1248 Treat Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-unit residential building at 1248 Treat Ave in the Inner Mission, owned by the Lee Mark Azus Trust, has undergone significant renovations and improvements since its construction in 1900. Most recently, in 2023, the property received an electrical upgrade with the installation of a new 50-amp induction stove and the removal of knob and tube wiring to accommodate insulation, along with the addition of three smoke detectors.

Between 2018-2019, substantial exterior work was performed including facade restoration, replacement of aluminum siding with original wood siding, window upgrades, and installation of a new half bath on the first floor. The building has received consistent maintenance attention over the years, with multiple bathroom remodels (2009, 2011, 2018), kitchen renovations (2011), and structural improvements addressing issues such as dryrot repairs in 2011 that involved significant wall and subfloor repairs. Historical records indicate some serious safety concerns in the early 2000s, particularly between 2000-2001, when violations were documented regarding fire safety, combustible storage, handrails, smoke detection, and lighting, all of which were subsequently abated.

A 2006 complaint about unauthorized remodeling work was resolved by 2008. Recent years have shown a pattern of urban challenges in the immediate vicinity, with multiple reports of encampments and debris issues between late 2024 and early 2025, though these external factors do not directly reflect on the building's condition. The property has maintained active compliance with building codes since addressing the early violations, with all recent permits being properly obtained and completed for various improvements including plumbing and electrical upgrades.
