About This Property

Offered for the first time this century, this vacant and versatile property presents a rare opportunity to reimagine or redevelop with potential for up to 4 units. Situated on a spacious 6,002 square foot lot, the property is currently configured as 2 units and an ADU, plus a detached 2 car garage at the end of a long gated driveway providing ample parking and a compound-like setting. Zoned R-3* High Density Residential, the City of Hawthorne has indicated potential for up to 4 units, based on approximately 1 unit per 1,452 square feet of lot size (Buyer to verify) with site-specific conditions to be reviewed with the City. The front residence features an enclosed yard with a privacy hedge, stone and brick accents, stately pillars, and a charming front porch. Inside, the living room leads to 2 bedrooms and a full hall bathroom with classic tile, plus a hall closet. A spacious eat-in kitchen offers granite slab countertops, abundant cabinetry, and room for dining. An adjacent bonus area with a door out to the middle patio/driveway provides flexibility as an office and transition space with access to the second unit. A dedicated sliding glass door serves as the primary entry to the second unit, opening to the main living space, featuring an open great room layout that combines the living, dining, and kitchen areas, along with a full bathroom and 2 generous bedrooms, including a rear bedroom overlooking the backyard. At the back of the lot, the detached garage is complemented by a separately accessed ADU with its own kitchen, living area with a closet, and full bathroom, ideal for additional income or extended living once remodeled. The grounds are enhanced with tropical landscaping, including mango, lemon, and tangerine trees, passionfruit vines, plus blooming bougainvillea and hibiscus. Ideally located mid-block in a well-established community, this property is convenient to the bustling Rosecrans corridor, 405 and 105 freeways, Alondra Park, El Camino College, vibrant restaurants, bougie breweries, and the greater South Bay. Nearby schools at all levels further enhance long-term appeal for both tenants and owner-users. Live in 1 unit and generate income from the others, renovate and reposition, or build new to maximize the potential. Opportunities like this, fully vacant and ready for immediate action, are increasingly rare. Act now to secure this exceptional value-add offering to reimagine, invest, or build in the heart of the South Bay before it is gone.
