70-74 Bret Harte Ter, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-unit residential building at 70-74 Bret Harte Terrace in Russian Hill, owned by Charles & Ingrid Cheng, was constructed in 1939 and stands three stories tall. The property has undergone significant improvements, with the most recent project being a completed reroofing in June 2023 costing $9,600. In 2013-2014, substantial renovation work was completed on units 72 and 74, including interior remodeling of three bathrooms and two kitchens, facade alterations, installation of bi-fold doors, window replacements, and repairs to the rooftop deck.

This project, valued at $75,000, involved multiple permits and required subsequent final inspections for electric and plumbing work due to the original permits expiring. The renovation also included structural modifications such as guardrail and screen material updates for unit 74's terrace and rooftop deck. Earlier modifications considered for the property included a proposed conversion of a flat roof into a deck for unit 72 in 2013, though this permit was ultimately cancelled.

The building has undergone routine housing inspections in 2006 and 2008, both of which were resolved promptly. Planning records indicate several approved modifications, including a rear bay window construction and a porch conversion project that involved a 120 square foot addition, interior remodeling, facade improvements, and roof deck addition. The only recent issue recorded was a parking enforcement call in May 2023 regarding a blocked driveway, which was ultimately deemed invalid due to incomplete reporting information. The building's documented improvements suggest regular maintenance and upgrading of facilities, with no recorded safety violations or resident complaints.
