5331-5333 California St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 5331-5333 California Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, currently owned by Christina P. Wang. The building has undergone several significant renovations over the years, with the most recent major work occurring in 2021-2022, including a substantial interior remodel of the first-floor unit (5333) costing $115,000.

This renovation included kitchen relocation and bathroom updates, along with comprehensive electrical and plumbing work. The building previously underwent extensive remodeling work in 2000-2003, including bathroom additions and window relocations, though some of these permits expired and required renewal. An issue with an unpermitted backyard shed in 2003 led to a violation notice and subsequent resolution with a permitted construction project costing $2,500.

The property has demonstrated ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts, including the installation of a Mitsubishi wall mount heat pump, the relocation of a furnace, and complete electrical upgrades in 2022. Historical records show a withdrawn permit from 1994 for a garage addition, and multiple permits for backyard shed construction in 2003, which became a focus of building violations and complaints at that time. The most recent activity at the property has been primarily related to parking enforcement, with multiple citations issued for driveway blockages between 2024-2025, suggesting ongoing challenges with parking management in the vicinity. There is currently one open noise complaint from August 2024, and a recent garbage-related complaint from January 2025, though these issues may be related to neighborhood conditions rather than building-specific problems.
