Imagine driving down a circular driveway lined with Samoan and Areca palm trees, through beautifully landscaped grounds to your private and secluded Hawaiian vacation retreat. Breathe in the tropical fragrances of Red and White Ginger, Plumeria, Guava, and Night Blooming Jasmine as you begin to unwind from the stresses you left behind.
Kick off your shoes and relax in our tropical, three-bedroom, three-bath hideaway, recently upgraded with new appliances, furniture, bathroom fixtures and hardwood flooring throughout. The master bedroom has a private bath and king-sized bed. The other two bedrooms have a queen and two twins. Ceiling fans in each room. Sleeps six comfortably.
Located 20 minutes from Hilo, 35 minutes from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, and two hours from the world-class beaches of the Kohala Coast. The Big Island is most famous for being home to Kilauea Volcano, the longest-continually-erupting volcano in the world. Visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (35 minutes away) where you can hike to an oozing lava flow, or visit at night to view the surreal red glow from the molten lava. If you are in luck, watch seawater explode into steam and boiling water where lava enters the ocean. In addition, we are conveniently located to all of the following attractions and activities.
What really distinguishes this property is that when the property was developed, the builder just cleared a path for the circular driveway and house pad, following the natural swells and undulations of the lavascape. Consequently the house is very secluded and hidden among the red and yellow Ohi'a trees, guava, ferns and wild orchids. Most lots here are cleared and leveled by the builder, so this is a very special place. There is a lot of privacy and the landscaping is amazing.
Here are some of the plants and trees you will find on our one-acre property:
Yellow and Red Ohi'a
Norfolk Pine
Lychee
Kaffir Lime
