3.12 acres of prime real estate positioned for commercial opportunity in Hawaiian Ocean View Estates (HOVE). Strategically located on the Hawaii Belt Rd at the corner of Hawaii Blvd - directly across from Kai Loki's restaurant and bar - this property benefits from excellent visibility, steady highway traffic, and convenient access from two main thoroughfares serving the community. The lot is graded and level, offering a strong foundation for future development. A low rock wall wraps approximately half of the cleared portion, creating defined boundaries and added character. The northern half of the property remains wooded, providing flexibility for phased development, expansion, or preservation of natural landscaping. Ocean View serves as the commercial and service hub for the northern Kau district, with an estimated population of approximately 5,000 residents in the immediate area and additional households in surrounding rural subdivisions. For nearly 20 miles in either direction along the highway, there are no services, making this a central location for businesses that meet everyday community needs. Existing amenities in Ocean View include two grocery stores, three gas stations, Ace Hardware, a Post Office, multiple eateries, a Saturday morning swap meet, and various small local businesses. Demand continues for expanded services such as medical, professional, retail, trades-related businesses, self-storage facilities, and other community-serving enterprises. A small propane filling station currently leases a portion of the property, providing established commercial use. The parcel also offers the option to develop a single-family residence. Located approximately one hour south of Kailua-Kona and two hours from Hilo, Ocean View continues to grow as an affordable community on the Big Island's southern coast.
