Einfamilienhaus in Hilo

Okay, let’s start with the ceilings. Nine feet. You’ll notice the second you walk in, and you’ll keep noticing every time you’re not ducking under a fan.

Located less than .3 miles from Waiakea Elementary and Waiakea Intermediate School. No more waiting.

This house was built in 2019, which on Kehaulani St basically makes it the new kid. Most homes on the street date back to the ’70s. This one has a metal roof, ductless A/C, and nothing you’ll need to fix this weekend.

The kitchen is where everyone will end up anyway, so it might as well be good. Quartz counters wrap around a gas cooktop, so you can cook and talk at the same time. There’s a wall oven, a built-in microwave, fridge has a craft ice machine ( wow your guests) and a glass tile backsplash that catches the afternoon light. Those lantern lights over the dining table? Kind of the best part.

Now the primary bathroom. Two sinks, so nobody fights over the mirror. A walk-in shower with no door and a smooth river-stone floor. And a jetted tub for the nights Hilo rains sideways, which, let’s be honest, is a lot of nights.

4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 2,240 sq ft, all on one level. No stairs. Ever.

Outside: a 15,006 sq ft lot, a 2-car garage, and a wide driveway with plenty of room for extra cars or a boat.

School run: you’re in the Waiākea area. That’s Waiākea Intermediate, then Waiākea High (go Warriors), right across from UH Hilo. Short drive in the morning, and nobody’s stuck in traffic across town.

Boring but good: fee simple, Flood Zone X, county water, no HOA, no CC&Rs. Nobody’s going to tell you what color to paint the mailbox.

And the plot twist: VA loan assumption available at 3.25% APR; seller requires substitution of entitlement. Yes, 3.25%. Translation: you could step into the seller’s existing VA loan and their rate instead of starting over at today’s rates. Ask your lender about this one.

Buyer to verify school assignment with HIDOE.
