164-166 Lower Ter, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-unit residential building at 164-166 Lower Terrace in Corona Heights, constructed in 1906, has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the past 15 years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2020-2023. The property, currently owned by the Dana Beard Living Trust, has seen multiple major renovation projects including a 2020-2022 third-floor remodel ($84,000) that added new skylights and washer/dryer facilities, and 2022 improvements including dry rot repairs and siding replacement.

A notable cluster of improvements occurred in 2008-2009, including the construction of a below-grade garage ($65,000), kitchen and bathroom remodels ($75,000), and comprehensive electrical and plumbing upgrades throughout the building. The property has faced several compliance and legal issues, particularly in 1998 with complaints of possible illegal unit violations, and in 2020 regarding unpermitted construction work that reportedly included plumbing, HVAC, and skylight installations on the property line, though these issues appear to have been resolved through subsequent permits and inspections. Recent activity at the property has primarily involved routine maintenance and external issues, including multiple reports of fallen trees in late 2024 and several parking enforcement actions in early 2025.

The building's systems have been regularly maintained and upgraded, with the most recent work in 2023 including electrical work for upper floor level remodels and plumbing installations. The property has also been subject to typical urban maintenance issues, with several 311 calls regarding street cleaning, graffiti, and parking enforcement. All major building permits and improvements have been properly documented and completed through appropriate channels, with no recent complaints or violations on record that would pose a significant concern for current or prospective tenants.
