Let's not allow perfection to be the enemy of good. This is a good house! Almost a hundred years old? Yes. Tiny? Yes. But I like to think of it as a cosy home with history.<br><br>Before homes were fumigated and like a lot of old camp cottages, it's been nibbled on by termites, but seemingly not in the foundation piers. Today, and for many years back, it has been covered by Termite Warranty. The home feels solid. Simply put, it was built, and then shortly after added onto, back in the day prior to building codes.<br><br>The cottage's shortcomings can be tackled one project at a time, over time, but this won't preclude you from in the meantime, living in a quiet neighborhood only a few minutes from banking, post office, shopping, restaurants, library, and all things medical, including our hospital, Hilo Medical Center. From the property it's only a short drive to the Hilo Bay shoreline, Carlsmith and Richardson's beaches, and ony minutes to Honolii for surfing. It's an outstanding location if you're a surfer but love the convenience of being right in Hilo. If you're looking to downsize to a space of just 720 sqft. with front porch, side porch, gated covered parking, 2 mature fruit trees, and a manageable sized lawn, with Municipal water and city gas , (yes, I did say city gas), this little gem could be just what you're looking for.<br><br>All appliances in the kitchen and laundry room, are included.
