1499 Shotwell St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 1499 Shotwell Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Iris Street Ventures LLC, was constructed in 1973 and has undergone several significant improvements over the years. Most notably, in 2019, the building underwent substantial renovations including the addition of a half bath, family room, and office in the basement, as well as kitchen cabinet removal, bathroom updates, and installation of an electric car charger in the upper unit.

Earlier improvements in 2008 included a comprehensive interior remodel of the second-floor flat, including kitchen and bathroom updates, along with the installation of a solar PV system. The building has maintained its infrastructure through necessary upgrades, including rooftop solar panels (2009), replacement of the furnace system (2008), and installation of tankless water heaters (2008). A significant compliance issue arose in 2014 when unauthorized vinyl windows were installed on property line walls, adjacent to 1497 Shotwell Street, which required subsequent correction to restore fire-rated construction.

Recent activity at the property includes a building inspection request in December 2023 and various maintenance matters in 2024 such as sidewalk defects and tree-related issues, some of which remain open as of mid-2024. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep, including reroofing projects in 1991 and 2010, though some original permits have expired. A CO detector activation incident was recorded with no injuries reported, and there have been no tenant buyouts associated with this address.
