and PG and E/utilities is around $120-150 a month per person depending on the usage (though it is sometimes lower depending on the month)

Roommate Preferences:

An ideal roommate is another female young professional or graduate student to move in who is reliable, responsible, clean, quiet, and respectful.
Cats are fine and welcome!

A little about me:

Have been living here for a year and plan to stay for at least a year longer
Very clean, quiet, responsible, and respectful
Value open communication about any potential issues
Friendly/sociable but also introverted and like alone time/recharging in my room
Don’t have any pets but am a cat lover and don’t have any allergies
Will occasionally have friends/family over but won’t be throwing parties or any large gatherings
In a hybrid position so WFH 2-3 days a week
