354-356 Arguello Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94118

The 354-356 Arguello Boulevard property is a three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1918, currently owned by the Ralph Family Trust and located in the Jordan Park/Laurel Heights neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent being a comprehensive bathroom remodel completed in 2023 that included new fixtures, tile, lighting, cabinetry, and electrical work totaling $30,000. Previous substantial renovations include a 2015 kitchen renovation ($27,000), exterior egress stair replacement from wood to steel in 2014 ($40,000), and dryrot repairs and exterior refurbishment in 2013 ($9,500).

The property has also seen substantial electrical and plumbing upgrades, with the 2023 bathroom remodel including the installation of hardwired smoke detectors. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity and safety features, particularly with the egress stair replacement and various plumbing and electrical system upgrades. A variance application regarding off-street parking to legalize a third unit was noted in planning records, though the building is officially listed as a two-family dwelling.

The property has experienced multiple parking-related issues in recent years, with numerous complaints about driveway blockage between 2018 and 2021, though many cases resulted in officers being unable to locate the offending vehicles. While these parking incidents may affect resident convenience, they are largely external to the building's structure and systems. The building's maintenance and improvement record suggests regular upkeep and modernization efforts by the ownership, with no recorded safety violations or internal system failures in the available data.
