Bought brand new in 2024 and barely lived in, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in Hawaiian Shores Recreational Estates is move-in ready with modern finishes throughout. Vaulted ceilings and an open-concept layout create a bright, airy feel in the main living area. The galley-style kitchen flows into a generous laundry room with additional cabinetry, countertop space, and a sink - a practical touch that sets this home apart. The primary bedroom includes an ensuite bath, and ceiling fans throughout keep things comfortable year-round. Sliding glass doors open to a 12,040 sq ft lot with plenty of room to create your own outdoor sanctuary. The covered attached carport accommodates two vehicles. Hawaiian Shores Recreational Estates is one of the few Puna subdivisions with a private piped water system - no catchment required. Paved roads, mail delivery, and overhead electric are all in place. Community amenities include a solar-heated pool, tennis and basketball courts, a playground, and covered BBQ pavilions at Honu Park, plus two additional neighborhood parks. Pahoa town is just minutes away with grocery stores, restaurants, a pharmacy, medical facilities, banks, and the Puna Kai Shopping Center. Hilo is approximately 30 minutes for big-box retail, the airport, and Hilo Medical Center.
