729-731 Grove St, San Francisco, CA 94102

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 729-731 Grove Street in Hayes Valley, owned by Seema Gokhale, was constructed in 1900 as a two-story flats and duplex structure. The property has undergone several notable modifications and faced some concerning recent events. Most significantly, in late 2022, a patio was converted into a mudroom with minor electrical work totaling $15,000, with related electrical and plumbing updates completed in June 2024.

A fire complaint regarding combustible materials was reported and corrected in July 2024, though no structural damage was indicated. The property has experienced substantial recent street-level challenges, particularly during late 2024. There were multiple reports of garbage and debris issues between September and December 2024, including furniture, a refrigerator, and three instances of loose garbage and yard waste.

The location has also faced encampment-related issues, with one notable case on November 9, 2024, where responding officers were unable to locate the reported encampment. While two street space permits were issued in 2019 (for minimal cost), these appear to be routine administrative matters. The most recent maintenance activity on record is a bathroom renovation involving a vanity, faucet, and sink drain replacement, showing some ongoing property upkeep. The building has no recorded tenant buyouts, and all recent permits have been properly processed through building and planning departments.
