A must-see, one-of-a-kind estate just minutes from Kona town, offered for the first time in nearly 25 years. Situated on 1.2 acres of fully landscaped grounds, this property is a plant lover’s paradise, featuring 16 mature fruit trees—including avocado and mango—lush tropical landscaping, and automatic landscape lighting.

Enjoy resort-style living with two large swimming pools, a built-in hot tub, and over 100 feet of ocean and sunset views. Relax in complete privacy with terraced gardens, expansive outdoor living areas, and space to entertain or unwind.

This unique property includes a grandfathered bed-and-breakfast permit registered with the County of Hawaii. Sale includes all archived business documents and licensing, offering a rare and valuable turnkey opportunity.

Zoned to allow for a self-contained Ohana unit, the property offers excellent expansion potential. The main residence features 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms across 3,708 sq ft, with a spacious layout ideal for multi-generational living or flexible use. The kitchen and primary bathroom were recently remodeled, adding modern touches to this classic estate.

Additional structures include a 1000+ sq ft workshop/storage shed, a 3-car garage with automatic doors, and extra guest parking. Built on a slab foundation with open beam ceilings and a standing seam metal roof, the home blends comfort, durability, and island charm.

With paved county roads, proximity to town, and sweeping ocean views, this is a legacy property not to be missed.
