Cool upcountry living in Mountain View with all County utilities and Mauna Kea views! This classic plantation-era 4 bedroom 2 bath home is located on a large landscaped 34,369 sft lot within walking distance to Mountain View School. Situated at the end of a quite private drive abutting large acreage, this kama'aina home has original hardwood floors, double hung widows and cabinetry throughout with LOTS of living space. Upstairs has a bright open living room, 4 nicely sized bedrooms, a large full bathroom, and a sweet farmhouse style kitchen with a back entrance leading to an additional 1/2 bath. The back staircase leads to the lower basement level which the owner utilizes as an additional bedroom and study. There is also a 1/2 bath with shower as well as a laundry room and separate storage area. In front of the home is a detached enclosed 2 car garage, currently in use as another living area, which could be easily cleared and converted back to parking or a workshop. The property is a gardener's delight: the huge backyard is lush with hapu'u ferns and colorful anthuriums which have created meandering shaded walking paths through the yard. There are large swaths of grass and a sweet little pond with water plants. There is a fun improvised outdoor gathering space that looks out over the large acreage next door and Maunka Kea beyond. Located in Lava Zone 3, Mountain View is less than 10 minutes from Kea'au shopping and another 10 minutes to Hilo's malls and International Airport.
