Situated along North Tustin Avenue in the City of Orange, surrounded by established auto dealerships, retail centers, and industrial users. Minutes from Tustin Auto Center, the 55 Freeway on-ramp, and the Orange/Santa Ana commercial corridor. Workforce housing, restaurants, and services are all within walking distance.FOR LEASE | 1543 North Tustin Avenue, Orange, CA 92867
±47,916 SF Secured Commercial Lot | Zoned Auto/Commercial
A fully fenced, gated, and secured 1.1-acre yard in the middle of one of Southern California's densest and highest-income submarkets, and one of the last of its kind inside the Orange County urban core.
1543 North Tustin Avenue is ±47,916 square feet of flat, usable commercial land with controlled gate access and prime frontage on North Tustin Avenue. The site is zoned Auto/Commercial and is currently permitted for vehicle parking and storage, with occupancy available September 2026.
This is secured, ground-level yard space: no building to work around, no shared access, no tenant next door in your way. You take the gate, you take the ground, and you run your operation the way it actually needs to run.
CENTRAL TO A DENSE, HIGH-INCOME POPULATION
This is not an outlying yard an hour from your customers. It is a secured operating site sitting in the geographic and economic center of Orange County.
673,219 residents and 193,042 households within a five-mile radius
Residential density of ±3,743 people per square mile in the immediate ZIP (92867)
Median household income of $125,799, among the strongest consumer bases in the region
SR-55, I-5, and SR-91 access places nearly every major Orange County business corridor within a 20-minute drive
For a dealership, that density is inventory sitting next to buyers instead of two counties away. For a contractor or equipment operator, it is crews and machines staged inside the market they serve every morning, not fighting a 60-mile commute in from the Inland Empire before the first job starts.
IDEAL USES
New and pre-owned vehicle inventory: dealership overflow, staging, and reconditioning
Construction equipment, heavy machinery, and contractor staging / laydown yard
Fleet and commercial truck parking
Rental equipment storage and dispatch
Contractor material and supply storage
Secured seasonal or surge inventory parking
Flat load-bearing ground, gate-controlled entry, perimeter fencing, and street frontage sized for transport and delivery access.
WHY THIS SITE IS DIFFICULT TO REPLACE
Orange County industrial vacancy stands at 5.1%, and the development pipeline has fallen to roughly 845,000 SF, the lowest level since 2020, because land is scarce and speculative construction no longer pencils. Secured outdoor yard land inside the urban core is scarcer still: decades of infill development have absorbed nearly every parcel of it, and municipalities are not entitling new ones.
Inside dense metro Orange County, the combination of ground-level access, heavy-load capacity, freeway proximity, and a locked gate is close to unrepeatable. Sites like this come available once and are typically off the market for years.
