About 13-1005 Malama St
Beautiful, custom-built self-sustaining “moveable” residence tucked into a lush 1 acre tropical property in Leilani Estates on the Eastside of the Big Island. This cozy home has 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and 2 loft areas plus a large covered lanai, making for a comfortable and affordable dream property. Built in 2022, this off-grid home features 6 owned solar panels with back-up battery, generator, a 5,000 gallon catchment tank and tankless water heater. The home was built to be moveable. It can be relocated elsewhere on the property or moved to another location completely! <br>Through the front gate and down the winding driveway you will come to the home located about ¾ of the way back. Most of the property has been kept as a natural buffer but around the house is a nice grass lawn and ornamental plantings. A great place to enjoy the beautiful weather. A new owner can certainly expand the greenspace for more lawn, plant fruit trees, add a structure – there is plenty of room for all of it!! Beyond the back boundary is large acreage land adding to the peacefulness and privacy of the property.<br>The 349 sqft of front lanai is large enough for a table with seating, BBQ, potted plants and more. Through the glass front door is the kitchen, with plenty of storage, and living room area with its 2 loft spaces. On one side of the home is the bedroom with a large closet, and on the other side is the full-sized bathroom. There is a dedicated laundry/storage room with washer accessed from the lanai plus a stand-alone shed for lawn equipment and general storage. <br>Leilani Estates has high-speed fiber-optic, cable, wireless or satellite internet, paved roads and curbside mail.<br>Conveniently located just a short drive from Pahoa town, for easy access to shopping, banking, and dining. Within 15 minutes, you can be at the coast, soaking in the stunning Pacific Ocean. This property embodies the essence of island living—an exceptional blend of comfort, style, and affordability.
