Quintessential Plantation Home with Ocean & Mountain views- the best value in town! Spring Street is a quiet, dead-end street sheltered by a natural hill covered in tropical foliage. The location is fantastic in the heart of Hilo; just a short walk or ride to Downtown shopping, restaurants, schools (a short stroll to Elem, Intermediate and High School!), the post office, museums, AND Hilo Bayfront recreation. The home's classic design is paired with modern updates including new seamless gutters, electrical wiring, plumbing and energy-efficient LED lighting fixtures throughout the house. These improvements combined with the energy-efficient, tankless water heater, make electric bills minimal. The home is perfectly oriented to capture cooling breezes off the ocean; Every room stays comfortable with natural cross ventilation.
The upstairs living area has 2 bedrooms with a full bathroom, 9ft + ceilings and tasteful board & batten walls. Gentle trade winds whisper through the vintage 12 lite windows of the great room. The kitchen is cute as can be with a full compliment of appliances including a stainless refrigerator, dishwasher and a gas range!
Downstairs, there is a 3rd bedroom- perfect for an office, yoga, playroom, or guest space. There is also a 3/4 bathroom, laundry room and a lockable, large tool closet in the additional storage area. The backyard is a secret gem: Bounded on two sides by gorgeous rock walls with a rolling lawn, mature, fruiting lemon tree, lychee tree & mandarin orange. The landscaping also includes ginger, breadfruit tree (ulu), kukui tree, and other perennial shrubs. This is the one you have been waiting for.
