Description

Just 20 minutes north of Hilo lies a truly unique and breathtaking property in the heart of Hakalau. This nearly 7.5-acre off-grid sanctuary offers amazing ocean views, year-round stream frontage, abundant gardens, and a beautifully restored historic home — a rare blend of old Hawai‘i charm and modern sustainability.The land is a testament to thoughtful stewardship, with an impressive array of fruit trees, vegetables, and herbs including citrus, ‘ulu, liliko‘i, avocado, banana, rosemary, kale, lettuce, and much more (list attached to addendum). Toward the rear of the property, you’ll find five large tilapia ponds, teeming with fish and contributing to the property’s self-sufficiency.Adding to the peaceful ambiance, the Ka‘ahakini Stream flows year-round along the northern boundary, bringing with it the soothing sounds of nature. Also, a seasonal stream can be found when the rains are high, dancing through the lava tube in the middle of the property.At the heart of the property is a historic plantation-style home, originally built in 1916 and relocated from Haili Street in Hilo in 2009. Lovingly restored and maintained, the home features 11-foot ceilings that fill the space with light and breeze, enhancing its airy, open feel. Original architectural details, including vintage doors, have been preserved to honor the home’s rich past.Below the main living area is a spacious covered area which includes storage, a workshop, laundry, parking, and even an outdoor shower — ideal after a day of tending the garden or exploring your private paradise.Additionally, there is a chicken coop, a pig pen and various paddocks for livestock.Whether you're looking for a serene retreat, a sustainable lifestyle, or a piece of Hawaiian history, this exceptional property delivers it all.
