Built in 1936 and filled with classic plantation-era character, this ocean-view home sits in a quiet Laupahoehoe neighborhood just above the coastline. Shoji-style sliding doors, rice-paper windows, original hardwood floors, and 9-foot ceilings reflect the home’s Japanese and Old Hawai‘i influence. A peaceful tea room opens toward the ocean, offering a bright and inviting place to enjoy the views and cooling tradewinds.

The main level features three comfortable bedrooms and one full bath, along with 22 newer Milgard windows that bring in natural light from all sides. Downstairs is a finished lower level with its own entrance, a large living area, a fourth room currently used as an office or craft space, a full bathroom with walk-in shower, laundry area, storage room, and a compact garage. This flexible layout is ideal for guests, multigenerational living, a studio, or a home workspace.

The property includes tropical landscaping, a solar hot water system, and a convenient location between Hilo and Honokaa, offering both coastal living and easy access to schools, services, and Laupahoehoe Point. If you love vintage charm, ocean views, and a home that feels peaceful and unique, this one is truly worth seeing.
