255 Precita Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 255 Precita Avenue is a three-unit multi-family residential building located in the Bernal Heights neighborhood, managed by Ayala Living Trust. Built in 1900, this one-story flats and duplex building has undergone significant improvements in recent years, with the most substantial renovation occurring between 2020-2022 involving the addition and remodeling of a lower floor unit (2 bedrooms, 2 baths) to create 8-foot finished ceilings, along with comprehensive plumbing and electrical upgrades.

The renovation period also included window replacements, bathroom and kitchen remodels, and various code compliance updates in Unit A. Historical records show previous concerns about illegal units (1994 and 2008), though these appear to have been resolved, with a 2020 administrative permit confirming the building's documented legal use as a two-story, three-unit apartment building.

Recent maintenance and service records from late 2024 indicate ongoing attention to building infrastructure, including street and sidewalk maintenance, though these external issues are generally not indicative of internal building conditions. Notably, there were two fire complaints recorded in February 2016 regarding overcrowding and blocked exits, with the former labeled as "Condition Corrected" and the latter as having "No Merit." The building's recent renovation history (2020-2022) demonstrates substantial investment in improving both living conditions and building systems, including sewer line upgrades and the installation of new tankless water heaters. The property is currently active with multiple resolved and open cases primarily related to street-level issues rather than building-specific concerns, suggesting that major structural and safety improvements have been appropriately addressed through recent permitting and construction activities.
