427-429 Central Ave, San Francisco, CA 94117

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 427-429 Central Avenue in Park North, currently owned by the Eileen P Adams Trust, has undergone several significant improvements and repairs since its construction in 1900. The most recent major renovation was a kitchen remodel completed in early 2021, which included both plumbing and electrical updates at a cost of $25,000. The building has experienced recurring issues with dry rot, particularly in the rear deck area, with repairs documented in 2020 and 2015 costing $4,000 and $5,000 respectively.

A notable structural improvement was completed in 1999 with foundation replacement work. The property has also seen various plumbing upgrades, including the installation of multiple natural gas fireplaces in 2018 and sewer work in 2013. Recent 311 calls for the property (as of 2024) have primarily concerned external issues such as illegal parking, graffiti, and noise complaints, rather than structural or safety concerns related to the building itself.

There was a significant rear yard improvement project approved through a variance, which involved replacing an existing enclosed porch and stairs with open decks and staircase on both levels. This project aligns with the property's documented history of both improvements and repairs to rear access areas. While the building has required regular maintenance over the years, the pattern of improvements suggests ongoing investment in maintaining and upgrading the property.
