Single Family Detached Captain Cook

Set on 1.44 acres in the green hillsides of South Kona at an ideal elevation, this impeccably maintained home pairs the island’s most sought-after climate with move-in-ready care. Cooler evenings, regular rainfall, and a landscape that stays vibrantly green year-round make this one of the most comfortable places to live on the Big Island.

The entire lot has just been bulldozed and graded, with fresh soil brought in and a graceful border of areca palms and podocarpus planted around the property. The result is a clean, level canvas ready for gardens, coffee, orchard, or whatever you envision, framed by tropical privacy from the moment you arrive.

The lot was subdivided prior to 1976, which allows the owner to build an additional dwelling without a farm plan. That is a rare advantage on agricultural land. The roof, entire exterior and some of the interior were freshly repainted in 2026. The home was fumigated in 2023, and a termite warranty transfers with the sale. Solar hot water keeps utility costs low. From the home, enjoy a small view of Kealakekua Bay, a glimpse of one of Hawaii’s most historic and beautiful places.

Downstairs, a 396 sq ft finished basement offers flexible space for a home office, workshop, or hobbies. With some additional finishing, it could become a separate studio rental. The oversized carport is perfect for parties and has an additional bathroom with laundry. Mature mango, avocado, and Jaboticaba grace the lot with fruit when in season. The home is within a 10 minute drive of iconic Pu’uhonua O Honaunau(2 steps), Manini Beach, and Kealakekua Bay. There are also restaurants and coffee shops in the immediate area. Kona Airport is a 45 minute drive away.
