Land for Sale in Los Angeles, CA

4866 E Granada St presents an attractive vacant residential infill opportunity in the hillside community of Highland Park / Northeast Los Angeles. The property consists of an approximately 5,739.9 sq. ft. lot zoned R1-1-HCR, with a Low Residential General Plan land use designation. The parcel is located within the Mount Washington-Glassell Park Specific Plan and the Northeast Los Angeles Hillside Construction Regulation District, making it best suited for a carefully designed hillside single-family residence. The lot is surrounded by established residential development and fronts Granada St, offering an investor the potential to create a custom hillside home in a desirable Los Angeles neighborhood. The site is currently identified by the Assessor as vacant residential land, with no existing building data shown, which may provide a clean redevelopment canvas subject to City review and utility confirmation. From a feasibility standpoint, the property benefits from being outside a mapped flood zone, with no mapped landslide, liquefaction, methane hazard, watercourse, stream, oil well adjacency, or Alquist-Priolo Fault Zone designation shown in the ZIMAS report. However, the lot is located in a Hillside Area, a Special Grading Area, and a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, so future development should anticipate hillside design, grading, fire access, drainage, geotechnical, and utility due diligence. For investors, this property should be viewed as a value-add hillside development opportunity rather than a simple flat-lot build. The likely highest and best use is a new custom single-family residence, potentially in the +/-1,800-2,400 sq. ft. range depending on survey, slope analysis, grading limits, street access, fire-flow availability, and Specific Plan review. The property's location, zoning, and vacant status make it a compelling acquisition candidate, but underwriting should include contingencies for survey/topography, utility availability, sewer connection feasibility, fire-flow confirmation, and geotechnical review.
