654 Precita Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building at 654 Precita Ave in Bernal Heights, owned by Matthew F. Barrett, has undergone significant renovations since 2014, with major work completed on both the interior and exterior.

The most substantial improvements occurred between September 2014 and early 2015, including a comprehensive renovation of both units featuring kitchen and bathroom remodels, electrical and plumbing upgrades, replacement of seven windows, and structural work on the first floor including a new water heater and furnace installation. The property also received sustainable upgrades with the installation of an 18-panel solar PV system in 2017, though this permit has since expired, as did a subsequent gas furnace changeout in 2016. Recent maintenance and safety issues have emerged, with two new open cases documented in 2024: a damaged tree with a hanging limb and concerns about makeshift parking in the front yard.

The building's immediate surroundings have experienced various municipal service calls, primarily for parking violations and street maintenance, though these are more related to the neighborhood than the building itself. Historical records show attention to infrastructure maintenance, including a 2022 issue with a missing side sewer vent cover and multiple instances of sidewalk cleaning needed in response to waste disposal issues between 2016 and 2019. The property has demonstrated significant investment in modernization and sustainability improvements over the past decade, though recent open cases suggest some ongoing maintenance and regulatory compliance issues that may require attention.
