This classic Hawaiian plantation home overlooks Laupahoehoe Point and provides outstanding ocean views above the Hamakua coastline. County records show this home previously hosted 4 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. Currently, the vintage upper level has 1 bedroom, a full bath, and a spacious living/kitchen/dining area that opens onto a large, wraparound lanai for indoor-outdoor living. The most recent permitted renovation raised the building two feet to full ceiling height on the lower level; that process included removing and replacing the upper lanai, the interior and exterior stairways, and the lower-level walls which are now smart-sided 2x6 hurricane braced shear walls. Structural work on the lower level has been completed, leaving the interior to be finished to fit your lifestyle needs. All permits opened thus far have been completed. Opportunity awaits a new owner/builder/contractor looking to step-in where the current owners left off. The yard is extensively landscaped and contains a large variety of mature fruit trees; naval orange, tangerine, ulu, guava, Brazilian cherry, grapefruit, papaya, avocado, and lemon. Pineapple, banana, lilikoi, and dragon fruit plants. The landscaping also includes many ornamentals, both native and exotic; plumeria, hau, ixora, ti plants, bromeliad, anthurium, orchids, and more. Laupahoehoe is a small, vibrant community midway between Hilo and Waimea along Hwy. 19, with a pre-K through grade 12 Public Charter School, community pool, and public library. Papa’aloa Country Store and Cafe for groceries/take-out/restaurant with bar and live music, Minute Stop/Convenience Store and the Laupahoehoe Train Museum are all within walking distance. Laupahoehoe Point Beach State Park is only minutes away.

Be amazed by vast ocean and Laupahoehoe Point views from this tastefully restored 1970 redwood home perched high above the Hamakua Coast. From the moment you walk in, it feels as though you’re stepping straight toward the ocean — the horizon filling the living room and the trade winds moving softly through. The owners added a covered lanai completely around the home, offering seemingly endless ocean views and a beautiful blend of indoor and outdoor living. Inside, the timeless craftsmanship of the original build shines through: redwood walls, pine ceilings, and hardwood floors, all restored to their vintage charm. Updates include some newer appliances, fixtures, doors, an electric water heater, and quartz countertops. Both bathrooms feature ceramic tile; one with a classic cast-iron tub and shower. Set among tangerine and avocado trees, this property captures the essence of old-Hawai‘i island living — serene, simple, and immersed in nature. Watch whales from your lanai, hear the ocean’s ever-changing rhythm, and feel the calm that comes from being perched above one of the island’s most dramatic coastlines. Laupahoehoe is a peaceful community of about 1,200 residents, known for its friendly atmosphere and spectacular coastal scenery. Conveniently located along Highway 19, it’s approximately 35 minutes from Hilo and 45 minutes from Waimea. Nearby Honokaʻa and Waimea offer excellent dining options, including Merriman’s, Fish & Hog, Big Island Brewhaus, and many more plus local farmers markets and boutique shops. This cliffside home offers vintage Hawai‘i charm and spectacular views.
