"Ke Alohilani", the Shining Heavenly Place, is a fitting name for this charming custom built home on 4 fenced acres of mature native forest. Thoughtful clearing of the lot maximized privacy and protected the forest. The home lives large with soaring cathedral ceilings, large windows and skylights bringing in light and forest views. It's like living in a treehouse! Recent upgrades include a new on-demand hot water heater, 14 PV Solar Panels (leased) for inexpensive electricity, a new gas cooktop and fresh paint in and out. Other special features include a large soaking tub in the bathroom, heated ceramic floors in the bathroom and kitchen, spacious covered decks for in-door/out-door living and a lower area under the home for future development. Featuring all square 3 acres lots, Hawaiian Orchid Island Estate is a much sought-after Volcano location. The square shape affords more privacy from neighbors than the thinner "spaghetti" shaped lots so common in nearby subdivisions. Located on the corner of Alii Kane and Ho'olehua Rd. , this lot is larger, at 4 acres, with paved access from the highway on Alii Kane St. The lease for PV Solar Panels will be transferred to Buyer at closing. Voluntary dues for Road Maintenance are currently $60/year, subject to change. Also an Assoc. Transfer Fee of $60 will be assessed Buyer at closing.

Section 1, located between Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park and the Puna District, is a rural and forested Fern Forest neighborhood with lava-rock lots and a canopy of ʻōhiʻa and hapuʻu ferns. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Highway 11 corridor near the Fern Forest Road junction, where small roadside stands, mailboxes, and service pull-offs set a practical, off-the-grid rhythm. Homes tend toward modest cabins and single-story builds tucked into dense greenery, with long driveways and minimal street lighting. Rainy afternoons and birdsong shape daily routines, and the air often carries a cool, upland feel. Weekend errands and casual meetups orbit local stops such as Kilauea Lodge, Volcano Garden Arts, and the Volcano Art Center.
