This elegantly appointed ocean view 4 bed/5 bath residence surrounded by 20 acres of tropical orchards in Honomu near the legendary Akaka Falls is in many ways the "best of both worlds." A home with finishes and views that one would find in an exclusive resort; with the purposeful, sustainable lifestyle of a working, profitable farm. Uninterrupted ocean views in one direction; lofty views of Mauna Kea (snowcapped in winter) in the other. Abundant sunny days for indoor/outdoor living and clear nights for stargazing; plenty of rain for growing food and flowers, and the gift of stunning double rainbows and moonbows. A private and serene location; yet easy access via paved roads and only 13 miles from Hilo town.

The single-story home sits lightly on the landscape. Designed with two bedroom wings attached via two 2-car carports and breezeways to a central great room and kitchen for gathering, the home works well for multigenerational living, or entertaining frequent guests.

Just a sample of the designer-selected finishes and fixtures in the central great room/kitchen: custom kitchen cabinets and island with ohia posts, Thermador professional series appliances, solid bamboo flooring. Each piece of furniture throughout the home was carefully selected, and the home is offered furnished, including kitchen items and linens.

Each of the bedroom wings is self-contained with family room, kitchenette, and laundry. The primary suite includes a separate office, spacious bath, and large ocean view lanai. The guest wing has three bedrooms, each with en suite bath.

The orchards feature 653 breadfruit trees, processed on site into a product sold to the restaurant market; plus 112 Brazilian cherry; banana and citrus. In the past flowers from the gardens were sold at the flower stand and the chicken coop produced eggs for sale. Farm complex includes office, equipment storage, and gym. Most equipment available for sale - farm yourself or hire a manager!
