Rev This classic Hawaiian plantation home overlooks Laupahoehoe Point and provides outstanding ocean views above the Hamakua coastline. County records show this home previously hosted 4 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. Currently, the vintage upper level has 1 bedroom, a full bath, and a spacious living/kitchen/dining area that opens onto a large, wraparound lanai for indoor-outdoor living. The most recent permitted renovation raised the building two feet to full ceiling height on the lower level; that process included removing and replacing the upper lanai, the interior and exterior stairways, and the lower-level walls which are now smart-sided 2x6 hurricane braced shear walls. Structural work on the lower level has been completed, leaving the interior to be finished to fit your lifestyle needs. All permits opened thus far have been completed. Opportunity awaits a new owner/builder/contractor looking to step-in where the current owners left off. The yard is extensively landscaped and contains a large variety of mature fruit trees; naval orange, tangerine, ulu, guava, Brazilian cherry, grapefruit, papaya, avocado, and lemon. Pineapple, banana, lilikoi, and dragon fruit plants. The landscaping also includes many ornamentals, both native and exotic; plumeria, hau, ixora, ti plants, bromeliad, anthurium, orchids, and more. Laupahoehoe is a small, vibrant community midway between Hilo and Waimea along Hwy. 19, with a pre-K through grade 12 Public Charter School, community pool, and public library. Papa’aloa Country Store and Cafe for groceries/take-out/restaurant with bar and live music, Minute Stop/Convenience Store and the Laupahoehoe Train Museum are all within walking distance. Laupahoehoe Point Beach State Park is only minutes away.
