478 27th St, San Francisco, CA 94131

The property at 478 27th Street in Noe Valley is a two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Wendy Scott Bertrand Living. The building has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime, with the most recent being a complete roof replacement in October 2023 involving the installation of 30-year composition shingles at a cost of $15,000.

Historical records show various maintenance and improvement projects, including the installation of a sewage ejector system (1986), replacement of wooden retaining walls with concrete walls (1984), and the addition of a horizontal wood deck (1987). The property has undergone important structural changes, including a variance approval that permitted the conversion from a single-family to a two-family dwelling and the creation of an open parking space, though this resulted in a reduction of the rear yard space to 5 feet, below the required 15 feet.

More recent external maintenance issues have been primarily related to the surrounding infrastructure, including an open pavement defect reported in April 2024 and various parking-related incidents. There have been multiple service requests regarding street maintenance and parking enforcement between 2016 and 2024, including responses to illegal postings, overgrown trees, and temporary moving sign requests. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with most permitted work being completed successfully, though some older permits from the 1980s did expire without completion.
