580-582 Ellsworth St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 580-582 Ellsworth Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Jeff John B Yambao Living Trust, is a single-story flats and duplex structure built in 1954. The property has undergone several significant infrastructure upgrades, most notably the complete replacement of both water services from street to house in December 2016, and a gas houseline extension in November 2008. There have been some concerning issues in recent years, including a 2018 plumbing complaint regarding rusty water leakage near the garage that was promptly addressed within a month, and multiple 2024 reports of sidewalk-related problems, including a collapsed sidewalk (currently open) and building inspection request.

The building's maintenance history shows attempts to revert spaces to their original uses, such as a 1996 permit to remove appliances and revert to storage room, though this permit was ultimately cancelled. The property has experienced several notable incidents over the years, including historical complaints about an illegal unit in the basement (filed in 1996 and abated in 1998) and debris issues in the yard (1997). Recent activity in 2024 has shown multiple reports regarding garbage and debris, including missed trash collections and furniture issues, though most were resolved promptly.

There have been two smoke detector activations recorded by fire services, both confirmed as false alarms with no injuries. The building's plumbing infrastructure has been a focus of attention, with the 2016 water service replacement being the most recent significant upgrade, while recent municipal complaints have indicated ongoing infrastructure concerns in the vicinity, including multiple water main breaks reported in September 2024. Two notable tenant buyouts occurred in 2015 at nearby addresses (600 Gates Street), suggesting potential market volatility in the immediate area, though these transactions do not directly relate to the subject property.
