What's around 1/39 Kula Place

About this property

This beautiful, two-story, custom home is perfectly situated less than 10 minutes from
spectacular surfing, Ha’aheo Elementary School, Hilo medical center, and all the
amenities of downtown Hilo. Spotless, stylish, and solidly constructed, this three
bedroom, 2.5 bath charmer exemplifies iconic residential Hawaiian architecture
including wide eaves, outdoor living space, covered breezeways on 3 sides, a ground
floor lanai for sunrise breakfasts, and a private second-story lanai off the master suite
that offers stunning views of Hilo Bay. Inside, the open floor plan and tidy kitchen are
comfortable and welcoming, and every bedroom offers a beautiful view, either of Hilo
Bay or Mauna Kea. The low maintenance, fenced yard is on a corner lot in lava zone 8.
Other amenities include large garage, owned photovoltaic (PV) system, solar hot water
heater, metal roof freshly painted in 2024, new water line in 2020, and most appliances
have been replaced since 2020. Everything is in excellent condition and move-in ready!
No detail was overlooked in the design of this home: wide eaves provide shade in the
heat of the day and shelter from Hilo’s frequent rain showers. The home is perfectly
oriented to capture the cool mountain breezes in the morning and evening, and
refreshing trade winds off the ocean in the afternoon. Combined with the PV and solar
hot water improvements, utility costs are minimal.

You will love watching the boats and paddlers come and go, humpback whales breach
in the winter, fireworks on the 4th of July, as well as savoring fresh bananas, tangerines,
limes, starfruit, calamansi, papaya, pineapples, and yellow dragon fruit from the yard.
An impeccably maintained home with stunning ocean views, minutes from downtown
Hilo. Newer appliances, lovely landscaping, fruit trees, lava zone 8, and a fully owned
solar system make this a very attractive home for the discriminating Buyer!
