Property Description
The upper level of the home features 3 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom, retaining the iconic redwood bones of a traditional plantation build. Hidden beneath years of history are original hardwood floors just waiting to be sanded and refinished into a stunning focal point. Downstairs, the highly functional lower level expands your options exponentially. Complete with a flexible living space, a convenient kitchenette, and a half bath, this lower layout is ideal for hosting extended family, creating a dedicated remote work suite. Or perhaps an interior Gym or excess storage area?
While the home does need some cosmetic renovations and restoration to truly shine, it represents a blank canvas in an unbeatable location. Imagine sipping morning coffee in your Kitchen while looking out over manicured fairway greens, or spending your afternoons practicing your swing just steps from your back door. Property opportunities like this along the Hilo Municipal Golf Course are not common- here is your chance to secure your dream home! Just a few minutes away from Hilo Plaza, Target/Walmart and Puainako Shopping Center. Also- take the upper road to reach Hilo Benioff Medical Center or Kaiser in 10-15 minutes! Bring your contractor, your vision, and your love for vintage Hawaiian Homes to check out this Hilo gem today.
