Close to everything, yet far away from it all, in the highly sought after neighborhood of Alae Point. Located on the cul de sac side of the street within minutes to the beach and a 5 minute drive to downtown Hilo. Home features 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, plus a den and possibilities for lower level expansion. An interior staircase leads to an open basement downstairs, which could be turned into a large workshop or family game room. The den, originally built as a 4th bedroom is ideal for guests with it\'s own bathroom and private entrance from the patio. Outdoor patio and lanai give you plenty of space to enjoy the Hilo Bay view. Cruise ships and whales can be seen from this \"almost oceanfront\" location. This home was designed for entertaining, with extra parking in the circular drive, a great room that leads into the dining area and wraparound lanai which connects to the master suite. All three bedrooms and two bathrooms are separated from the rest of the living and entertaining space by double doors. The kitchen was completely remodeled in the early nineties and updated again this past year. All three bathrooms have also been remodeled since their original design.

Built in 1970, 15 Kahoa St. was custom designed and consistently updated throughout the years to remain modern. Upgrades consist of hardwood teak floors throughout, solar tube skylights and solar hot water. Special touches include century old red bricks on the patio and 1\" thick redwood siding. Never before offered on the market, this is a home to be appreciated by the discriminating buyer.
