Peaceful and secluded country living, just minutes to downtown Hilo! You get a classic kama`aina style home with all utilities, and yet the seclusion of a well landscaped 3.5 acre property of arboretum quality, nestled in the verdant Waiakea Uka area of Hilo. Originally a 2 bed, 1 bath, the upper main floor of the home has been converted to a spacious 1 bedroom, which could easily be returned to the previous layout. The entire upper level was very recently covered with Bamboo flooring, and new ceramic tile was installed in the kitchen and bath!The ground level, which includes a living room, bedroom, bath and workshop/storage area, effectively doubling the sq. ft. of living area, has been completed without permits. A permitted 448 sf utility shed is being used as a 1 bedroom ohana cottage, however the bath in it was not permitted. The 355 sq. ft. of lanai area of the main house provides a great venue to take in the lushly landscaped property, which includes a wide variety of palms, fruit and flowering trees and shrubs. Among the diverse selection of fruiting trees: various Citrus, Banana, Rambutan, Avocado, Star Fruit, and even the exotic Durian. For those wanting to dabble into aquaculture, two ponds - one lined, and the other natural, await your creative talents. A perfect get away home with easy access to everything Hilo has to offer. A "must see to appreciate" distinctive property!To be sold As-Is. Survey map is available, no staking by seller. Lead Base Paint Addendum applies. Up Ainaola, left on Ainalako, property is 2.1 miles on left.
