1552-1554 Chestnut St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The property at 1552-1554 Chestnut Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1923 in the Marina neighborhood, currently owned by Sergio & Gina Isola Survivo. The building has undergone several significant renovations over the years, with the most recent being a substantial $65,000 remodeling project in November 2023 that included updates to the kitchen and multiple bathrooms.

This recent work also involved electrical upgrades and plumbing modifications to meet current building requirements. Earlier improvements include window replacements in 2019 (seven street-facing windows), an electrical service upgrade in August 2024 to 400 amp x 4 meter underground service, and various kitchen renovations in both 2002 and 1988.

The building's maintenance history shows some concerning issues in recent months, including an active complaint regarding an alleged illegal unit behind the garage on the ground floor (filed October 2023) and a complaint regarding unauthorized sidewalk replacement work causing noise disturbances. While some building improvements were completed properly, there have been instances of work done without permits, as evidenced by a 2012 electrical complaint. The property has experienced recurring parking enforcement issues in 2023-2024, with multiple citations issued for vehicles blocking driveways, though some cases were marked as "Unable to Locate" or "Could Not Be Validated." Historical records show the building was retrofitted with foundation bolts and plywood shear walls in 1989, indicating attention to seismic safety requirements.
