About This Home

As of February 2021

Here is a well priced two unit older home ready for a move-in or an investment.

Upstairs is 2 bedrooms 1 bath with a nice living room space and kitchen. The single wall home includes the wainscoting that is common on homes of this vintage in Hilo. A chair rail runs the circumference. Nicely painted with artistic patterns and a lovely blue and white theme. Painting is in very good condition.

The downstairs has 2 bedrooms and one bath also with a kitchen and living room. The laundry is also located on the ground floor outside of the downstairs unit so both upstairs and down have access.

Property includes a one car garage that is now a hang out spot! Could be converted back to car storage.
