Versatile layouts with city and mountain views

King Manor offers a range of floor plans to suit various lifestyles, from cozy studios to spacious three-bedroom units. Studios, spanning 406 to 537 square feet, feature efficient layouts with rents starting around $1,400 per month. These compact spaces often include walk-in closets and in-unit washer/dryer combinations, maximizing functionality. One-bedroom units, ranging from 506 to 678 square feet, provide a bit more space and are priced from $310,000 to $390,000.

For those requiring more room, two-bedroom units offer between 813 and 1,124 square feet, with prices around $460,000. These larger apartments often feature 1.5 to 2 bathrooms, providing additional comfort for families or those who enjoy extra space. The most expansive options are the three-bedroom units, approximately 1,700 square feet in size, which command prices around $800,000. These premium residences offer the ultimate in urban living space within King Manor. Many units throughout the building have been renovated to include modern amenities such as updated kitchens with new cabinets and appliances, refreshed bathrooms, and contemporary flooring. Large windows are a common feature, allowing ample natural light and offering views of the cityscape, with some units providing glimpses of the mountains or coastline. Air conditioning options vary, with some apartments featuring window units or the potential for installation with board approval. Lanais are a standout feature in many units, providing outdoor space to enjoy Hawaii's pleasant climate and take in the urban or natural scenery.
