28 Woodland Ave, San Francisco, CA 94117

The two-unit residential building at 28 Woodland Avenue, located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1907 and currently owned by Jennifer Brownlow. The property has undergone several significant renovations and improvements in recent years, most notably in 2024, when comprehensive upgrades were performed in Unit A, including a kitchen remodel ($38,000) and the removal of non-bearing walls.

The building is in the process of legalizing a previously non-permitted lower level living area as an extension of the second-floor unit, which involves updating fire ratings, insulation, window modifications, and HVAC systems. This project is accompanied by corresponding electrical work to update wiring, eliminate knob and tube systems, and upgrade electrical infrastructure, with permits issued and completed in early 2024. Earlier improvements to the building's infrastructure include panel replacement and kitchen/bathroom legalization work completed in late 2022, and a roofing project completed in 1997.

The property has experienced some maintenance issues, including a sewage backup incident in December 2023 that was promptly resolved by PUC Sewer Operations. Earlier records show some abandoned vehicle cases in the vicinity in 2019, but these were unrelated to the building's condition. The recent and ongoing renovations suggest active property management and upgrading of the building's systems, with particular attention to electrical safety and living space compliance.
