Agent Description

Discover this inviting 7-bedroom, 3-bathroom home in South Hilo's desirable Puueo subdivision. Following a recent update to county records, it now reflects 2,584 sq ft of finished living space (1,292 sq ft per level, including the front lanai), on a 6,969 sq ft lot.

This 1915 gem features a paved and gravel driveway for easy access and a screened lanai for outdoor enjoyment. The fully integrated lower level adds flexible space with 3 bedrooms, a kitchen/dining area, laundry room, and 1 full bath-ideal for extended living or potential rental income under RM-1 zoning (a duplex factor may apply once the gas stove is connected).

The lower level boasts tile flooring, some finished ceilings, and dual entrances for excellent airflow. A shared driveway off Ohai Street provides convenient access, with no HOA for added affordability. County water, HELCO power, and high-speed internet are all available.

Just 1.2 miles from Hilo Bay and minutes from downtown's farmers market, dining, and schools like Hilo Union Elementary, Hilo Intermediate, Hilo High, UH Hilo, and Hawaii Community College. Nestled in Flood Zone X at an elevation of about 50-100 ft, this home brings peace of mind. Its spacious layout and lot are perfect for future tweaks or outdoor projects-a true gem in Hilo's urban core. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
