1118-1122 Cole St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-unit residential building at 1118-1122 Cole Street, located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood, is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1905, currently owned by the Rome Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance projects over the past two decades, with the most recent improvements occurring in 2024, including a bathroom remodel and window installations. Historical records show a pattern of proactive maintenance, with substantial work completed in 2004-2005, including electrical system upgrades, kitchen and bathroom renovations, and structural repairs to the rear stairs.

Notable safety-related issues have been addressed, including gas line repairs in 2020 (after PG&E shut off service due to leaks) and a house trap replacement in 2014. The building has experienced periodic routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services, with the most recent inspection in 2017 showing no active violations. The property has a documented history of addressing maintenance issues promptly, with violations from 2002 regarding handrail requirements being abated in 2004.

Earlier complaints from the 1990s about bathroom ceiling issues and floor coverings were also resolved. While there is a recurring issue with parking enforcement in the area, as evidenced by multiple citations for driveway blocking between 2022 and 2024, these incidents are external to the building's operations and primarily related to street parking enforcement. The building's permit history suggests regular updates to building systems and living spaces, with particular attention paid to electrical, plumbing, and heating systems over the years, including the installation of new direct vent wall heaters in 2012 and comprehensive electrical rewiring in 2005.
