An amazing property awaits you in Waiakea, Hilo Hawaii. This 3 bedroom home sits on over 16,000 sf of land and you will immediately notice how private it is. Sitting up high, there is front yard that oversees the city below with the ocean views beyond. As you enter the home, you will take notice of the redwood walls with the original hardwood floors. The shoji sliding doors add a bit of charm to the space and creates a nice separation between the living room and dining. The kitchen has been updated over the years with granite tile counter tops with lots of cabinet space.<br>Down the hallway are 3 ample sized bedrooms all with hardwood floors. The bathroom has been updated with a stylish sink and river rock tile tub enclosure and floors. <br>As one ventures off the kitchen is the laundry room with a walk in shower and soaking tub, along with toilet. Again the choice of river rock tile adds a special vibe to the walk in shower.<br>Then the magic begins as one steps out to the back where you will find first a family room with 480 square feet of space. You immediately get a sense of calm here and it can be used in a multitude of ways. Home office, art studio, yoga room, exercise room. It has also been used as a hosted vacation rental with guests using the shower and toilet in the laundry room. The owners did secure the kitchen entry door with a lock that keeps the main house secure but providing access to guests to the laundry/bath area.<br>But it is the backyard that will truly be that special place. Right in Hilo is your zen-like garden and space that features a majestic monkey pod tree that is the anchor to the back yard. With bamboo groves and tropical plants throughout, this is a spot where you can appreciate the wonders of nature. A home and property that is truly one of a kind and special.<br><br>** Please view the property video to appreciate how special it is **
