485 Liberty St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-unit residential building at 485 Liberty Street, located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, is a 1941 two-story flats/duplex structure currently owned by the Rindfuss-Miller 2019 Living Trust. The property has undergone significant renovation and maintenance work over the past five years, with the most recent work completed in September 2024 involving repairs to dry rot and stucco on the south exterior wall. Between 2018-2019, the building underwent substantial improvements including foundation reinforcement, soft-story garage door improvements, and multiple window replacements.

The electrical system was upgraded to 200amp service during a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel in 2018, which included furnace and ductwork replacement. The building has experienced some maintenance and safety issues, most notably in April 2018 when complaints were filed regarding unsafe paint scraping work being conducted without protective netting. There have been several plumbing and sewer-related incidents reported through 311 calls in 2022, including water leaks and a damaged sewer vent cover, though these appear to have been resolved.

The property has maintained an active maintenance schedule, with regular updates to windows, heating systems, and structural elements, demonstrating ongoing upkeep by the current ownership. While there have been multiple 311 calls in recent years, most relate to street and sidewalk conditions rather than building-specific issues. A significant tenant buyout was recorded in April 2018 for $50,000.
