There's a reason people who know Hilo know Kaiwiki. It's the road you take when you want acreage and an address. Close to town, close to the hospital, close to the airport, but tucked far enough into the green that the air feels different up here. Cooler. Quieter. The kind of quiet you can relax into. Five-plus acres, in Lava Zone 8, fully fenced, with a private setting that borders a large forested parcel and the seasonal Maumau Stream. Ocean views of Hilo Bay and the coastline. A mature fruit orchard and with room for a green thumb to take it further. Banana, orange, tangerine, lemon, lychee, to name a few. The main house is meticulously maintained; 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a renovated kitchen with newer appliances, and spacious living and dining rooms wrapped in windows that pull natural light through the whole home. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams create an airy sense of space throughout, while a decorative lava rock fireplace anchors the living area with warmth and character. Beautiful original hardwood floors run underfoot, a rare detail you can't reproduce. Open where it should be open, private where it should be private. You can feel the care the moment you walk in. Adjoining the main house is a permitted one-bedroom, one-bath ohana with a full kitchen and a spacious living area, ideal for extended family, visiting guests, or rental income. A solar hot water system keeps the electric bill in check. Outside is a covered lanai built for outdoor entertaining. The entryway has a huge covered carport, offering protection from both sunny & rainy days. A permitted detached storage shed rounds it out, ready for tools, projects, and the handy person in the family. Kaiwiki is the best of country living with town convenience. Minutes to town, shopping, dining, and everything else you'd want. Three bedrooms. A permitted ohana. Over five acres. Gated and fenced. Sweeping ocean views. And a Kaiwiki address. That combination doesn't come up often.
