Please do not attempt to enter structure. Sold "as is" and as vacant land. The previous owner was a stone worker and apparently worked at the quarry for the planation so there is extensive rock work and even a bridge over the stream. Access is down a private ally so it's not necessary to create access across the stream. It's a magical property for someone looking for something out of the ordinary. Seller does not believe the structure is safe or salvageable.

About South
Hilo
South Hilo, located between Downtown Hilo and Keaukaha, is a coastal and historic Hilo neighborhood with a working harbor edge and rain-soaked greenery. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Kamehameha Ave near the Hilo Farmers Market, where produce stalls, small lunch counters, and local galleries set a steady daytime rhythm. Hilo Farmers Market, Palace Theater, and the Lyman Museum anchor the cultural calendar with food, film, and local history. Plantation-era storefronts and mid-century homes mix with low-rise commercial blocks along the bayfront. Banyan Drive and the shoreline parks frame morning walks and ocean views. Frequent showers and trade winds shape a laid-back, outdoors-forward pace.
