Incredible diamond in the rough opportunity in highly desired Kulaimano Heights subdivision which is 7.5 miles from Hilo town. Within a cooler location and nestled on a large pie shape lot, this home has over 14,688 sq ft of beautiful lush jungle including it's own lava tube. Ranch style home with a large carport and long driveway. A stone lanai area greets you as you walk up into the home's entry area. This home has on the records that it's photovoltaic solar panels done in 2014. All the bedrooms are larger than many of the newer builds for the same price point. Nice flow in the floorplan with a couple exterior sliders for easy outdoor access. Close to the 4 mile drive across the way toward Onemea Bay with farmstands and farmers markets. This location is highly desired for those who want to be on the Hamakua Coast but a closer drive to downtown Hilo Bay area. Homes rarely come onto the market in this location. Make this one yours!

About Makahanaloa
Ahupua`a
Makahanaloa Ahupua`a, located between Hilo Bay and the Hamakua Coast, is a rural and coastal Pepeekeo neighborhood with sugar-era plantation remnants and steep gulches dropping to the ocean. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Pepeekeo Scenic Drive corridor near the old mill area, where roadside fruit stands, small workshops, and ocean-view pullouts set the daily rhythm. Plantation-style cottages and utilitarian farm structures sit among dense tropical growth, with long views toward Mauna Kea on clear days. The Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden frames the area’s rainforest geography with footpaths and stream crossings. Onuma’s Sugarcane Train and the nearby Hamakua Heritage Corridor keep the region’s agricultural story in view. Life here follows the coastline and rain, with narrow roads, big skies, and a working-landscape feel.
