In RH-2 districts are allowed one-family and two-family units or homes, with the latter commonly consisting of two large flats, one occupied by the owner and the other available for rental.
The number of residential units in the RH-2 district is calculated based on the size of the lot, but it cannot exceed 2 dwelling units per lot.
Dwelling Unit: A room or suite of two or more rooms that is designed for, or is occupied by, one family doing its own cooking therein and having only one kitchen.
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU): Also known as a Secondary Unit or In-Law Unit. It is accessory to at least one other Dwelling Unit on the same lot. A detached ADU should not share structural walls with the primary structure on the lot.
Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU): JADU is a secondary living space within a single-family home, limited to 500 square feet. It must have its own entrance, an efficiency kitchen, and can either share or have separate sanitation facilities. The property owner must live on-site unless a government agency, land trust, or housing organization owns the unit.
Structures in these districts are finely scaled, with building styles often more varied than in traditional single-family areas, though some streets and tracts remain fairly uniform. These areas may offer convenient access to shopping and transit, and while group housing or institutions may be present, nonresidential uses are generally limited.
The primary use of the Residential-House, Two Family zone is residential. The Permitted uses listed below show that additional land uses may be allowed in this zone.
Permitted Residential Use: ADU, intermediate length occupancy use, single room occupancy, student housing, homeless shelter, group housing, senior housing, and dwelling units.
Permitted Non-Residential Use: Agriculture, child care facility, passive outdoor recreation, hotel, and public facilities.
The height of a dwelling cannot exceed 40 feet.
Building height is measured from the centerline of the building. If the building steps laterally along a street, separate measurements are taken from the centerline of each step. For flat roofs, height is measured to the highest point of the finished roof, while for pitched or stepped roofs, it is measured to the average height of the rise.

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
Russian Hill’s claim to fame is Lombard Street, often called the world’s most crooked road (which isn't actually true!). Every day cars line up to drive down this one block stretch of twists and turns and tourists stand at the bottom taking pictures. But since this is the neighborhood’s only tourist attraction, Russian Hill is less of a destination and mostly a lovely residential neighborhood.
Russian Hill is bordered on the north by Fisherman's Wharf, on the east by North Beach, on the south by Nob Hill, and on the west by Pacific Heights. It keeps to itself but is tucked between very popular attractions like Fisherman’s Wharf and Ghirardelli Square to the north, areas dense with shops, restaurants, and throngs of tourists gazing out at the beautiful Marin County coastline across the Bay.
The heights can either be daunting for less resilient pedestrians or cyclists, or exhilarating for those interested in getting a workout whenever they leave the house. Buses are pretty easy to come by and the surrounding neighborhoods are within walking distance (as long as you’re willing to get a calf workout).
Thank you for your interest.
