1053 Tennessee St, San Francisco, CA 94107

The property at 1053 Tennessee Street is a two-unit multi-family residential building consisting of a main house and a rear cottage, both located on a single parcel. The building underwent significant renovations in 2017-2018, including a gut rehabilitation of the rear accessory dwelling to create a new unit with one bedroom and bathroom, as well as substantial additions to the main house that added new kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom facilities.

Both structures received comprehensive electrical upgrades, including the installation of solar panels in early 2020, with three separate solar installations totaling approximately 8.56 kW. The property has experienced some maintenance and infrastructure challenges, with records showing plumbing issues in early 2020 involving a sewer backup incident, and a series of plumbing and electrical permit renewals between 2018-2020. Several maintenance improvement projects were proposed and completed, including a roof replacement on the main house (though one permit for this work was cancelled) and various bathroom and kitchen remodels.

Recent history shows limited resident impact from the building's systems, with the most recent maintenance being the replacement of furnaces and water heaters in late 2020. The property has had minimal complaints or issues reported through 311 calls, with the most recent being a non-offensive graffiti incident in October 2023. Historical planning records indicate various exterior improvements and restoration efforts, including window additions and maintenance of deteriorated exterior conditions, with several permits showing either withdrawal or completion status under the direction of McGriff Architects.
