Located just north of Historic Downtown Hilo, **Pauka’a** is one of East Hawaii’s most coveted residential areas. This **rarely available lot of this size** offers a unique opportunity to build a rural retreat within minutes of schools, shopping, and Hilo’s cultural center.
Property Highlights
* **Prime Location:** 9 minute drive to downtown Hilo. A short bike ride to Honoli‘i Beach Park with panoramic views of **Hilo Bay** and the southern coastline. Privacy, convenience and forever views of the horizon. No Highway traffic sounds, just Pueo and I'o calls.
* **Safety & Security:** Situated on the slopes of Mauna Kea, safely outside high-risk lava zones. Gentle hillside slope to build your underground Armageddon bunker or awesome pool slide.
* **Agricultural Potential:** Ideal for farming. Deep soil. Currently used for kalo farm. with avocado, mango banana trees. Fenced and ready for livestock.
* **Utilities:
** County domestic water meter installed but locked. Need to install water line from the meter to the property which is about 1,200-1500 ft away. See Photos Map. Red X marks the approximate location of water meter. Red line represents water line path on end of Kulana Rd. to Kono Rd to Puia Rd to subject property. Water catchment is a viable option since Paukaa experiences high rainfall averaging approximately 171 inches per year. Heaviest rainfall occurring between November and March.
**Electric: No electric currently available on property., however a solar power system with batteries is definitely a doable and sustainable solution. We have an adequate share of sunshine to power a solar power system.
