Motivated Seller! TAKE A 3D TOUR: https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=rPkQVz2tWbJ=0&ts=1. One of Hilo’s truly special homes is on the market for the first time. Thoughtful custom design & exquisite craftsmanship shine from the moment you arrive, with beautiful Ohia posts anchoring the carport and threading throughout the house, from the clerestory entry to the welcoming great-room, all the way to the built-in gazebo that extends the back lanai. Just minutes from downtown Hilo, the hospital & Saddle Road, everything is close, and the Lower Kaumana setting offers ideal elevation with town and ocean views from the second story master. Lush greenery and selective territorial and ocean views abound from the main floor and back lanai. The home's eastern orientation welcomes natural light and catches every sunrise, the trade winds, and Hilo’s epic moonrises.
Lovingly built and maintained, quality is evident throughout: stainless steel appliances, jetted tub, gas fireplace, island hardwood floors, slab granite counters, and a gorgeous eucalyptus staircase accentuating this home’s unmistakable natural flow.
Main floor features 2 beds, office/den, bonus room and gourmet kitchen opening into integrated living & dining space. Upper floor master suite includes large walk-in closet, 5-piece master bath, and upper lanai with commanding views.
