About This Home

As of March 2022

You will love this tiny fairy tale cottage set in the midst of a wonderfully lush, fully landscaped lot in sunny oceanfront Seaview Estates! Built without permits, the owner has completed plans, stamped by an architect, should you desire to permit the buildings.
The house has quality construction with beautiful natural wood and all finishes eco-friendly with no toxic emissions. A beautiful cupola draws air up and out for great ventilation. A brand new solar electric system is installed, complete with 1,980 watts of solar panels, top of the line Outback inverter, charge controller and other equipment, plus 6 huge gel batteries. A reliable, easy to start Honda 2,000 watt backup generator, a small propane stove, and energy efficient refrigerator and some simple furnishings also included. A new pump, pressure tank, filter, on demand hot water heater, UV water filtration system included. The property has an existing cesspool, 2200 gallon water catchment tank and a 7'X7' Rubbermaid storage building. The bathroom features a custom, over-sized bathtub! The house sits on a lush lot with mature trees, soft lawn and lots of fruit trees such as avocado, breadfruit, coconuts and starfruit. Enjoy the sound of the breeze through the Cook Pine trees.
Kalapana Seaview Estates is an ocean front community with a wide variety of cultural and recreational activities nearby. You can swim with Dolphins at nearby Kehena Beach, enjoy programs at Kalani-Honua Eco-Resort and every Saturday shop at the Farmer’s Market. Soak in the warm ponds just 20 minutes away down the scenic “Red Road’ and go a little further to Kapoho for the best snorkeling in East Hawaii. Lower Puna is a pretty exciting place to live and this property is one of the best lots to be found whether you are looking for a permanent residence or second home to enjoy the Big Island!
