82-6047 PUUHONUA RD, CAPTAIN COOK, HI 96704

Step into a rare piece of Hawaiian history. Nestled directly along the iconic shores of Kealakekua Bay, this unique oceanfront property offers unobstructed views of the Captain Cook Monument and the pristine waters of one of the most culturally and ecologically significant bays in the Hawaiian Islands.Located in the heart of South Kona, this home captures the essence of old Hawaiʻi, with sunset views, gentle ocean breezes, and a near-perfect launching point for kayaking, snorkeling, or simply watching the dolphins pass by. The lot is generously sized at over 16,000 square feet and provides direct water access—a true rarity on the Big Island.Originally built in 1935, the home has undergone multiple additions and remodels over the years. While tax records reflect a 3-bedroom, 1-bath layout, the actual configuration includes 7 usable bedrooms and additional living spaces not reflected in public records. Cesspool has been upgraded to a septic system.Whether you envision restoring this property to its original charm, reimagining it with a full renovation, or building new on this exceptional lot, the possibilities are as expansive as the ocean views.Buyer to independently verify all permits, zoning, and future use potential. Property is offered AS IS. No STVR permit is available, and the home is not located in a zone that allows short-term rentals without a nonconforming use certificate. Some additions and improvements—including extra rooms and remodels—were completed without building permits and may not conform to county code. The actual bedroom and bathroom count differ from tax records. Buyer and buyer’s agent are strongly advised to conduct thorough due diligence with the County of Hawaiʻi, Department of Health, Planning Department, and other appropriate agencies to confirm compliance, usage limitations, and any requirements for future permitting or renovations.
