454-456 Utah St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 454-456 Utah Street in Potrero Hill, owned by Andrew C. Ho and Julia Law, is a 1906 flats/duplex structure that has undergone significant renovations and updates over the past few years. In 2020, the property underwent extensive improvements including kitchen and bathroom remodels in both units ($90,000), conversion of laundry rooms into habitable space, removal of a load-bearing wall and chimney ($50,000), installation of a new heat pump system with ductwork replacement ($20,000), complete plumbing system overhaul including new drains, vents, water and gas pipes, water heaters ($20,000), and comprehensive electrical upgrades ($125,000) including new sub-panels and safety features.

More recently, in 2021, the building received a new roof ($13,000). The property has maintained regular habitation and code compliance, with only one minor plumbing permit violation noted in 2002 that was promptly addressed within one day. A tenant buyout occurred in March 2020 for $65,000 involving one tenant.

Recent 311 calls related to the property have primarily concerned parking issues, with multiple cases of driveway blocking resulting in citations between 2021-2024, and occasional street cleaning matters. There have been no reported building code violations or safety concerns in recent years, and all major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) have been updated to current standards. The building's recent renovations suggest substantial investment in improving tenant living conditions, with particular attention paid to modernizing systems and expanding usable space.
