Description

This “Cozy Cabin" has the convenience of modern amenities while maintaining sustainable off-grid living. Located on a relatively square 3 acre parcel offering total privacy from the road and neighbors. Built in 2014, this 1 bedroom 1 bath home features ceramic floors, a beautiful marble shower as well as an outdoor shower, LED recessed lighting, mahogany trim, insulated walls, and many windows to enjoy the surrounding ohia forest. There is 400 sq foot of attic space as well as the additional storage area under the home. A new 10,000 gallon catchment tank stands adjacent to the home, providing water throughout the year. The home’s power is supplied from the solar system. Electricity is available through the county if the SSPP fees are paid but connection to the grid is totally optional. The entrance of the home has a 10 x 20 lanai, perfect for entertaining and the front yard is landscaped and has been selectively cleared to provide light and airflow to the home. Koa tree saplings line the driveway and a beautiful 30 foot long flower bed welcomes visitors to the cottage. There is also a large lava rock fire pit which is perfect for weekend bbqs.
Approximately ½ acre has been cleared, leaving the majority of the property native. The driveway is about 150 feet long and has recently been topped with cinder. The front of the property is fenced pin-to-pin and has a 14 foot gate that swings in & out. Omeka road is a gravel road which is very well maintained and easily accessible for any kind of vehicle. Volcano National Park is a quick ride up the mountain and Hilo town is about a thirty minute ride down. Come visit and see if this private country cottage is what you have been looking for. Construction specifications available upon request. All improvements done without permits and property will be sold "As-Is"

    "To the town of Pahoa it’s only about nine minutes. For a commute to Hilo it’s closer to 35. Most of the things that we need are within a 10 minute drive. But this allows for quiet neighborhoods and fairly dark skies at night for stargazing. Traffic is usually light except when there is construction. Even when is there is it’s usually only a momentary delay. "

    "The neighborhood in general is very excepting of dogs and most people have them. Most people observe leash laws and keep their dogs in check. Dog’s seem to represent a measure of security for the house owner. There are no dog parks per se in this area but plenty of quiet streets to walk your dog on. "

    "The title says it all; when you are in Hawaii, life is just better! The area is beautiful, the people are friendly, and the weather is to die for, if you are lucky enough to visit then you are lucky enough! With an area of 4,028 square miles, the Hawaii Island is not just big; it is still growing; because Kilauea is the world's most active and prolific volcano. Hawaiian Beaches located just 3 short miles from Pahoa Town, and 20 miles south of Hilo Town (Hilo International Airport). Pahoa is one of the sunniest spots on the east side of the Big Island. The beautiful Ahalanui Hot Ponds are approximately 20 minutes away, and Volcanoes National Park is approximately 60 minutes away. "
