231-233 Jules Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112

The two-unit residential building at 231-233 Jules Ave in the Ingleside neighborhood, owned by Helene Lau, has undergone significant modifications and improvements over the past two decades. The property, classified as a Flats & Duplex building, completed major renovations between 2014-2016, including the legalization of additional living spaces at the ground floor (two bedrooms, three bathrooms, laundry area, study room & living room), installation of a 200-amp electrical service with two meters, and comprehensive plumbing upgrades including new gas piping systems and bathroom facilities.

A street space and sidewalk repair was also completed in 2015. The building has experienced recurring fire safety compliance issues, with multiple violations documented between 2019 and 2024 related to fire code violations, alarm systems, extinguishers, and sprinkler/standpipe systems. Most recently, in November 2024, violations were issued for doors/blocked open conditions, sprinkler system maintenance, and emergency lighting repairs, though these were subsequently abated.

The property has also experienced infrastructure maintenance work, such as reroofing in 2006 and sidewalk sewer pipe replacement in 2014. A building complaint was filed in September 2014 regarding unauthorized permit work and excavation, though this complaint is currently listed as not active. The building's recent history (2024-2025) shows numerous parking and street maintenance issues, including multiple reports of sidewalk parking and cleaning concerns, though most of these cases were resolved without citation.
