275-281 27th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The multi-family residential building at 275-281 27th Avenue in Sea Cliff, owned by Barry & Annemarie Kane since 1999, is a 2-story, 4-unit apartment building constructed in 1909. The property has a history of addressing structural maintenance issues, particularly concerning decks and stairs, with the most recent significant work performed in 2016 involving repairs to rotted members in the lower half of the rear deck. Earlier maintenance records from 2003 and 2007 documented concerns about deck safety and stair deterioration, all of which were subsequently addressed through proper repairs.

The building underwent substantial renovation work in 1988, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, as well as exterior improvements including the replacement of composite shingles with original redwood siding. The building experienced a series of violations in 2001 and 2003, primarily related to safety and maintenance issues, including fire safety concerns, plumbing and electrical violations, and security requirements. All of these violations were officially abated by May 11, 2001.

More recent history shows relatively few building-specific issues, with routine inspections in 2001 and 2008 confirming regulatory compliance. The most recent complaints (from 2020) and all recent 311 calls (from 2023) have been primarily related to external conditions such as street cleaning and graffiti, rather than structural or safety concerns with the building itself. A hot water heater replacement was completed in 2008, and various building permits over the years indicate ongoing maintenance and repair work to keep the property in good condition.
