Enjoy the best of the Hamakua Coast with this private 25-acre estate in Honomu, just a 5-minute walk from iconic Akaka Falls. Surrounded by large parcels and lush tropical landscapes, this self-sufficient retreat offers ocean views, open pastures, waterfalls, and a peaceful, secluded setting. A gated concrete driveway winds through native foliage, offering privacy and easy access. At the top, an elevated custom-built home blends thoughtful design, quality craftsmanship, and natural beauty. The 2,758 sq ft residence is permitted as a 3-bedroom but used as 4, offering flexibility for guests, remote work, or multigenerational living. Soaring 19-foot vaulted ceilings, Robusta Eucalyptus hardwood, ceramic tile, skylights, and a dual-sided fireplace create warmth and character. The kitchen with stainless appliances flows into a cozy dining area. A full-length lanai showcases panoramic views of pastures, forests, and the Pacific. Trade winds and colorful sunrises make it perfect for relaxing. Extensive infrastructure adds value: 704 sq ft garage, 264 sq ft carport, 26' x 40' equipment barn, wind tunnel, and ag structures provide space for storage, expansion, or ag use. Fully fenced and cross-fenced with paddocks ready for livestock or horses, the property supports diverse farm and ranch possibilities. Hundreds of established Cuban mahogany trees offer long-term potential for sustainable hardwood cultivation. With high traffic from Akaka Falls and roadside visibility, there’s strong potential for a farm stand or ag business. Multiple access points and thoughtful layout allow this to remain separate—preserving the privacy of the main home. Powered by 32 owned solar panels with battery backup, propane generator, and solar water heating, this estate blends comfort, sustainability, and opportunity. Bordering State Land with waterfalls, this Hamakua gem offers seclusion, scale, and natural beauty. Please Watch Video!
