If you're looking for a comfortable spacious truly OCEANFRONT home, retreat, and a base of operations, this is it. This is the house that Jack built, in 1998. First camping out in the would-be garage, then creating an artistic retreat/bachelor pad, and ultimately a great family home. We happily lived there, until the workaday world moved us to Hilo. We still come back whenever we can.

The ocean is mesmerizing by day, lulling to deep sleep at night. The oceanside deck with spa and swimming pool will become your outdoor living room. The neighborhood is nice and friendly and you can walk or ride bikes for miles along the coast in either direction. Or you can hang out. You just might not want to leave.

Our guests often comment that our home exceeded their expectations. It's probably because of all the local materials and the attention to detail. There's fancy real hard-wood floors throughout (even the bathrooms and kitchen), stained glass windows, granite counter tops, and lots of original artwork. There's also an outdoor shower, two beach cruiser bicycles, purified (by reverse osmosis) drinking water, your own water well with whole house ultra violet filtration system (no worries about running out of water or other problems association with "catchment systems" that are common in our area), solar-heated hot water, various board games, some good Hawaiiana books, various floaty pool toys, and plenty of etc.

Winter months are excellent for hearing humpback whales at night, and of course seeing them by day. Our home is fully functional, clean, comfortable, AND in a great location. In short, it is "homey". Upstairs there are two bedrooms (one King/one Queen) and one bath (accessed by either bedroom). Downstairs is one bedroom (Queen bed) one bathroom, the kitchen, and living room.

You will be only 25 minutes from Hilo airport, downtown or Bayfront and 20 minutes from Pahoa. Ideal for folks who have previously lived here, are moving here, want to move here, have relatives to visit here...you get the idea.
