55-699-B Kahei Rd Hawi, HI 96719

This magical property is hidden on one acre close to the town of Hawi but in its own sweet world. Every one of the many windows has a gorgeous view of ocean or pond or lush tropical foliage and flowers. The 1,764 sq ft house has two bedrooms and two baths but unlike many 2BR houses its carefully thought out additional nooks and crannies provide a separate office, exercise room, and a covered lanai to enjoy the ocean views. With 900 sq ft of lanai area it feels like a much larger residence.

Built in 2005, it was designed to be easy to maintain and easy to enjoy.This house is ideal for a "green" or sustainable lifestyle with its construction of NUDURA 12-inch insulated concrete walls, windmill, on-demand water heater, and abundant gardens tucked into the wind-protected gulch.

The entrance to the house welcomes you into an restful hallway where chi can gather and you can trade your shoes for slippers. The hallway also separates the master suite with its bath, office and deck with hot tub and exercise room from the main living areas. The second bedroom and bath are situated on the other side of the house for privacy.

The country-style kitchen has a gas cooktop, stainless appliances and generous cabinet and counter space. Dine inside enjoying the view of the pond, or on the lanai with ocean view. A fireplace spans the living room on one side and enclosed deck on the other for cozy evenings.

A two-car garage with lots of storage space opens directly into the laundry/pantry room for convenient unloading.

The original farm building was relocated rather than torn down and has been used as an artist studio. An added "fishing dock" overlooks the pond which is home to visiting ducks.

Be sure to check out the virtual tour of this home, as the flow of space is truly something special. The elements of earth, water, air, and fire are balanced in restful harmony.
