3 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 732370 MLS ⋅ ['Fee Simple'] Tenure ⋅ Wailuku Park Townhouses BLDG.
Renovated, refreshed, and centrally located, this 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath residence at 188 Hale Street, Unit 7D offers updated living in the heart of Hilo. New flooring runs throughout, and interior has been repainted in a clean, current palette that keeps the space bright and welcoming. Originally configured as a three bedroom, the unit was thoughtfully reworked when a dividing wall was removed, creating a spacious primary bedroom alongside a generously sized secondary. The result is a layout that lives larger than the room count suggests, with proportions that feel open rather than compartmentalized. The kitchen has been reconfigured around a center island, adding prep space, storage, and a natural gathering point while opening the layout toward the living area. The bathrooms have been renovated with updated fixtures and finishes, and the half bath adds convenience for guests. Remote controlled blinds bring an easy touch of modern comfort, adjusting light and privacy at the press of a button. A designated parking stall sits directly in front of the unit, and the grounds throughout the complex are meticulously maintained. HOA dues are reasonable and cover the kind of upkeep that keeps a property looking its best year after year. The setting is a genuine standout. Downtown Hilo is minutes away, home to the farmers market, bayfront parks, local restaurants, coffee shops, galleries, and long standing family businesses. Hilo Benioff Medical Center is close by, a meaningful advantage for physicians, nurses, hospital staff, and anyone who values proximity to care. Hale Street sits in an established, easygoing pocket of town where daily errands stay simple, and schools, shopping, Hilo Bay, and Hilo International Airport are all a short drive away. Updated interiors, a rethought floor plan, dedicated parking, and a central location combine in a package that is difficult to duplicate this close to downtown Hilo.
