1656 Sawtelle

Los Angeles, CA, 90025
For Sale $2,995,000
  • 0.16acre
We are pleased to present 1656 Sawtelle Boulevard, a rare opportunity to acquire a 7,005-square-foot vacant and fully cleared development site in the heart of West Los Angeles' highly desirable Sawtelle ("Little Osaka") corridor. Positioned on a prime commercial stretch of Sawtelle Boulevard, the property offers investors and developers the ability to immediately pursue entitlement and construction without the cost, delay, and uncertainty associated with demolition. The site is currently envisioned as a Mixed Income Incentive Program (MIIP) development accommodating approximately 38 units, with alternative density pathways under AB 1287 and the City's Affordable Housing Incentive Program (AHIP) potentially supporting up to approximately 52 units and six stories of development. Located minutes from UCLA, Brentwood, Century City, Santa Monica, and Silicon Beach, the property benefits from one of Southern California's strongest multifamily demand drivers. The affluent surrounding demographics, walkable retail environment, and proximity to major employment centers create a compelling foundation for future rental housing development. Adding further value, the property was previously advanced to Ready-to-Issue (RTI) plans for a 33-unit project, providing a potential opportunity to accelerate development timelines while preserving the flexibility to pursue larger density programs.
