Olympic skier Eileen Gu's lavish family home in San Francisco is reportedly at the center of a bitter neighborhood dispute that stretches back more than 10 years and has seen multiple complaints filed against the gold medalist's family over everything from sewage problems to unsightly garbage piles.
Gu, 22, who competes for China, spent much of her childhood living in a luxury mansion in the upscale neighborhood of Sea Cliff, where her mother purchased a four-bedroom property for $1.84 million in 2010, when the skier was 7 years old.
Despite boasting a net worth of more than $23 million, Gu—who claimed one gold and two silver medals at the 2026 Winter Olympics—is not thought to have ever purchased her own property, instead continuing to reside with her mother at the Sea Cliff mansion, when she is not traveling the world for work.
But that same home is now at the center of a rather ugly neighborhood battle, according to a new report by The San Francisco Standard, which alleges that the latest twist in the Sea Cliff spat involves an unsightly pile of garbage that was left piled up outside the property on June 8.
According to the outlet, "an enormous pile of trash and furniture" was dumped on the sidewalk outside the property, which was originally built in 1925 and is now worth $5 million, with images published by The Standard capturing a haphazard collection of old shelves, a couch, a mattress, what appears to be a disused suitcase, and cardboard boxes filled with abandoned clothing, books, and other detritus in front of the Gu residence.
