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 (taro, coffee, cacao, tropical fruits) or raising 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 get an adequate share of sunshine to power a solar power system.
