Description
Discover this charming 1,400+ square foot custom cedar home tucked away on a private driveway off Ao Rd (Road 2) in Hawaiian Acres. Surrounded by tropical greenery, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers the perfect blend of privacy, sustainability, and island living.

The home features a photo-voltaic system that provides most of the home's energy needs, supporting an environmentally friendly lifestyle with modern comforts. Enjoy indoor-outdoor living with two spacious lanais — one on the ground level and another private lanai off the primary bedroom upstairs.

The ground-level lanai welcomes you into the cozy living room and kitchen, where laminate floors are in excellent condition. A full bath is conveniently located on this level, along with a flexible room that can be used as a bedroom or a larger living area.

Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms and a half bath. The upstairs bedrooms showcase gorgeous tongue-and-groove cedar ceilings that bring warmth and character to the space. The primary bedroom is a true retreat with cedar walls and access to its own private lanai — the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee surrounded by nature.

This peaceful property offers the ideal opportunity to live sustainably in a quiet, rural setting while still being within reasonable driving distance to Hilo town and its amenities. Come see this unique cedar home and all it has to offer!
