About this House

What's unique:Efficient well-designed spaceBuilt-in storage
Location, Location, Location! This is truly a Hilo gem! A loved Plantation Home with Ocean and Mountain views. Tucked up above the heart of downtown Hilo which is rich in culture, restaurants, shopping, theaters, schools, local goods stores and more. Live in town without the hustle and bustle of town living, nestled on a quiet dead end road. Beautiful shady yard with producing fruit trees --- lemon, orange, soursop, banana, and a giant lychee. Also tons of ornamentals and native Hawaiian plants.

Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms and a full bath. High ceilings, giant vintage windows that draw in the light. Downstairs there are a bedroom and 3/4 bathroom, perfect for an office space or guest area. This home was built in 1953 and has been updated through the years. Just a little more TLC and this home will shine in all its vintage glory.
