1824 Baker St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The property at 1824 Baker Street is a two-family residential building located in Pacific Heights, consisting of two stories and dating back to 1900. The building underwent significant changes during the 2001-2009 period, transitioning from seven units to two legal family dwellings. This conversion process, which occurred between 2003-2009, involved multiple permits and compliance with several notices of violation (NOVs) related to illegal stairs and unauthorized conversions.

The building has undergone various structural and safety improvements, including a $31,500 reroofing project completed in 2019, installation of a new garage and driveway in 2009 ($20,000), and substantial structural work in 2006 ($28,000) addressing issues with rotted sill plates, load-bearing walls, and a sagging bay window. The property has also seen significant interior renovations, including multiple plumbing and electrical upgrades between 2006-2010, with particular attention to kitchen and bathroom remodels. The building had a series of code compliance issues in 2001-2003, including violations related to building permits, plumbing and electrical work, and fire safety concerns, all of which were subsequently abated by September 2003.

More recently, there have been ongoing concerns about tree root damage to sidewalks, with multiple reports between 2019-2022, though these are external to the building itself. The property has maintained a relatively clean record since 2003, with no active building violations or complaints on file since that time. The most recent significant building intervention was the 2019 reroofing project, suggesting regular maintenance compliance by the current ownership. The occupancy status has been stabilized as a two-unit building since the 2003 compliance actions, with no recent complaints regarding unauthorized unit conversions or modifications.
