About This Home
Welcome to your exotic retreat on the Big Island! Nestled in a serene corner of paradise, just minutes from the ocean, this unique property provides a great opportunity for those with a passion for nature looking to rest and reset. Situated on a quiet street in Black Sand Subdivision, this two-story structure with a yurt on the top, has been a labor of love for its current owners, and it shows: completely renovated and tastefully decorated and landscaped. Embrace the off-grid lifestyle with solar energy and propane for cooking (Along with a cool propane powered fridge!). Extra solar panels yet to be mounted are provided with the sale, while a brand new top of the line catchment (with new liner, cover, supports, pipe work, pump, pressure tank, and UV filtration system) collects rainwater. Additionally a new on-demand propane hot water heater is installed and functioning for warm showers. Your new sanctuary boasts a fully fenced yard with a gate. AND if more space is needed, a newly built 10x16 studio has just been finished to enjoy! Imagine sipping freshly harvested coconut water from your own lanai, while you enjoy the beauty and sounds of your own private tropical oasis. Fresh avocados, pineapple and papaya are just a few of the delights that await you in your own backyard. Convenience meets tranquility as you're just a 10-minute drive away from eclectic Pahoa and its new 40 million dollar shopping center, its Maku'u market where the bounty of the island beckons, and a fun downtown with bars and restaurants. At a mere 3.5 miles to the ocean, feel the black volcanic sand beneath your toes at the nearby breathtaking Kehena and Pohoiki beaches. Current owner works from home with high speed fiber internet & phone. With still undeveloped jungle lots on all sides, this property provides natural seclusion and privacy. This move in ready home is the perfect opportunity to turn your Hawaii dreams into a reality. PLEASE do not show up unannounced. Owner Financing OK.
