This is certifiably one of the most incredible pieces of property on the Hamakua Coast. This home sits on 3.775 acres surrounded by large mostly undeveloped land offering unobstructed views in all directions. The land is surrounded on two sides by ocean; to the west side Onomea Bay and to the North side the open ocean. Onomea is located approx. 6 mi. north of Hilo. This property is a rare coastal point of land, a peninsula of sorts, surrounded by water and ancient rock formation views. The land juts out into the world famous Onomea Bay and looks directly into the historic Onomea Bay Arch. The land gently slopes towards the ocean; on the north and east sides it meets the popular Scenic Route bridge at mile marker 20. This private and gated property alone is beyond majestic and enviable; add the Frank Lloyd Wright, Craftsman inspired home, built like a luxury fortress w/a concrete super structure and you have a one of kind multi-dimensional home of strength, beauty and unpretentiousness. The huge open beam ceiling leaps up to the central cupola at a height of 23 ft. featuring a custom bronze and art glass chandelier. The posts and beams are exposed in their natural color. 8-foot glass doors open on to the huge ocean side lanai. At approx. 200 ft. above sea level, the home sits well back and up from the ocean—see aerials. Powered by the sun w/a complete Photo Voltaic system yet tied into the HELCO grid at a cost of $22 a month. An underground water cistern holds approx. 17,000 gal. within a custom concrete tank. The property has a certified organic tea farm which grows, harvests and sells under the Onomea Tea Farm label. Continue with the tea if you prefer however continuing w/growing tea is not required of the sale; list price is based on the home and land. The home is 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms of 3374 sqft. of living space and approx. 1746 utilitarian space plus 854 sqft. of lanai.
