Custom designed home just north of downtown Hilo in the rarely available subdivision of Honolii by the Sea. As you step into the home you are greeted by an array of tropical plants in the central atrium as well as views of the ocean in the background. Truly open concept design allows gorgeous views visible from anywhere in the great room which has lots of windows as well as three glass sliding doors that provide access to the large lanai which covers the entire ocean side of the home. Custom kitchen with granite countertops, woven bamboo faced cupboards, a sub-zero refrigerator, a walk-in pantry, and spacious bar area.

The generously sized master bedroom has a spacious walk-in closet and a glass sliding door for quick access to the lanai. The en-suite features double sinks, a large glass-walled shower, as well as a separate Jacuzzi tub nestled in by window. On the other side of the great room, there are two more bedrooms, a lovely guest bath, the laundry room, and the garage. Outside the garage, through a separate entrance, you will find the Ohana unit. Perfect for the college student or visiting family members who may want more privacy.

From the lanai step into the upper level of the gazebo which is constructed entirely of coconut. This Balinese hut was brought in from Indonesia and lovingly reconstructed. Delight in this magical space where you can lounge and enjoy the tropical views of the ocean. From the lanai, you can access the yard below and enjoy the hot tub as well as the bottom floor of the gazebo which is currently in use as a yoga studio. In the yard, you will enjoy the many fruit trees some of which include: Mango, Banana, Avocado, Tangerine, Pink Lemon, Calamanci, Buddha's Hand, Kaffir Lime.

The area across the gulch has 45 undeveloped acres and is owned by Bishop Estate which should ensure continued privacy and view. The gazebo and the separate ohana unit are not counted as part of the homes square footage and are not permitted.
