More photos coming soon! Three acres, an existing permitted home, and an opportunity for someone ready to take on a project. Located on desirable Moho Road, this property features an existing 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in need of extensive renovation. The home is currently essentially a shell, with single-wall construction, exposed subfloor and missing/incomplete electrical components. This is not a cosmetic fixer — bring your contractor, your plans, and your vision. The property is serviced by catchment water, a cesspool, and an existing newer electrical meter is in place. The approximately three-acre parcel is currently mostly overgrown, offering the next owner an opportunity to reclaim and shape the property to suit their plans. For the buyer who isn't afraid of a project, the value here is in the land, location, existing permitted structure and improvements already in place. Property to be sold in its current condition. Buyers and their agents are encouraged to perform their own due diligence regarding the condition of the structure, utilities, improvements and intended use.
Puna, located between Hilo and Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, is a rural and volcanic Big Island neighborhood with rainforest roads and lava-shaped landscapes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Keaʻau–Pāhoa Road corridor near Pāhoa Village Road, where roadside produce stands, artful storefronts, and small eateries set an unhurried, local rhythm. Pāhoa Fresh Fish and the Pāhoa Village Museum act as cultural anchors, with the Lava Tree State Monument adding a signature outdoor landmark. Architecture leans toward plantation-era cottages and contemporary homes adapted to wet, tropical conditions. Daily life follows farmers markets, beach days, and forest trails, with wide skies and frequent rain showers shaping the pace. The geography reads as green canopy, black lava, and ocean air, with long drives as part of the routine.
