Property Description
Welcome home to this beautifully upgraded, move-in ready retreat in lower Kaumana — just minutes from downtown Hilo and nestled within the highly coveted DeSilva School District! Sitting pretty at approximately 600' elevation on a corner lot, this property catches cool easterly tradewinds, boasts ocean and Hilo Bay views, and delivers stunning sunrise skies right from your covered lanai — your new favorite morning coffee spot.
This home has been thoughtfully updated and lovingly maintained. Highlights include:
~ Brand new roof
~ Solar water heating
~ Freshly excavated and graded yard with fruit trees & tropical flowers
~ Permitted 768 sqft workshop/exercise room with electric — ideal for hobbies, workouts, or creative space!
Inside, you'll find:
~ Upgraded flooring & kitchen cabinetry
~ Spacious layout with 3 generously sized bedrooms
~ 3 bathrooms (1 full with jetted tub, 1 with shower, and a convenient en-suite half bath in the primary bedroom)
~ Cozy built-in living room heater for those crisp Kaumana evenings
~ Interior laundry and ample storage throughout — including a large under-home storage area
And here's the best part: this in-town location is super convenient — just minutes to Hilo Medical Center, downtown shops, the post office, theaters, library, and more. The home was professionally fumigated in January 2024 and comes with a warranty, offering peace of mind for years to come.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a versatile and vibrant property in one of Hilo's most desirable neighborhoods. Whether you're looking to plant roots, grow your garden, or finally have space for that studio or gym — this one checks all the boxes.
