If all you wish to hear on your lanai is bird song and the wind in the trees, take a look at 32-640 Pīhā-Kahuku Road. Designed by Bamboo Living and constructed in 2023 on the edge of the Hilo Forest Reserve in a state conservation district, this home is located at the mauka end of Pīhā-Kahuku Road, about three miles from the center of the nearest village, Ninole. Set approximately 1800 feet above sea level, the 18.3-acre site includes hundreds of mature ‘ōhi‘a lehua, koa and native tree ferns and abuts thousands of acres of undeveloped land.
Constructed of bamboo, this fully permitted home enjoys rich natural textures and a nearly seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. It features two bedrooms, plus sleeping loft, three full bathrooms and a handsome chef’s kitchen with gas cooking and undercounter drawer-style refrigerator and freezer. Other high-end details include walk-in showers, double bathroom sinks, bidet toilets with soft-close lids and ceiling fans.
Below the house a two-car attached garage is equipped with EV charger. The garage is plumbed and has a separate entrance, should you wish one day to convert it into additional living area.
The homesite is located on the southeastern flank of Mauna Kea and bordered by Waikaumalo Stream on the northwest, while the Kalaeha Stream (with gentle waterfall and naturally formed pool) crosses lengthwise through the middle of the property. The homesite is level, and there is a garden area that is permitted by the district. Also outside: a ground-mounted oversized photovoltaic system with back-up generator, septic system with oversized catchment capacities. Pīhā-Kahuku Road – county-owned for most of its length – passes a cell phone tower on its way to the property, with the result that the house has excellent cell service.
From the lanai, there is an ocean view, but you won’t see any other structures. Looking to get away from it all? This is where you will find your splendid isolation.
