There’s more to this property than meets the eye. Although this house is only five minutes from Pahoa Town, the oversized 9,000 sf parcel is deep in the rainforest at the very back border of the Nanawale Estates Subdivision, with no developed neighbors to the front, back, or either side. Ohia, banana, ulu (breadfruit), mango, coconut, pineapple, avocado, ginger, surinam cherry, orange, monkeypod,
mountain apple, bromeliads, and ferns surround the house with color and edible beauty. The house itself is not your ordinary 3 BR, 2 BA, 1232 SF house. To start with this home has beautiful high, T & G wood deck, open-beam ceilings in its open plan living area. The home has also been upgraded recently to include: hardwood floors, custom wood cabinets, concrete countertops in the
kitchen, additional custom cabinetry in the master bedroom, a small canopy roof was added over the existing back lanai, and a new metal roof was put on the entire house. The cherry on top of this sundae is the NEM Agreement photovoltaic system. It’s important to note that the Net Energy Metering Agreement, with this property, contracts HELCO to buy and sell power to and from the system at the same rate (in the newer agreements HELCO created a wholesale rate where they are buying energy from PV systems at a discount and then turn around and sell it back to the private PV system homeowners at a mark-up). That means more energy cost savings for this lucky homeowner! The Nanawale Estates common area facilities include a park, playground, and swimming pool for resident use, not to mention the endless trails and roads for walking and biking. Additional nearby attractions include: MacKenzie State Park, Lava Tree State Monument, and Uncle Robert’s. I’m sure you will agree that it won’t last long with all it has to offer. Aloha!
