Hmmm, I install Python packages into Sage with the "--user" flag all the time, so my initial guess is this is specific to this particular package or Sage build. As of 7.1 or 7.2, Sage's Python has the user base directory set to "~/.sage/local" rather than the usual (for Unix) of "~/.local". In particular, the user site packages should be "~/.sage/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages". This was done to avoid conflicts with other versions of Python the user might have installed (which, for example, might not be binary compatible with Sage's).
