2416-2418 Balboa St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The two-unit residential building at 2416-2418 Balboa Street in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood is a one-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923, currently owned by Xu Hongwei. The property has undergone significant renovations and improvements between 2013 and 2015, with major work completed in 2013 including substantial remodeling of both units, building code compliance updates, and expansion of rear structures.

This work encompassed adding unit numbers, expanding rear features, kitchen remodels, bathroom additions, and deck construction, with a reported cost of $100,000. The following year, additional improvements were made, including reroofing, deck modifications, and comprehensive electrical system upgrades, with notable plumbing work involving bathroom and kitchen remodels plus new water heaters for both units. The building underwent a complete electrical system modernization in 2014, including installation of a 125-amp service, extensive wiring updates, and the addition of multiple modern safety features such as smoke detectors.

The property also received important mechanical upgrades, including installation of two new furnaces and water heaters in 2014, and an electrical meter was added for 2416 Balboa St in 2015. Earlier history shows minimal maintenance work, such as east side siding installation in 1986, but the extensive improvements between 2013-2015 suggest a comprehensive modernization of the building's systems and living spaces. The most recent building permit activity occurred in 2014, with no recorded violations or safety concerns, indicating the property has maintained compliance with local building codes since the major renovation period.
