2025-2027 Lawton St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-unit residential building at 2025-2027 Lawton Street in the Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by the Shannon A Chin 2021 Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1945. The most recent major renovation occurred in 2015, involving comprehensive kitchen and bathroom upgrades in both units, including new fixtures, LED lighting, and electrical work totaling approximately $30,000.

Earlier improvements included the replacement of two furnaces in 2014 ($5,000), window replacements in 2008 ($54,000) consisting of eight new windows at the rear with improved energy efficiency ratings, and earlier siding work completed in 1986. The building experienced some maintenance issues in 2016 when residents reported problems with storm gutters at the front of the building that were allegedly causing water intrusion into the adjacent property at 2017 Lawton Street, though these violations were abated within two months.

There was also a period of construction-related concerns in 2014, with multiple complaints about unpermitted work and furnace replacements, though these issues were subsequently addressed and permits obtained. The property has had several parking-related complaints in recent years, particularly regarding driveway blockages, with multiple incidents reported between 2017 and 2024, though parking enforcement responses have generally resulted in either inability to locate the vehicles or resolved cases. The building's systems and infrastructure have been regularly maintained and upgraded through various permits, with particular attention to electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems, suggesting ongoing responsiveness to building code requirements and modernization needs.
