1615-1617 48th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1615-1617 48th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit residential building constructed in 1987 and currently owned by the Irene Meshman Revocable Living Trust. The building has undergone significant renovations in 2022, including complete reroofing work costing $20,000, replacement of 12 front windows with fiberglass units ($14,500), and extensive interior modifications including kitchen and bathroom remodeling, removal of partition walls, lighting upgrades, and laundry facility relocations in both units ($100,000). These improvements were accompanied by the installation of new water heaters and electrical circuits.

Prior to these renovations, the building faced several maintenance challenges, including dry rot issues in 2018 that resulted in violations, though these were resolved by August 2022 when new siding was installed. Historical complaints from 2011 indicated problems with common area maintenance and pest control, though these were addressed at the time. The property has experienced some compliance challenges over the years, including a violation in 2018 related to unauthorized window replacements and revocation of a siding permit due to improper documentation, though these issues were subsequently resolved.

A recent complaint was filed in November 2022 regarding potential unauthorized work beyond the scope of a roofing permit, though this was marked as not active within a week. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, evidenced by the recent improvements and resolution of previous violations. The property has generated several 311 calls in 2024, primarily related to parking issues, holiday debris removal, and graffiti, though these are typical neighborhood concerns and not directly related to building maintenance or habitability. The property's recent history suggests active management and maintenance, particularly with the substantial improvements made in 2022 to address both aesthetic and functional aspects of the building.
