Property Description
The living space is small, cozy, and easy to maintain. Upstairs features a single room with an enclosed lanai that can serve as an additional room. The bathroom is spacious, and the upstairs also includes a kitchen with a stove and refrigerator.
With its own separate entrance, the downstairs offers a bedroom with a closet, plus a living room/dining area. The kitchen has a small refrigerator and the potential for expansion.
What really sets this property apart is its distinctive location. The neighborhood is wonderful, and you're within walking distance of Old Downtown Hilo, where you'll find coffee shops, restaurants, local stores, and the vibrant energy of Hawaiʻi.
This home is nestled within a quiet three-lot subdivision, and the other two lots are also for sale.
Enjoy a peaceful riverfront setting with low-bank access to the stream—perfect for relaxing. The lot is sunny, breezy, and has parking for 2–4 vehicles.
Flexible possibilities: ideal as a primary home, investment property, or future development (multi-family zoning).
