440-444 Linden St, San Francisco, CA 94102

The three-unit building at 440-444 Linden Street in Hayes Valley, owned by Catarina Ranch Investments, was constructed in 1900 and has undergone significant renovations to improve its living spaces. In 2013-2014, the property underwent extensive remodeling work valued at $300,000, involving bathroom and closet additions in all three units, kitchen relocations, and the conversion of shingles to wood siding. The building received comprehensive systems upgrades including the installation of tankless water heaters, a radiant hydronic floor heating system, and complete electrical rewiring with new fixtures and appliances.

These improvements were largely completed by 2014. The property had a notable housing inspection history, beginning with a lead paint violation in December 2007 that required attention to walls and surface areas, which was ultimately resolved by August 2014. Three routine safety inspections (1999, 2007, and 2018) have been conducted on the building, with no ongoing violations recorded.

While there have been numerous 311 calls in the vicinity in recent months (2024), primarily related to street cleaning issues, these external matters do not directly impact the building's condition or safety. A minor contained cooking fire incident was recorded, with no civilian injuries reported. The building's major systems were thoroughly updated in 2013-2014, including plumbing (with new shower installations and heating systems), electrical (with complete rewiring and new fixtures), and structural improvements, resulting in a modernized three-unit residential building.
