Wake up to relaxing ocean views from the primary bedroom, enjoy them over morning coffee on the front lanai, and take them in while cooking from the kitchen of this truly unique Honomu home! Situated on a spacious 20, 000 sq. ft. lot just below Akaka Falls, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence offers two separate living areas, giving you flexibility for entertaining, relaxing, working from home, or creating a dedicated media or family room. Over 1, 900 sqft of living space gives one the creative potential needed. What sets this property apart is its unmistakable character. Thoughtfully designed by a scholar of Japanese studies, the home incorporates beautiful Asian influenced elements throughout, including a traditional tokonoma alcove at the entrance, shoji doors, tatami mats in one bedroom, and a soaking tub overlooking a peaceful Japanese-style garden. These details give the home a warmth and personality rarely found in today’s homes. The primary suite has dual sinks, half bath, and walk-in closet for convenient storage. Here the kitchen features generous cabinet space, two sinks, and ocean views, while mature tropical landscaping surrounds the property. Productive tangerine, calamansi, mountain apple, and Meyer lemon trees add to the sense of island living.

Located in the charming community of Honomu, with Akaka Falls, the Hamakua Coast, and Hilo all within easy reach, this is a home that offers much more than a peaceful retreat it offers character, views, land, and a lifestyle that feels distinctly set apart.
