Property Description

This home is a gem awaiting a new owner. Located conveniently in the heart of Hilo, rarely available 1930s home on a large corner lot with enough square footage to subdivide should one choose to. The yard is filled with many mature fruit trees including a recently trimmed back lychee tree, ‘ulu, guava, and lemon. Property is abundant with blue ginger, orchids, and succulents as well. The entire lot is enclosed by a fence and even features a large concrete and chain link kennel, perfectly pet friendly! Enjoy a great view from Hilo Bay, as the home itself sits high above the enclosed basement. The front of the home boasts a large, welcoming lanai that leads to double french doors which open directly into the large and breezy living area. The layout is true to the Hawaiian Plantation style with three well-appointed bedrooms upstairs as well as a full bathroom all spanning one end of the home. All rooms boast high ceilings and windows that allow the trades to breeze through. Tucked away at the back of the home is the kitchen and dining area which is also accessed by a rear entrance leading from the covered garage with room for 4 vehicles. The aforementioned back entrance is accessed by an interior staircase that leads to both the covered garage and basement. The basement is sectioned into a laundry room, full bathroom, storage area, and two rooms. This space will be ideal for a man cave, crafting, or even building it out into a rental unit. This location is perfect for anyone that works in or enjoys Hilo town. Walk five minutes mauka, and you can enjoy Liko Lehua Cafe; stroll five minutes towards Hamakua and you can watch a game at Carvalho Park; drive three minutes makai and visit Hilo Public Library. Or just stay home and enjoy the view!
