Opportunity Awaits in Olaa! Tremendous Potential and Convenience on the Big Island May Be Yours!

Sitting at the foothills of majestic Mauna Loa at a (not too hot, not too cold) comfortable 890' elevation, this 3.526-acre property at 17-701 North Ala Road offers farming possibilities and extraordinary accessibility. At one mile above Kurtistown, essential amenities are nearby like J. Hara Store, 7-Eleven, and Kurtistown Cafe. This corner lot is ideally positioned just 11 miles from Hilo on Highway 11.

The property boasts dual road frontage: 219 feet along Highway 11 and 693 feet along North Ala Road. Previously dozed, partially cleared, and planted with a variety of bamboos, bananas, coconuts, and ornamental plants, (although now overgrown) this land is rich and ready for the next chapter. Unlike many areas in East Hawaii, this is not lava land; instead, it offers fertile, deep soil perfect for a small farm or ag business. Share in the excitement and community of farming and an ag enterprise with other like-minded entrepreneurs towards Puna's growing future.

For prospective buyers with vision, Hawaii County Planning allows for one residential home (farm dwelling) on the property, and there's even the vibrant potential to apply for a Special Use Permit, opening doors to income producing ambitions like a Farmer’s Market or a Food Truck collective food court. Would need to apply with the Hawaii County Planning department. There's such lucrative potential to be found here.

There are no subdivision fees, road fees, or HOA fees here, saving the buyer money and hassles. County water is accessible (installation of a water meter required), and HELCO electricity is available for hookup (with a permit).
