Mark Twain Estates - beautifully landscaped nearly 1/2 acre in private Mark Twain with sunrise views, lots of pathways, flowers, producing fruit trees & many sitting areas. A plant list is attached. The original multi-faceted studio structure was constructed by a master builder & it consists of a kitchen, living room, bedroom & bath. The studio area can be used as a second sleeping room. There are two custom-built nooks, each one designed to fit a full size bed (one included). Two doorways are Torii, which are traditional Japanese gates. Several of the light fixtures are vintage Punalu'u Restaurant treasures. The lanais face the four cardinal directions & the moon/star-gazing from the south lanai is fantastic!
The second structure is a 24 ft yurt, which was built just a few years ago. It was constructed by master builders & master craftsmen. The yurt has a living roof consisting of pikake & other plants. The seller's mother lived there for awhile, so it has a 20 ft. wheelchair accessible with a ramp, handrails, ohia transfer bars & 30" high sinks & counters. Bath has a cedar wall for privacy. Modular closets for plenty of storage space. Kitchen counters/breakfast bar are all custom ohia. Both homes come partially furnished & will be sold as is. With two homes, multi-generational living is possible in this very special & unique retreat.
A water meter was paid & is owned by the seller - buyer will need to run the line from the meter box on Wakea Ave. to the property. Chicken coop is under construction at this time & could be converted into another type of structure. Circular driveway for easy ingress/egress. Lava Zone 6, Flood Zone X.
Mark Twain is part of the old plantation town of Naalehu where you'll find several good restaurants, a gas station with groceries, a post office & coffee shops that serve award-winning Ka'u coffee. This area is approximately halfway between Kailua-Kona & Hilo & both cities have most major services & international airports.
