About 4301 Howard Ave

Investor/Developer Opportunity – 4301 Howard Ave, Los Alamitos An exceptional opportunity awaits at 4301 Howard Avenue in the high-demand city of Los Alamitos. This 9,360 square foot parcel, zoned R-3 (Multi-Family Residential), is ideally suited for redevelopment or a value-add investment strategy. With a single-family home currently on site and rare dual access via both Howard Avenue and a rear alley, the lot presents a prime scenario for maximizing density and returns. The R-3 zoning designation, as defined by the City of Los Alamitos, permits the development of multiple residential units, offering a path toward constructing townhomes, duplexes, triplexes, or additional income-generating dwellings (subject to city approval). The alley access is a major asset, enabling more efficient site planning, private garages, and enhanced unit privacy—features that can support higher market rents and greater resale value. Los Alamitos is a supply-constrained submarket with limited land availability, making infill lots like this particularly valuable. The community is widely recognized for its top-rated schools, strong property values, and stability—key factors that attract quality tenants and long-term homeowners alike. Located just five miles from Seal Beach and in close proximity to major job centers, shopping, dining, and recreation—including El Dorado Park and the Los Alamitos Race Course—this property sits at the intersection of livability and investment potential. Easy access to the 405, 605, and 22 freeways further enhances connectivity, drawing professionals and families who seek the balance of convenience and suburban quality of life. With infrastructure already in place and high local demand for new housing, 4301 Howard presents a rare chance to execute a high-yield development in a premier Orange County location.
