52-54 Alvarado St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 52-54 Alvarado Street in Noe Valley is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, containing three units and currently owned by the Reyes Maria Revoc Interv Tr. The building has undergone several significant renovations in recent years, with substantial work completed in 2022 including a comprehensive bathroom and kitchen renovation ($20,000), electrical upgrades (new 400-amp service with four meter sockets), and the installation of a new electric fireplace.

Prior improvements include rear stair replacement (2016) and window upgrades (1989). Of particular concern are recent habitability issues documented in April 2023, when multiple violations were issued including problems with lead-based paint, water damage, wall repairs, and interior surface deterioration in Unit 54A. These violations were abated by June 2023, suggesting timely remediation but indicating previous maintenance challenges.

The building underwent routine maintenance in 2007 and has seen various housing-related inspections. The surrounding area has experienced periodic street cleaning issues, particularly in 2024, though these are external to the building itself. All recent building permits have been properly completed, demonstrating compliance with city regulations, though the property history indicates ongoing maintenance requirements typical of older buildings.
