Additional photo of two story, well built, but unfinished structure near entrance to land. Taken on a day that was cloudy, not a “Hawaii paradise” type day.

Bottom floor, kitchen area, of the two story structure in main community/gathering area. Very rustic. needs work. But quite solid and ready for refinements: propane stoves, refrigerators, comfy furniture for eating and gathering and hardwire connections for the internet.

Walking path from 2 story red structure into the main community/gathering area. Notice coconut trees and bananas as well as rare ornamental palms.

The land has many different “faces.” From lava formations to jungle.

IMG_2726

Another well built, solid, but unfinished structure. Will have windows with screens when finished. This structure is located on the very zen-like environment of the “ah ah” lava formation. Notice the beautiful hardwood Ohia trees with red blossoms and wild ferns. This is not jungle. It is a drier and very pristine eco-system.

Another view of the natural beauty.

IMG_2823

The more sterile, zen-like landscape of the part of the land that has the lava formations. This eco-system is gorgeous, with hardwood Ohia trees, ferns and wild orchids.

IMG_2864

Another structure on the land. A two-story cabin that needs some work, yet located in a beautiful part of the land.

IMG_2825

Another huge open area, much larger than it looks. After weed whacking and mowing, this area will be literally like a park. Room for endless gardens. To the right, the land continues on into an orchard of various trees: starfruit, mac nuts, avocado, cashew apple, lychee, coconuts, mango.

Coconut trees just loading with nuts waiting for the lucky person who can get them down!
