11-3273-A Alaula St, VOLCANO, HI 96785

Property Description

Not just your average developer’s home, this custom-designed Volcano retreat was thoughtfully created with deep appreciation and respect for the unique native landscape. Tucked away from the road, the home is surrounded by soaring ʻōhiʻa trees and lush uluhe ferns, with grounds preserved and landscaped to maximize natural serenity, privacy, and connection to the forest. The adjacent lot (TMK 3-1-1-046-117) is also available separately, creating an extra buffer from Alaula St and the opportunity to add approximately 10,000 square feet to the estate. Inside, soaring high ceilings and expansive south-facing windows flood the open interior with warm natural light. At the heart of the home, a striking see-through lava-rock fireplace serves as a cozy centerpiece, offering ambient warmth and views of the flames from both the main living area and the primary suite. The intentional split-living layout currently functions as a comfortable 2-bedroom residence, while Hawaii County records reflect a 3-bedroom, 2-bath configuration. The third bedroom is currently utilized as an open flex space—ideal for a creative studio, home office, or media room—with framing already in place to easily convert back into a private bedroom. After a day exploring nearby trails, rinse off in the private, rock-wall-enclosed outdoor shower set beneath the native ʻōhiʻa canopy, or head inside to the spacious walk-in shower finished with floor-to-ceiling tile. Energy independence and low-utility living are built right in, featuring a fully owned 27-panel photovoltaic system paired with a robust Sol-Ark inverter, on-demand tankless water heater, propane range, and a whole-house catchment system with UV filtration. Combining bespoke architecture, seamless indoor-outdoor living, and off-grid efficiency, this tranquil sanctuary captures the quintessential cool-climate Volcano lifestyle—just a few miles from Volcano Village and Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park.
