3248 Washington St, San Francisco, CA 94115

3248 Washington Street is a three-story multi-family residential building located in Pacific Heights, containing three units and built in 1904. The property, currently owned by the Carol C Chichester 2003 Trust, has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades. In 2000, a safety measure was implemented with the installation of a 9' x 3' sidewalk bannister to protect against the long curved staircase at the front of the building.

Subsequent improvements in 2003 included substantial electrical work, comprising the installation of 16 lights, multiple switches and receptacles, new circuits, and kitchen updates including a garbage disposal line and dishwasher installation. The building has experienced three notable instances of unauthorized work in the year 2000, 1998, and 2002, though these violations were subsequently addressed and abated. Recent activity at the property has primarily involved external maintenance and parking issues.

In 2024, there was one report of a potentially hazardous tree (though this was later determined to pose no immediate safety concerns), and multiple instances of driveway blocking incidents that resulted in several citations being issued. The most recent address-related issues were resolved by various city departments, including parking enforcement and street cleaning services. A documented fire incident occurred involving an unintentional alarm transmission, though no civilian injuries were reported. Of particular note is a tenant buyout that took place in August 2019 at a neighboring address (3234 Washington Street), involving a payment of $61,000 to one tenant.
