2527-2531 Washington St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The property at 2527-2531 Washington Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Pacific Heights, owned by Brian and Lisa Sugar and constructed in 1900. The building underwent significant renovations in 2010-2011, including substantial mechanical upgrades with the installation of three new furnaces and comprehensive electrical work that added new lighting, appliances, and safety features including smoke detectors.

Major structural improvements were completed in 2010, involving partial foundation replacement and the installation of transverse grade beams, along with interior updates to both units' kitchens and bathrooms valued at $18,000. The electrical upgrades alone involved the installation of 340 lights, 175 receptacles, and multiple appliance installations across both units. Recent history (2023-2024) has mostly involved minor municipal issues, primarily related to parking enforcement with multiple reports of vehicles blocking driveways and parking on sidewalks, though enforcement officers were generally unable to locate the offending vehicles.

There were occasional instances of street cleaning needs, sign defacement, and graffiti issues reported between 2021 and 2024, but these were typically resolved promptly by city services. The property also has records of two abandoned vehicle reports from 2021 and 2023, where vehicles were gone upon inspection. In terms of planning records, there was a rear yard/noncomplying variance approved for the property, associated with architect John Lum, indicating some modifications were made to the originally permitted conditions.
