Description

Welcome to 234 Kipa Street, a thoughtfully updated home in a quiet Hilo neighborhood conveniently located near Hilo Municipal Golf Course, UH Hilo, Hilo Medical Center, shopping, dining, and more. Set on a beautifully landscaped corner lot, the property offers mature tropical landscaping, expansive grassy yard space, and inviting outdoor living areas including a spacious covered lanai. A partially fenced yard provides additional flexibility for pets, gardening, or outdoor enjoyment. The home features a fully owned and net-metered 17-panel photovoltaic solar system with 5.59 kW capacity through HELCO, helping maintain exceptionally low electric costs of approximately $30/month. Split-zone air conditioning on both ends of the home adds year-round comfort and efficiency. A new septic system was installed in 2018. Recent improvements include LifeProof flooring throughout, energy-efficient windows and sliding glass doors, a remodeled kitchen, designer front entry, dedicated laundry/pantry area, updated ceiling fans, and brushed nickel hardware throughout. The home is also equipped with installed hurricane clips and is being offered unfurnished. Though permitted as a 2-bedroom home, there are 2 additional bonus rooms with windows and closets offering flexible space for guests, home offices, hobbies, or additional living areas. The 2 bathrooms are ideally located between living & bedrooms, for convenience from anywhere in the home. The living room has vaulted ceilings and lovely views, with a bathroom and 2 sleeping rooms on either side of the living room. Flexible, convenient living. A well-maintained and move-in ready property offering comfort, functionality, and a convenient Hilo location. Be sure to view the video tour to fully appreciate the setting and outdoor spaces this property has to offer. This home comes unfurnished and move in ready!
