Looking for a modern home with plenty of room, a BIG kitchen, low utility costs, a lush yard and more independence from the grid? This 2022 home on a full acre checks the boxes. This open layout gives everyone room to spread out while still feeling connected - whether you’re cooking, entertaining, working from home, relaxing or making space for hobbies. The kitchen is made for people who love to cook, with a huge island, loads of cabinets, a walk-in pantry and room for gathering & conversation. The home offers two suites: a generous primary with dual sinks and roomy closets, plus a second suite with a walk-in shower. Tray ceilings, recessed lighting, solid pocket doors, quartz counters, abundant storage and whisper quiet ceiling fans make living easy. Split-zone A/C keeps the living room and primary bedroom comfortable—and speaking of comfort bidets on every toilet! A 26-panel Enphase PV system w/battery and EV charger keeps fuel and electric bills low with stored power during outages. Add a 10,000-gallon catchment system with UV + mechanical filtration, septic and a heat-pump water heater, and there’s very little reliance on public utilities. Outside, a healthy green lawn surrounds a lush tropical scape with pineapple, banana, coconut, lemon, lime, orange, calamansi, papaya, loquat and lilikoi. A fenced section is great for small dogs. The wide concrete driveway and turnaround offer loads of parking, with side access to the backyard. A 40' x 22' concrete slab adds 880 sq ft of possibility—pool, greenhouse, outdoor living or potential future ADU, subject to approvals. Set on a paved HPP road, the home feels wonderfully quiet and private, conveniently located between Hilo and Pāhoa with easy access to Keaʻau. Farm stands, fresh local food, restaurants, markets and small businesses are part of the East Hawaiʻi lifestyle. Nestled toward the top of HPP there's a sweet shortcut home with direct access from Hwy 130 onto 29th Ave.
