3845 California St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 3845 California Street is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building located in the Jordan Park/Laurel Heights neighborhood, built in 1915 and currently owned by Sean D. Sullivan. The building has undergone significant renovations in recent years, with Unit #2 receiving a major update in 2021 including new kitchen cabinets, countertops, sink, fixtures, and bathroom renovations totaling $26,000, with associated electrical and plumbing upgrades completed in October 2021.

Unit #1 was similarly renovated in 2015, featuring a complete kitchen and bathroom remodel with electrical and plumbing updates totaling $60,000. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in its history, particularly concerning water damage, mold, and lead paint hazards. Notable complaints were filed in 2006 regarding interior surfaces, including water damage, window issues, and mold/mildew problems, though these were resolved by March 2006.

In 2008, the property underwent a routine housing inspection revealing additional concerns including plumbing, electrical, and exterior maintenance issues, all of which were subsequently addressed. More recent activity includes multiple construction-related noise complaints in 2024, though these appear to be related to a nearby construction project rather than work on the building itself. The property has maintained compliance with building codes since the resolution of earlier violations, and recent permits suggest regular maintenance and updating of building systems. The most recent documented issues have been external to the building, primarily involving street cleaning and graffiti removal in 2024.
