This is a leasehold property.
This nearly 10 acre property offers the sustainable, off-grid lifestyle many dream of and now available for the first time on the market! Perfect for a family or individual seeking to live the farming lifestyle, it combines a solid home, income-producing orchards, and panoramic coastline views with year-round sunsets.
The 2-bedroom, 1-bath 1975 home is well-built, with an additional large room (formerly an office, now storage), a separate carport and attached tool shed housing the off-grid system. A second detached structure provides a covered workspace and secure storage.
Off-Grid Systems Include:
* 2 catchment tanks: steel tank at the top of the property gravity-feeds the home and a second tank supplies the orchards
* 6 PV panels
* 2 Outback solar inverters & 2 Signature Solar EG4 batteries
* Propane on-demand hot water, range, and refrigerator
The property is fully fenced and thoughtfully laid out for farming and homesteading. Mature plantings include 2.5 acres of Kona coffee, lychee, and mixed crops ( *see attached fruit tree list ), plus two large vegetable garden plots, and areas previously planted with taro, sweet potato, and asparagus. With daily farmers markets nearby, there’s ample opportunity to generate a comfortable income from the land.
Located 1 mile up Telephone Exchange Road, directly above Pu‘uhonua O Hōnaunau, the property enjoys sweeping ocean views spanning from Kealakekua Bay to Hōnaunau.
This is a rare offering where sustainable living, income potential, privacy and breathtaking Kona coast scenery come together.
The property overlooks Pu’uhonua O’Honaunau, The City Of Refuge; a National Historical Park, which is a culturally significant Hawai’i landmark. Other nearby beaches include Ho’okena, Manini, Ke’ei and Kealakekua Bay.
