1533 Sutter St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The four-story, multi-family residential building at 1533 Sutter Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by the Paganini Revocable Trust, was constructed in 1889 and contains three units. The property has undergone significant renovations between 2013-2014, including comprehensive electrical rewiring of all residential units, plumbing updates with multiple fireplace installations, and a substantial garage addition with rooftop deck. In 2013, major interior remodels were completed across all floors, including kitchen relocations, bathroom reconfigurations, and laundry room modifications, along with foundational improvements comprising perimeter footing replacement, hold-down bolt installations, and treatment of dry rot issues.

The most recent building work was completed in 2023 with a $40,000 reroofing project. The building has experienced some maintenance and safety issues over the years, including multiple garbage-related incidents in late 2024-early 2025, though these were primarily street-level municipal service matters rather than building-specific problems. Four minor fires have been recorded, including two cooking-related incidents and a false alarm, none of which resulted in civilian injuries.

A 2009 complaint regarding an eight-foot high black steel fence blocking public access was resolved quickly. The property has maintained compliance with various building codes and requirements, as evidenced by the completion of necessary permits and inspections for major works, including foundation replacements and interior remodels. While the building has undergone substantial modernization and maintenance work, most of the significant improvements were completed nearly a decade ago, with the exception of the recent reroofing project in 2023.
