Welcome to 234 Kipa Street, a thoughtfully updated home in a quiet Hilo neighborhood conveniently located near Hilo Municipal Golf Course, UH Hilo, Hilo Medical Center, shopping, dining, and more.
Set on a beautifully landscaped corner lot, the property offers mature tropical landscaping, expansive grassy yard space, and inviting outdoor living areas including a spacious covered lanai. A partially fenced yard provides additional flexibility for pets, gardening, or outdoor enjoyment.
The home features a fully owned and net-metered 17-panel photovoltaic solar system with 5.59 kW capacity through HELCO, helping maintain exceptionally low electric costs of approximately $30/month. Split-zone air conditioning on both ends of the home adds year-round comfort and efficiency. A new septic system was installed in 2018.
Recent improvements include LifeProof flooring throughout, energy-efficient windows and sliding glass doors, a remodeled kitchen, designer front entry, dedicated laundry/pantry area, updated ceiling fans, and brushed nickel hardware throughout. The home is also equipped with installed hurricane clips and is being offered unfurnished.
