257-259 5th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 257-259 5th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1913, currently owned by the Irina Mass Living Trust. The building's maintenance and improvement history show regular upkeep, including a complete reroofing project in 2001 costing $4,680, water heater replacements in 2015, and extensive renovations in 1999 that updated the kitchen and bathroom facilities while adding a second bathroom.

Earlier maintenance work included rear siding repairs and window trim installations in 2001, and foundational underpinning work along the south property line in 1987. While the building's structural and plumbing systems appear to have received appropriate attention over the years, there is one concerning issue on record from 1998 regarding leaking soapy water in the garage that remains active and has not been officially resolved according to current databases.

The property's recent history shows no major building-specific complaints or violations, though there have been multiple municipal service calls to the area since 2020, primarily related to street cleaning, abandoned items, and parking issues near the property. The most recent incidents include a sidewalk Christmas tree removal in March 2023, general cleaning needs in late 2022, and one parking enforcement response in January 2021 where a citation was issued for a vehicle parking on the sidewalk. The building's permit and inspection history suggests regular maintenance and updates have been performed as needed, with no significant pattern of deferred maintenance or violations.
