ABOUT THIS BED

Mara Room — Bed 1 is one of two individual twin beds in this shared bedroom. Bed 1 is on the near-door side of the room, to the left in the concept image. This listing is for one resident and one individual bed, not the entire bedroom.

A major feature of this home is its no-stairs garden-level access. Unlike many garden-level residences, reaching the home does not require navigating a full flight of stairs.

ABOUT THE ROOM

Pet-Friendly | Furnished Denver East Colfax | Furnished Bed in a Shared Garden-Level Bedroom

Mara Room is a warm, comfortable shared furnished bedroom positioned at the back of garden-level Suite 17B. High-set windows bring natural daylight into the room, while warm tan tones, wood-look LVP flooring, and deep-toned wood furnishings create a grounded shared space for sleeping, working, reading, and settling into an everyday routine.

Named after Kenya’s Maasai Mara, the room draws its identity from one of East Africa’s most recognizable landscapes and cultural regions. The Mara is known not only for wildlife and open country, but also for the Maasai people whose traditions, music, community, and relationship to the land are deeply connected to the region.

That story is carried through the room in a striking orange canvas depicting traditional Maasai figures singing and playing instruments, wildlife artwork above the workspace, warm geometric textile accents, and a small Kenyan flag at the desk. Earthy tones and flashes of orange, red, black, and white give the room a distinct Kenyan-inspired character without sacrificing its simple, functional purpose.

There is also something fitting about placing the Mara Room in East Colfax, a Denver neighborhood shaped by many cultures, foods, languages, families, longtime residents, and newcomers. The room reflects that same spirit: colorful, multicultural, humble, practical, and lived-in rather than manufactured.

Who This Works Well For

SAFI Sober Living is designed for an accountable, clean, and independent resident with steady, verifiable income who wants a peaceful furnished place to settle in and is comfortable sharing a home with up to three other independently screened residents.

Adults maintaining sobriety are welcome to apply. Residents must be able to manage daily living and household responsibilities independently and meet SAFI’s screening and shared-home requirements.

A good fit is someone who values personal space while respecting that kitchens, bathrooms, living areas, laundry facilities, and outdoor spaces are shared.

We provide independent furnished sober-living housing. Residents must be able to manage their own daily living and household responsibilities independently.

Screening & Residency

• Standardized Screening: We use a standardized screening process to evaluate standard housing qualifications, property fit, and practical shared-living compatibility.

Government-issued identification is required.
• Residency Terms: One resident per bed and two residents per bedroom, with monthly housing payments, subject to the Residency Agreement.
• Household Compatibility: We screen prospective residents for practical shared-living compatibility but do not guarantee roommate compatibility or manage ordinary interpersonal disagreements.

• Residents participate equitably in a simple resident-managed household cleaning and upkeep roster.
• Shared bedrooms and individual bed areas must be maintained in clean, sanitary condition.
