About This Home

As of December 2023

Located just one lot from the ocean, this cute beach cottage has great potential for beach side living, vacation rental income, personal get-away or full-time residence. Rarely available, Nene Street is an unbelievably quiet location that provides quick access to some of East Hawaii's most popular beach parks. It's also close to Hilo and several wonderful restaurants. The large lot ensures privacy. The large over-sized lanai is a great place to enjoy the breezes. The upper level is an unexpected treat with a nice sized kitchen, full bath and living room with open beam ceilings. Located on the lower level is a small efficiency unit/guest unit with full bath and wet bar. Reasonably priced and ready for a new owner to bring fresh eyes to make it shine.
