16-520 Orchidland Dr Keaau, Hawaii 96749

This classic Hawaiian plantation-style home is rich with history and charm. Originally built in 1955 in Old Hilo Town, two homes were relocated to Orchidland Estates and thoughtfully merged together, creating a one-of-a-kind residence that reflects the character of old Hawaii. The spacious, open living room flows naturally through the home, which features beautiful hardwood floors. The large kitchen, front lanai, and inviting reading nook all capture inspiring distant ocean views and the glow of the morning sunrise. A generous covered outdoor area extends the living space and is ideal for entertaining, while a large workshop adds exceptional functionality. The property sits on a desirable, almost square three-acre lot that has been lovingly cultivated into a gardener's paradise. Fruit-bearing trees include multiple citrus, avocado, starfruit, banana, and lychee. The grounds are equally rich in ornamental plantings – blue jade, crotons, palms, bamboo, hapu'u ferns, gingers, and much more. Located approximately 15 minutes from the Kea'au Town Center – offering dining, fuel, grocery, and pharmacy options – and approximately 30 minutes from Hilo International Airport. A truly unique property that must be seen to be fully appreciated.
