Property details
About 15-929 Lemiwai Rd
This is one of two side-by-side lots that are being offered individually—or together for a savvy buyer looking to create a large estate or build two custom homes (refer to TMK: 3-1-5-58-14 for more info). Each parcel has been staked, partially cleared, showcasing vibrant native Hawaiian flora while preserving privacy and the natural beauty of the landscape. These properties are steeped in cultural and historical significance—from nearby ancient Hawaiian heiau dedicated to the god Lono, to the historic Puna Trail once used by early Hawaiians, ranchers, and even U.S. military during WWII. Once part of the historic Shipman Ranch, this land offers a rare blend of spiritual heritage, agricultural history, and coastal serenity. With thoughtful design, a two-story home would likely capture sweeping ocean views, allowing you to wake up to sunrises over the Pacific and the sounds of the sea. Located in Lava Zone 3 and accessible via paved roads, this area combines peaceful seclusion with modern access—only a short drive from Hilo and essential amenities. Whether you're looking for a personal sanctuary or a unique investment opportunity, this is a special place to plant roots.
