52-54 Valparaiso St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The two-unit residential building at 52-54 Valparaiso Street in Russian Hill, owned by Bernard Sacharski Revoc Tr, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1913. The property underwent significant renovations in 2008, including comprehensive remodeling of kitchens and bathrooms in both units, installation of new fixtures and appliances, and electrical upgrades. This work included new bathroom lighting systems with energy-efficient features and a complete plumbing overhaul that added washer/dryer facilities, gas stoves, and water heaters to both units.

The building's maintenance record shows attention to structural elements, with back staircase replacement due to dry rot (2008) and street space permit issuance (2019). Of particular note is a building complaint from June 2019 regarding unauthorized roof deck and metal rail installation, though this complaint is currently listed as not active. The property has experienced recurring issues with loose garbage on the street, with multiple reports filed between 2019-2023, though all these cases were resolved through standard city cleaning processes.

A hazardous materials incident was reported and resolved in February 2023, involving unidentified liquids on or near the property. The building's more distant history includes a roofing project from 1997, though records indicate this permit expired. The property's maintenance and renovation history suggests active management, particularly focusing on modernizing systems and improving living conditions, with most recent updates emphasizing energy efficiency and safety features.
