About This Home
Discover a rare opportunity to own a 5.74-acre estate offering both lifestyle and income potential. Surrounded by a stream on one side and a river on the other, this unique property with stunning mountain views provides a picturesque backdrop in every direction! Stroll through the bamboo forest, picnic along the river or swim in the nearby private swimming hole.
The property includes a comfortable 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath main home, plus a separate 1 bed/1 bath cottage: perfect for guests, extended family, rental income or employee housing. The main home features a spacious great room with soaring ceilings and an abundance of windows for natural light. The recently upgraded kitchen and baths, plus expansive wrap around lanai are perfect for indoor/outdoor living. Wake up to the peaceful sounds of the river and lush tropical surroundings. The guest cottage has its own private entrance, separate from the main house, complete with everything you need for comfortable island living!
The land is lush and productive, with approximately 300 mature cacao trees forming the heart of an active chocolate farm. There is also a surplus of fruit trees including citrus, lyche, avocado, ulu, mac nut, longan, banana, dragon fruit and more. For those seeking a business venture, a fully equipped commercial kitchen and pavilion are already in place, designed for farm-to-table experiences, events, or production. The established chocolate farm allows a unique opportunity to step into the world of artisanal chocolate making from "bean to bar". Experience growing, processing and even selling the chocolate at the retail shop in Hanalei Town (offered by separate bill of sale).
Whether you’re looking for a peaceful retreat, a working farm, or a unique investment, this property combines the best of Kauai living with incredible potential. The land has not been subdivided (not a CPR). This special location provides a one-of-a-kind, serene and private oasis.
