Property Description
Discover this 0.26-acre vacant lot in the heart of Thermal, Imperial County. Just over 11,000 sq ft (0.256 acre), this residentially zoned parcel offers a blank canvas for a dream manufactured or stick-built home or a strategic speculative investment. Utilities are available and HOA fees are just $15/month. The lot is surrounded by affordable parcels, with nearby comps ranging from $12K to $16K, offering great value in a region poised for growth. Located near Sea View Elementary and West Shores High School, the property is within easy reach of Coachella Valley's expanding amenities shopping, dining, and major freeways while also nestled in a quiet, open neighborhood with big potential. The broader Salton Sea region is undergoing a resurgence fueled by infrastructure investment, environmental restoration, and the emergence of clean energy innovation. Salton City just minutes away grew from 3,763 residents in 2010 to 5,155 in 2020. Yet over 80% of lots remain undeveloped, offering early access to a transforming market. On the southeast side of the Salton Sea, major restoration efforts are underway. The Species Conservation Habitat (SCH) Project, launched in 2021, is expanding thousands of acres of wetlands to combat dust, improve air quality, and support endangered wildlife. As of 2025, over 2,000 acres are already active with water flow, backed by $250 million in federal funds and $70 million more approved in late 2024. Community leaders are also pushing for a revitalized recreational shoreline bike and walking trails, shaded family areas, and public spaces connecting North Shore to nearby state parks. These plans aim to bring both environmental renewal and tourism growth to the region. Thermal and the southern Salton Sea are also at the center of the U.S. lithium boom. Known as Lithium Valley, the area holds some of the richest geothermal brine deposits in the world, with lithium concentrations exceeding 200 ppm. Estimated reserves exceed 3.4 million tons enough to support 600,000 metric tons/year of production. Key projects like the Hell s Kitchen lithium extraction and geothermal plant were cleared in January 2025, with construction starting mid-2025 and production ramping up into 2026 and beyond.
