269 Avila St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 269 Avila Street in the Marina district, owned by Bafi Properties LLC, was constructed in 1926 and has undergone significant renovations and improvements in recent years. The most substantial change was the addition of an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) in 2018-2019, which included seismic strengthening, new overhead fire protection sprinkler system, and comprehensive utility upgrades. The $88,000 ADU project, completed in 2019, was followed by various improvements including plumbing relocations, electrical upgrades, and the installation of new HVAC systems throughout the building.

Notable safety enhancements included fire sprinklers installation with 22 heads and other fire safety improvements. The building has a documented history of a previously unauthorized ground floor bathroom that was addressed through a Notice of Violation in 2017-2018, which was ultimately resolved by May 2018. Since the ADU addition, there have been no reported building violations, and all major systems (plumbing, electrical, heating) have been comprehensively upgraded or replaced.

Recent activity related to the property has primarily focused on parking enforcement, with multiple reports of driveway blocking incidents recorded between October 2024 and January 2025, though these are unrelated to building safety or habitability. The property has experienced three documented fire-related incidents, though none resulted in civilian injuries or significant damage, and there were no serious safety violations related to these events. A fire complaint regarding combustible materials from 2014 was resolved on the same day it was reported.
