223-225 Arguello Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94118

The three-story multi-family residential building at 223-225 Arguello Blvd in Lake --The Presidio, owned by Deborah L Budach and William Veatch, has undergone several significant renovations since its construction in 1923. The most recent completed work includes a substantial window and door replacement project in 2023 costing $72,414, where 21 non-street-visible windows were upgraded to wood composite casement windows with improved energy efficiency, along with the installation of a new steel entry door. A re-roofing project initiated in 2024 was cancelled, though previous roof-related work can be inferred from the building's maintenance history.

The property has seen consistent window improvements, with similar upgrades completed in 2017 (seven windows) and garage door replacement in 2018. The building's history includes several routine housing inspections and fire safety issues, with violations recorded in 2000 and 2011 related to fire safety equipment (fire extinguisher maintenance and egress obstructions) and sanitation concerns, though these were subsequently abated. A 2017 incident involving sprinkler systems was resolved by May 2018. The property underwent an important infrastructure upgrade in 2004 with the conversion from overhead to underground electrical service.

Planning records indicate the building has operated as a bed & breakfast (Casa Arguello) with three rooms permitted under RH-2 zoning regulations. Recent external issues reported in 2024 primarily involve street maintenance and parking violations, which are outside the direct purview of building safety and maintenance. Three false fire alarm incidents have been recorded in the building's history, though none resulted in civilian injuries. The property has maintained regular permit activity for essential maintenance and upgrades, suggesting ongoing owner engagement with building upkeep and compliance requirements.
