** Back on Market **
Conveniently located home in Keaau Town in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to Christian Liberty Academy and Keaau Middle School, as well as the restaurants, medical offices, amenities, and stores around Keaau Shopping Center; only a 10-minute drive to the only indoor shopping center on the Big Island in Hilo. Enjoy county water, overhead power, and mail delivery.

The home has many built-in features and room for large gatherings. Homeowners converted the original fifth bedroom into a sunny dining area with built-in bench seating and storage space. Enjoy gorgeous views of Mauna Kea from the wraparound windows in the living room overlooking the coconut palms and all spice tree in the front yard while relaxing on the built-in bench seating with storage. The 684 sq ft enclosed lanai merges indoor and outdoor living with a well-maintained backyard and stately mature fruit trees (avocado, lychee, mango) that keep things cool during warmer Hawaiian summers. Current owners use the lanai as a rec room and workshop, but previous owners have used it as an outdoor living room.

A spacious master bedroom with built-in bedside tables and dresser with drawers keep things tidy and comes with a window air-conditioner to cool things down on days without the usual constant trade wind breezes. The second upstairs guest room doubles as a study with ample closet space. The downstairs permitted ohana suite with two bedrooms, one full bath, and a kitchenette was used for long-term rental.

The property is fenced on three sides, and a gate for the fence on one side purchased by the owners with permission from the neighbor allows vehicular access to the yard for tree trimming. Two permitted carports, one with cement flooring, provides covered parking. Carport with gravel flooring was permitted in 1972, but protrudes into setback according to current zoning rules. Transferrable termite warranty and treatment plan until the end of 2023.
