227-229 5th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The three-story multi-family residential building at 227-229 5th Avenue in the Inner Richmond district, owned by Sharmin Bock and constructed in 1907, consists of two units and has undergone several significant renovations over the years. Most recently, in July 2023, a $65,000 improvement project was completed including interior painting of various rooms, deck repairs, and door/window replacements. Earlier substantial renovations occurred in 2010-2011, when a new family room was added, kitchen and dining areas renovated, and bathroom improvements made for $135,000, along with comprehensive electrical and plumbing upgrades including a rainwater collection system.

The building has also seen modern improvements such as the installation of a Tesla charging station in 2016 and HVAC system upgrades in 2011. Two notable complaints were filed in July 2023 regarding unpermitted work, though these were abated within one to two months. The property has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness and parking enforcement, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2020 and 2024, particularly regarding garbage, debris, and driveway blocking.

A significant tree-related incident occurred in December 2021 following storms. While the recent renovations indicate ongoing maintenance and upgrading of the property, the frequency of street cleaning issues and some parking concerns could affect the immediate area around the building. The property appears to be well-maintained from a structural and systems perspective, with multiple modernization efforts documented through building and permit records.
