239-241 Peabody St, San Francisco, CA 94134

The 239-241 Peabody Street property, situated in San Francisco's Visitacion Valley neighborhood, is a three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1950, containing two units and owned by Peter Lu and Joan Guo. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past few years, with the most substantial renovation occurring in 2017-2018 when approximately 470 square feet of basement space was remodeled to create a playroom with a half bathroom, while also relocating the existing water heater and enclosing the laundry room. This renovation included associated plumbing and electrical work, and was completed at a cost of $62,000.

Additional infrastructure upgrades include a complete roof replacement documented in 1992 and a 200-amp electrical service upgrade completed in March 2018. The building's maintenance and incident record shows one notable infrastructure issue - a sewage backup incident in June 2021 involving a 4-inch vent, which was resolved by the PUC Sewer Operations team. The surrounding area has experienced various typical urban issues, as evidenced by 311 calls, including two instances of abandoned Christmas trees, general street cleaning needs, and some encampment-related concerns in 2021. There were also a few parking-related incidents and sign repair needs recorded between 2019 and 2021, though these were primarily related to public infrastructure rather than the building itself.

Planning records indicate a past review related to the installation of a half bathroom with direct access and visual considerations, though this appears to have been resolved. The property's most recent major improvements - including comprehensive basement remodeling, electrical service upgrade, and water heater relocation - demonstrate ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts by the current owners. The building's systems appear to have received appropriate upgrades over time, with no recent infrastructure issues recorded since the 2021 sewage incident, which was an isolated occurrence. The frequency of 311 calls has decreased significantly in recent years, with 2023 showing only two street-related service requests.
