Property Description
This 3-bedroom home is full of island charm, situated on a generous 20,104 sq ft lot with room to grow. With the right planning and permits, there's potential to build up to 3 additional structures—perfect for a multi-generational compound, income-producing rentals, or your own tropical retreat.
But that's not all! Head downstairs to discover a beautifully finished lower level, completed by a previous owner with pine tongue-and-groove paneling and natural lava rock features that add warmth and character. This level includes FOUR extra rooms—ideal for home offices, workshops, hobby spaces, or extra storage—plus a utility room with a large shower and a separate toilet area. It could even function as additional sleeping quarters.
