Two Homes on 1.16 Acres in Rural Kaiwiki, Near Hilo Here's a rare find, two homes on one gorgeous 1.16-acre parcel in quiet, cool Kaiwiki, just a short drive from Hilo. The main home is a spacious two-story with open beams and four bedrooms, with ocean horizon views from the living room, kitchen, and lanai. There's a local park about a mile down the road, and the grounds themselves are a big part of the appeal including many areas for planting and gardening. This property is currently mid-renovation. Some areas have already been remodeled while others have been prepped and are ready for the next phase with all carpets having been pulled out. There's still work to do to get it back to full living condition, but that also means there's a real opportunity here to finish it out exactly how you want it. The first home is a 1959 plantation-style home with three bedrooms and a lot of character. A new rood was added in February 2017, and the ocean horizon views over Hilo from the living areas and front of the property are hard to beat. The second home was built in 1994 and offers those same ocean horizon views from the living room, dining area, and kitchen. It's solid wood construction with an open-beam living area and vaulted ceilings that give it a really airy feel. The kitchen is generously sized with a breakfast bar that opens right up to the dining area. The primary suite gets tons of natural light from its windows, has a bathroom with a long counter, a walk-in closet, and even an extra nook with yard views. There's also a full garage with laundry, and one of the bedrooms is conveniently located downstairs.
