Dwelling Unit Density Exception is a new ordinance in San Francisco that allows 4 units on any RH lot and 6 units for corner lots if the project follows certain restrictions.
The One-Family (Detached Dwellings) Districts feature lots with greater width and area than other city parts, hosting single-family houses with side yards. Development often occurs in sizable tracts, exhibiting similarities in building styles, and narrow streets following hill contours. Private covenants in some cases guide development and contribute to maintaining the character of street areas.
Permitted Residential Uses: ADU, dwelling units (one unit per lot), intermediate length occupancy, single room occupancy, student housing and senior housing.
Permitted Non-Residential Uses: Agriculture (neighborhood), passive outdoor recreation, child care facility, public facilities, residential care facility and wireless telecommunications services facility.
No portion of a dwelling can exceed a height of 40 feet, except that the permitted height has to be reduced to 35 feet where the average ground elevation at the rear line of the lot is lower by 20 or more feet than at the front line. The height is measured by taking a point at the centerline of the building or, where the building steps in relation to a street that is the basis for height measurement. Separate points need to be taken at the centerline of each building step. The upper point is the highest point on the finished roof in the case of a flat roof, and the average height of the rise in the case of a pitched or stepped roof.
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), also called secondary units, in-law units, or cottages, are units added to existing and new residential buildings. Adding an ADU to your property can provide several benefits, such as providing housing for family members, simplifying your lifestyle, and increased financial flexibility.Learn more about building ADUs
"This is one of the best neighborhoods in the City, if the the Bay. It is safe, friendly and full of beautiful homes." People who live here love it here. While this neighborhood is further removed from the central core of the City it still has a tight-knit feel. The streets feel broader and wider with a large numbers of 2-unit buildings that are either condos or income properties; large apartment buildings, most with garages on the street level. As you get closer to the Presidio and to Land’s End you’ll find some large, if not stunning houses. Most structures here are stucco and older and you’ll find the occasional TIC units.
