About this House

Rarely offered, Hilo style ranch home on quiet cul de sac, fronting state land, down the street from the new fire station. Great location off Haihai, in Waiakea school district. Win!

The home offers an open beam kitchen, dining and living area, with lots of bright light filtering in through the numerous windows. The real cherry wood floor in the dining room adds warmth, while the bamboo floor in the living room offers a nice contrast. The kitchen offers newer tile floors, a brand new range and hood as well as a newer large capacity fridge, nice countertops, new cabinetry. The kitchen has an incredible amount of storage, and a Puakenikeni tree right outside the window!!

The three bedrooms are down the hall from each other with the main bathroom in between. The bath provides a ceramic tub with tiled shower, a bidet toilet, sink and loads of storage.
The lower level primary area by the garden, houses a large bonus room, a bedroom and split bathroom.

Please be willing to provide references, pass a background check, have good employment history and enjoy gardening and love the property.

This home is very special to us and the garden will speak to you. We do provide lawn service, but that is all, the plants are well established and not a lot of weeds grow. Mainly yard care would be pruning, feeding and general care.

Things to note: location, location, and you know the rest. There are several large storage closets throughout the home, ceiling fans (in most rooms). Rented as is and absolutely no subletting. Come and check it out!

Owner pays for lawn service. Tenant is responsible for electricity, propane gas, water, etc.
Unit needs to be tented for termites, sometime next spring (2023). Tenant may need to relocate for a night.
