The neighborhood is characterized by a high concentration of medical professionals who value the area's refined character and proximity to the nearby Hilo Hospital (now Benioff Medical Center), creating an inviting, professional and welcoming environment,
The crown jewel of the property is a phenomenal secret garden that is truly a private sanctuary. Here, a custom waterfall centerpiece provides a soothing soundtrack to evenings spent around the fire pit, all illuminated by exquisite outdoor lighting that transforms the landscape into a glowing oasis after dark. Inside, the home’s layout is as functional as it is richly beautiful, featuring expansive forest views from walls of windows on the main level, bringing the lush Hilo greenery indoors.
