249 14th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

249 14th Avenue is a three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1980 and currently owned by 2322 Lombard Street LLC, the property has undergone significant improvements and safety upgrades in recent years. Notable recent work includes the installation of a comprehensive sprinkler system throughout the building (completed in early 2022) at a cost of $55,000, along with a new sprinkler monitoring system ($4,000) in 2021.

The building has also seen substantial renovation work, including a complete remodel of both units' kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms in 2020 ($450,000), as well as exterior improvements including new windows, facade modifications, and a roof deck. More recent developments include the installation of a new pool (22'x10') currently in progress as of October 2024, with associated electrical and plumbing work underway. The building has maintained good infrastructure with previous major works including reroofing in 2013 ($51,485) and the addition of three fireplaces in 2021.

While there was a complaint in 2021 regarding a neighbor's vent installation affecting unit access and ventilation, this was addressed and closed within two months. The property has experienced typical urban maintenance issues in 2024, including debris and pavement concerns, though these appear to be external to the building itself. Historical records show only one minor fire-related incident (2006) with no injuries, and no fire-related issues have been reported since the comprehensive sprinkler installation.
