Tucked into a small private community in the heart of the Panaewa rain forest, yet a quick five-minute drive from Hilo (or Keaau), you‘ll find this delightful home greeting you with orchids, flowers, fruit trees, and waving palms – everything you might desire in a Hawaiian home. It begins with the lava bubble at the entry, a rare treat and tall enough to stand in. The trade winds cool the house and set the trees dancing above you. Floor to ceiling views of the gardens invite you to enjoy a glass of wine or a cup of tea on the lanai. Enjoy the special feeling of picking a lemon off the tree just as you need it for the mahi-mahi on the grill, or a lime for your evening cocktail. How about picking avocados in the yard for a fresh batch of guacamole?
Inside the house, the large and unique floor plan of the kitchen provides more than ample storage and workspace for the family chef. The master bedroom offers a walk-through closet and plenty of space for your island wardrobe. The finished walk-out basement offers expanded room possibilities for your family and guests with its wet bar and full bathroom, while the covered patio is the perfect space for grilling.
The separate cottage, which has it's own cesspool, is spacious and would be the perfect office, studio, or additional guest quarters.
The combination of location, practicality, and charm creates a unique comfort. The property has county water is fenced and is a botanical delight!
