1387-1389 27th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1387-1389 27th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Central Sunset neighborhood. Built in 1946 and currently owned by the Eileen Chan Revoc Trust, this flats & duplex building has undergone several significant modifications over the years. A major renovation occurred in 2011, involving the addition of two bedrooms and a half bathroom on the ground floor, along with electrical upgrades including new lighting, switches, and receptacles, totaling $31,000.

This renovation also included the installation of a new furnace in the basement and addressed previous issues with dry rot repairs. The building's history includes several notable violations in 2005 related to unauthorized construction, including an illegal unit with a full kitchen and bathroom in the basement, as well as ground-level rooms built without permits. These violations, which indicated unsafe living conditions due to lack of heat in bedrooms and kitchen areas, were ultimately abated by February 2013 through proper permitting and remediation work.

Earlier maintenance issues documented in the building's history include roof work in 1992 and dry rot repair of the stairway in 1989. More recent history shows a pattern of excessive noise complaints between 2020-2022, with six noise-related incidents reported in 2021 alone. The property has also experienced some minor infrastructure issues, including a streetlight flickering problem in 2013 and more recent concerns about garbage and debris (2024) and an unresolved sidewalk parking complaint (2022). While the building has undergone significant improvements over the past decade, particularly in addressing previous violations, the concentration of recent noise complaints suggests ongoing concerns about resident comfort.
