1234-1236 Church St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The 1234-1236 Church Street property in Noe Valley is a three-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Adsanatham Kansinee. The building has undergone substantial renovations in recent years, with significant work completed between 2014-2020, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, electrical rewiring, and the installation of fire-rated drywall.

The most recent improvements, totaling approximately $40,000, were completed in 2020 and included a kitchen remodel, electrical rewiring, and HVAC system replacement. However, there are serious concerns regarding the building's current unit configuration and history of violations, as planning records indicate unauthorized unit mergers and modifications, including the conversion of two affordable housing units into a single-family dwelling and the removal of a front door in 2015/2016.

The property has experienced recurring sewer issues in recent years, with two sewage backup incidents reported in 2024, and has a history of building violations from 2001 and 2007 related to fire safety, structural integrity, and interior maintenance, all of which were eventually abated. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including roof replacement in 2001 and various code compliance issues, though some historical routine violations from 2001 and 2007 raised concerns about building safety and maintenance.
