About This Home

As of July 2025

Never before seen on market! Bring your creativity to life with this opportunity to transform an architecturally one-of-a-kind home into an oasis on the slopes of Hualalai. This unique pod-style home offers tranquil living with expansive ocean views on a terraced lot featuring 3 separate structures joined under one roof with a central courtyard area, and a large balcony with a built-in hot tub and grill perfect for entertaining. The central pod contains the main living area with a full kitchen and bath. The two additional pods are large and spacious bedrooms with ensuite baths featuring massive jet-tubs that cultivate a spa-like experience. Each structure is connected by covered walkways and tiled decking that truly inspire indoor-outdoor living. The structures are built with hardwoods like knotty pine, cedar, and redwood, with Koa wood elements throughout. You'll discover ample parking with a two-car garage and an uncovered parking pad for two additional vehicles at the top of a gently sloped, wide driveway. Rock walls throughout the property add to the diversity of this lot with terraced areas that offer incredible landscaping potential. The central courtyard has a perfect flow with direct access to the back garden. Directly facing the ocean, this property presents an incredible and unique place to call home.
