1241-1245 Masonic Ave, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-unit residential building at 1241-1245 Masonic Avenue in Haight Ashbury, owned by Va Trust Agreement Dtd 6/20, is a three-story flats & duplex structure built in 1900. The property has undergone significant modernization and improvements over the past 15 years, with the most recent major work being a reroofing project completed in 2017 (cost: $15,800). Between 2010 and 2013, substantial interior renovations were performed, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, window replacements, and HVAC upgrades totaling over $265,000.

The electrical systems received comprehensive updates, including complete rewiring of the lower flat with new circuits, panels, and safety features. Plumbing improvements were similarly extensive, with new bathroom facilities, laundry upgrades, and gas furnace installations documented through multiple permits from 2009 to 2013. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep and modernization, though there were some concerns in 2003 regarding gas meter safety that were promptly addressed.

A significant issue arose in 2007 concerning potential foundation problems related to neighboring construction, though this was resolved by 2010. Recent 311 calls (2024) primarily relate to exterior maintenance matters such as street cleaning and parking enforcement, with one open noise complaint from August 2024. Fire safety systems have been maintained, with only two non-injury-related detector activations recorded - one for smoke detection and another for carbon monoxide (both showing no actual hazards). A conversion project was proposed to create a 3-car garage from the basement space, and there was a previous investigation concerning short-term vacation rental use, though both issues appear to have been resolved.
