Executive Summary
4917 International Boulevard presents a prime redevelopment opportunity featuring a 12,770-square-foot single-tenant retail building on a 0.38-acre lot. Positioned on a prominent hard corner, 4917 International Boulevard combines a retail storefront with warehouse storage, high ceilings, four drive-in doors, and billboard/signage potential, creating a flexible physical layout that supports continued commercial use or future repositioning.
Formerly leased to Kelly-Moore Paint Company Corporate since 1976, the asset carries the stability and visibility of a long-standing commercial location while offering meaningful upside through its zoning and tax-advantaged profile. RU-5 zoning allows for approximately 54 residential units, establishing a strong by right multifamily baseline, while the S-13 affordable housing overlay provides a bonus height incentive that can increase the site’s overall development potential. Combined with its Opportunity Zone designation, the asset stands out as a rare infill investment that can support retail, mixed-use, multifamily, or affordable housing strategies while materially enhancing after-tax return potential.
Set directly on International Boulevard, one of Oakland’s major commercial arteries, 4917 International Boulevard delivers unrivaled visibility to 25,000 daily vehicles. The corridor supports a broad mix of retail and services and draws steady traffic from nearby employers, including Quaker, PepsiCo, Gatorade, and the Amazon distribution center. The site sits 1 mile from Interstate 880, creating efficient regional access, and benefits from AC Transit’s Tempo Bus Rapid Transit service, which strengthens connectivity across Oakland and links the corridor to Downtown Oakland, Fruitvale BART, and other key employment centers. In addition, 4917 International Boulevard is within 1.5 miles of Oakland Arena and Rickey Henderson Field.
Oakland is home to an estimated 490,000 residents within a 5-mile radius and ranks among California’s largest cities, with 30,000 businesses contributing to the region’s economic strength. Median household incomes exceeded $101,000, and the city includes 185,000 households, with continued household growth supporting future demand. Within this dense residential setting, the neighborhood maintains a strong local customer base and has historically remained underserved by retail and services, opening the door for grocery and convenience uses, medical or wellness concepts, food and beverage operators, and mixed-use residential development. That dynamic gives 4917 International Boulevard relevance both as an income-producing commercial location and as a redevelopment site aligned with Oakland’s need for housing and neighborhood-serving uses.
