23-25 Clipper St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-unit residential building at 23-25 Clipper Street in Noe Valley, owned by Tony S S King, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The property experienced significant damage in August 2022 when a fire occurred, reportedly originating from the neighboring building at 31 Clipper Street. This incident resulted in approximately 1,000 square feet of damage requiring substantial repairs, including replacement of wall studs, ceiling wood, damaged windows, and restoration of compromised electrical systems, with the repair work completed at a cost of $122,125 in early 2023.

The building has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a reroofing project in November 2022 ($23,000), electrical system repairs following the fire (January 2023), and the replacement of two water heaters (April 2023). Historical records show earlier maintenance work including termite treatment (1990), bathroom renovation (1987), and various repairs in the early 2000s, though some permits from that period show as expired. The property has been responsive to routine maintenance needs, with records indicating gas line replacement in 2016 and various plumbing upgrades.

The building has experienced minimal external issues, with only routine municipal services recorded through 311 calls, primarily relating to street cleaning and tree maintenance in the vicinity. The property's recent history shows active management and prompt attention to significant damage caused by external factors, with all repairs and improvements properly documented through building, plumbing, and electrical permits. The building's recent permit activity, particularly following the 2022 fire incident, demonstrates substantial investment in restoring the property to safe and habitable conditions.
