Description

The Champions Drive property presents a rare opportunity to acquire nearly 7 acres (±300,564 SF) of commercially zoned land in the growing City of Calimesa, CA. Located along Champions Drive with immediate access and visibility to the I-10 Freeway (±150,000 vehicles daily), the site is strategically positioned to capture long-term demand from the Inland Empire’s expansion. Designated Community Commercial (CC), the site is envisioned as a Class A self-storage development, leveraging favorable demographics and limited local competition. Preliminary plans indicate the potential for approximately 150,000 square feet of rentable space across multiple single-story buildings, including an office/manager’s unit, customer parking, and various storage options. The design also accommodates RV parking and wide drive aisles for large vehicles. The current design is conceptual and has not been submitted for city review, allowing flexibility for developers to refine the site plan or explore other commercial uses. The property is well-suited for a storage facility, retail center, or community-serving use. Surrounded by established residential neighborhoods and new housing communities, the site has over 50,000 residents within a three-mile radius, with median household incomes of $75,000 to $95,000. This creates a strong customer base for self-storage, with local average occupancy rates above 90%. Champions Drive offers excellent accessibility and branding potential, connecting to residential areas and commercial corridors, with unmatched exposure for signage. Few parcels of this size remain available in the Calimesa/Beaumont corridor, making this a standout opportunity for developers or investors. In summary, the Champions Drive parcel is a prime development opportunity in one of the Inland Empire’s fastest-growing corridors. With nearly 7 acres of Community Commercial land and conceptual plans for a ±150,000 SF self-storage project, this property offers significant upside for developers looking to meet high demand.
