1358-1360 26th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

This two-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building located at 1358-1360 26th Ave in the Central Sunset neighborhood was built in 1914 and is currently owned by the Whitmed Family Living Trust. The property has undergone several significant improvements and renovations over the past decade, with the most recent being the installation of heat pump water heaters in August 2024, following a 2023 trend toward energy-efficient appliances.

Major renovations were performed between 2015-2019, including comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodels, window replacements (single pane to double pane), and the addition of a solar power system in 2018 consisting of 18 PV modules. This property previously faced regulatory issues in 2006-2007 when unauthorized construction allegedly created a third unit in the garage, resulting in parking violations and subsequent abatement proceedings, though these issues were resolved with the removal of unauthorized structures and restoration of parking spaces. The building has maintained an active maintenance and upgrade schedule, with permits showing regular updates to essential systems including plumbing and electrical work.

Recent improvements reflect attention to both comfort and sustainability, such as the bathroom remodels, energy-efficient window upgrades, and solar panel installation. Historical records from 2014 indicate there were some concerns about unpermitted work and safety hazards, though these issues appear to have been addressed. The property has experienced recurring parking enforcement issues in the surrounding area, with multiple citations issued for vehicles blocking driveways or parking inappropriately between 2021-2024, though these are external to the building's operations and indicate neighborhood parking challenges rather than building-specific problems.
