Kott & Company, Inc. is pleased to present the opportunity to acquire an automotive repair property consisting of approximately ±2,250 square feet of building area situated on a ±12,271 square foot lot in the City of La Mirada, California. This offering presents an excellent opportunity for an owner-user or investor to acquire a well-located automotive property zoned C-4 (General Commercial) within the City of La Mirada’s Imperial Highway Specific Plan (“IHSP”) area. The tenant may vacate the property upon or shortly after the close of escrow, allowing flexibility for an owner-user or future repositioning.
The property is strategically located near the signalized intersection of Imperial Highway and Valley View Avenue, providing high visibility on Imperial Highway which is the main corridor connecting Orange County and Los Angeles County. Imperial Highway traffic counts are reported at approximately 27,569 vehicles per day (2024), offering excellent exposure to passing motorists and surrounding commercial activity. The property benefits from two points of access, including a one-way driveway from Corely Drive and the primary ingress and egress directly from Imperial Highway.
The property is currently occupied by Leon’s Transmission, an established automotive repair business who has been in business for 56+ years. Ownership has indicated the tenant may be willing to negotiate a short-term leaseback arrangement with a new owner to allow time for relocation of the business operations.
Originally constructed in 1960, the improvements consist of block, wood-frame, and stucco construction and include a lobby, one restroom, three above-ground lifts, four in-ground service bays for a total of seven automotive bays. Additional features include three ground-level roll-up doors, a front manual sliding gate, and an approximately 12-foot ceiling height, offering functionality for a variety of automotive and commercial uses.
The property is located within the City of La Mirada’s Imperial Highway Specific Plan (“IHSP”), a specialized planning district intended to promote corridor enhancement, commercial reinvestment, and long-term economic growth along the Imperial Highway corridor. The site offers convenient access to Interstate 5 via both Imperial Highway and Valley View Avenue exits and is centrally located within the greater Southeast Los Angeles County and North Orange County markets.
Buyers are advised to verify permitted uses, zoning regulations, parking requirements, and development standards directly with the City of La Mirada Planning Department.
