About this House

What a great location for this light-filled Hilo home! It's close to historical Hilo town, close to all medical facilities, close to the library and Rainbow Falls, and about ten minutes to Honolii surfing beach, the University, and the airport.

The exterior of the home offers a clean, fresh bungalow design with a hip roof. Inside, the structure feels solid and spacious, with a wide hallway connecting three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The kitchen offers a large pantry, and there's an expansive covered back lanai, overlooking the fenced back lawn. While the home is in move-in ready condition, there's still room for new owners to make it their own.

The outside laundry room comes with washer and dryer and there are two carports.

Sitting at the end of a short and peaceful no-through street in a welcoming community of friendly neighbors, this property is a must-see; not to be missed.
