1442-1444 Funston Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1442-1444 Funston Avenue is a 3-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, built in 1947 and currently owned by the Terry Family Revocable Trust 2017. In 2017, the building underwent significant renovations costing $500,000, which included reconfiguring unit 1442 into a 2-bedroom, 3-bath layout and unit 1444 into a larger 4-bedroom, 3-bath configuration, along with expanding the lower unit into ground floor storage space and adding a new rear deck. The renovation work also encompassed comprehensive upgrades including new plumbing throughout (two kitchens, 5.5 baths), electrical systems, and heating elements, including the installation of condensing boilers and radiant heating systems in late 2018.

The project received proper permits and inspections, though some permits for new furnaces were canceled. Prior to the renovation, both units were vacated through a tenant buyout process in April 2017, with compensation of $42,000 provided to two tenants. The building has had regular maintenance issues, including illegal postings and graffiti incidents reported through 311 calls in 2016 and 2018, though these appear to be minor neighborhood issues rather than building-specific concerns.

Historical records show earlier building maintenance work from 2006 included reroofing, and more recent street space permits were issued in 2018-2019. The property underwent substantial infrastructure modernization during the 2017-2018 renovation period, including a complete electrical system upgrade to 200 amps, installation of two 50-gallon water heaters, and comprehensive plumbing system updates. The renovation work was methodically documented through various permits and planning records, with particular attention paid to maintaining existing building envelope requirements and minimizing exterior modifications.
