Lyman Kona Coffee Farm
and accompanying BnB offers a rare
opportunity to own an established,
income-generating property at an
idyllic 2,000-foot elevation.
Located just 15 minutes from

includes a two-story, four-bedroom/
three-bath main residence, plus a
separate, fi ve-bedroom/four-bath residence
that operates as the successful
Mango Sunset BnB Inn.
The property is zoned A-3A, which
allows for possible subdividing. The
BnB can continue to operate as is, or be
converted into a vacation rental or longterm
lease rental. The coffee business
includes the production of 100-percent
organic Kona Coffee, the prestigious Lyman
Kona Coffee label, and an established
customer list and website.
Farmed organically since its inception
in 2003, Lyman Kona Coffee Farm

deck, weighing station, staging
area, coffee dry mill, fermentation tank,
fully screened drying deck, pulping
machine, a 10-pound coffee roaster,
and an electric fi nish dryer with dehumidifi

storage for de-humidifi ed coffee.
The average rainfall is 42 inches per
year, but if needed there is a drip-irrigation
system. In addition to municipal
water supply, 47,000 gallons of rainwater
catchment storage features four levels
of fi ltering and treatment. Additional

mower, chipper, power washer, weed
whacker, fertilizer spreader and sprayer.
There are many great features on

With 1,456 square feet of living area
and 312 square feet of covered lanai, the
distinctive BnB residence is being sold
turnkey with furnishings. The home is
