Marketing description
Coastal Commercial is pleased to present an exceptional investment opportunity at 1606 N. El Camino Real, located in the heart of San Clemente, California. This coastal property features a 4,306 square foot building situated on a 12,197 square foot lot, just minutes from the beach and San Clemente’s vibrant downtown corridor. Ideally positioned only one mile from the iconic “T-Zone”—a thriving retail and dining hub at Avenida Del Mar and N. El Camino Real— this property is also within a 5-minute walk to North Beach and steps away from the historic Miramar Theater, a local landmark currently undergoing revitalization. The area is a well-traveled destination for both residents and visitors, contributing to strong year-round foot traffic.
Originally constructed in 1952, this is the first time the property has been offered for sale, marking a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of San Clemente’s legacy. The current tenant’s lease expires on 12/31/2025 offering flexibility for owner-users, investors, or developers seeking to reposition or redevelop.
Zoned MU2 (North El Camino Real Mixed-Use), this district is tailored for community and visitor-serving uses, supporting entertainment, retail, coastal recreation, and mixed-use development. The site’s high visibility along N. El Camino Real, combined with strong vehicular and pedestrian traffic, enhances its appeal and long-term value.
With its prime location, zoning advantages, and significant upside potential, 1606 N. El Camino Real presents a rare opportunity to secure a legacy asset
