2883 KAIWIKI RD, HILO, HI 96720

11.5 acres just 15 minutes from downtown Hilo at approximately 1,500 feet elevation. This property offers a rare combination of privacy, water features, and long-term potential. With thoughtful opening of the view corridor, the property has the potential to reveal a sweeping ocean view, already visible from the road. The land includes a rustic jungle cabin that could potentially be reclaimed. What sets this parcel apart are its natural features. A real, accessible river runs through the center of the land, creating a beautiful and uncommon focal point, while a second river on the back boundary includes a waterfall feature. The back portion is true wilderness that backs up to the Hilo Forest Reserve. Native hapu’u, ohi’a, koa, and rose apple trees. A new gravel driveway provides improved access, and the setting offers a compelling blend of seclusion, water, elevation, and future possibility. This is a property for someone with a vision for creating something truly special in East Hawaiʻi.
