248 San Jose Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

248 San Jose Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Noe Valley, built in 1900 and currently owned by Melissa A Johnson and Rosenth. The property has undergone significant improvements in recent years, with the most substantial work focusing on foundational and safety upgrades. Recent improvements include a completed $35,000 garage foundation extension in 2022, $50,000 garage foundation repairs in 2021, and a $11,461 fire alarm system upgrade in 2021 that included new smoke detectors, pull stations, and wireless sounders.

The building has also seen infrastructure improvements such as the installation of a 5.76kW solar system in 2021, complete electrical system upgrades including a new 80-amp sub-panel in 2022, and comprehensive basement remodeling with modern electrical features. The property's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including reroofing in 2021 ($18,000), bathroom remodeling in 2020, and various plumbing upgrades. However, there were notable issues in the past, particularly a cluster of violations in 2007 related to heating, interior surfaces, and water damage, along with fire safety concerns.

These violations were abated by December 2007. The building underwent a unit merger in 2007, removing kitchen appliances and combining the two units into one. Recent infrastructure improvements and the absence of active violations suggest improved maintenance practices, though there is one active complaint from 1999 regarding improper wall coverings following plumbing work. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban maintenance issues as evidenced by 311 calls, though these are primarily street-level concerns not directly related to the building's condition.
