A mid-rise retreat in the heart of Makiki
Wilder House, a 9-story condominium completed in 1976, stands as a testament to Makiki's enduring appeal. Located in this vibrant Honolulu neighborhood, the building houses 59 units, offering a mix of one and two-bedroom layouts. Its simple facade belies the comfortable living spaces within, where residents enjoy the convenience of urban living coupled with the tranquility of a residential area. Situated just a mile from downtown Honolulu, Wilder House provides easy access to the city's amenities while maintaining a sense of community often associated with Makiki's long-term residents.
Spacious units with mountain and city views
Wilder House offers a range of floor plans to suit various needs. The one-bedroom units, starting at approximately 600 square feet, are priced from $305,000 to $353,000. These units typically include one bathroom and offer a practical layout for singles or couples. The two-bedroom units are more spacious, measuring around 900 square feet, also with one bathroom.
Many units have been thoughtfully updated over the years. Renovations often include modern touches such as quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and luxury vinyl tile flooring. The kitchens in some units boast ample storage with upper and lower cabinets, including convenient pull-out shelves and under-cabinet lighting.
A standout feature in many units is the den area, which can serve multiple purposes - from a home office to a reading nook or hobby room. This flexible space often connects to the lanai, expanding the living area and providing additional natural light. The lanais themselves are generously sized, perfect for enjoying the mountain or city views that many units offer.
For added convenience, units typically come equipped with in-unit washers and dryers. Air conditioning is available in most units, though the building's design also allows for natural ventilation, taking advantage of the cooling trade winds. The largest units in the building reach up to 864 square feet, providing ample space for comfortable living.
Secure living with essential comforts
Wilder House offers a selection of amenities designed to enhance residents' daily lives. The building features a refreshing pool, perfect for a cool dip on warm Hawaiian days. For social gatherings or community events, a meeting room is available to residents. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the BBQ area, ideal for casual get-togethers or family cookouts.
Security is a priority at Wilder House, with a secured entrance system and a resident manager on-site. The property is pet-friendly, allowing residents to share their homes with their furry companions.
Parking is well-considered, with each unit assigned a parking stall in the secure, gated garage. Many of these spots are covered, providing protection for vehicles. For added convenience, storage lockers are available in the parking area, offering extra space for residents' belongings.
The building's elevator has been recently modernized, ensuring smooth and reliable service for residents. Ongoing maintenance, including spalling work and exterior painting, demonstrates the commitment to keeping Wilder House in excellent condition for years to come.
A blend of urban convenience and local charm
Makiki, where Wilder House is located, offers a unique blend of urban convenience and local Hawaiian charm. The neighborhood is known for its long-term residents and diverse community, creating a stable and welcoming atmosphere.
Just a short walk from Wilder House, residents can find Makiki District Park, a local hub for recreation and community activities. The park features open green spaces, community gardens, sports fields, and an outdoor pool, providing ample opportunities for exercise and relaxation.
For everyday needs, Makiki Shopping Village is conveniently close. This local shopping center houses a variety of shops and services, including eateries, a market, and the popular Vintage Wine Cellar. The newly opened Chick-fil-A, one of only three locations on the island, has become a popular spot for quick meals.
Food enthusiasts will appreciate the diverse dining options in the area. Honolulu Burger Co. Makiki, known for its locally sourced ingredients, is just a short walk away. For those seeking international flavors, Golden Pork Tonkotsu offers delicious Japanese ramen, while nearby establishments serve everything from sashimi to Indian cuisine.
Education is well-represented in the neighborhood. Robert Louis Stevenson Middle School and President Theodore Roosevelt High School are both within walking distance, with the latter ranked as one of the top public high schools in Hawaii. For higher education, the University of Hawaii at Manoa is just a short distance away, offering over 200 degree programs.
While Makiki itself is primarily residential, the vibrant Ala Moana area is easily accessible. Here, residents can enjoy the expansive Ala Moana Center, the world's largest open-air shopping mall, featuring a wide array of retail options, dining experiences, and regular cultural events like hula performances.
Well-connected with multiple transit options
Wilder House benefits from its central location, offering residents multiple transportation options. The area is served by several bus lines, making it easy to navigate the city without a car. The nearest bus stop, Wilder Ave & Piikoi St, is just steps away from the building. From here, residents can catch buses on routes such as Makiki-Ala Moana, Nuuanu-Punahou-McCully, University-Ala Moana, and Waikiki-Ala Moana, connecting them to key areas of Honolulu.
For those who prefer to walk, the neighborhood is quite pedestrian-friendly. Many daily necessities, including grocery stores, restaurants, and parks, are within comfortable walking distance. The area's flat terrain and wide sidewalks make it easy to run errands or enjoy a leisurely stroll.
Cycling is also a viable option in Makiki. While not as extensive as some other cities, there are bike-friendly routes in the area. The city's bike-share program, Biki, has a station on Makiki Street, providing an eco-friendly option for short trips.
For residents who drive, Wilder House's location provides easy access to major roads. The H1 Freeway is nearby, offering a quick route to other parts of Honolulu. This proximity is particularly convenient for commuters or those heading to Daniel K. Inouye International Airport, which is about a 15-minute drive away.
Despite the good public transit options, many residents, especially those living in the northern, more elevated parts of Makiki, find having a car beneficial. The building's secure parking garage ensures that car owners have a safe place to store their vehicles, adding to the convenience of car ownership in this urban setting.
