About This Home
As of August 2023This custom home exudes casual elegance! The private, luxurious outdoor living spaces evoke the beauty & magic of Hawai’i, offering delightful surprises at every turn.
The front of the home features a mature tropical garden w/ saltwater pool & spa, enhanced by a poolside waterfall & spa spillway features. An artfully designed 1,000 sq. foot covered pavilion with ohia wood posts sits adjacent to the pool. There is access to the home's guest bathroom from the pool area.
Rich island-grown eucalyptus wood & slate tile flooring flow seamlessly throughout the main house. The spacious living room w/ vaulted ceilings & picture windows, takes full advantage of ocean, garden & pool views. A stunning wood-burning, lava rock fireplace graces the room. There is a cozy lanai off the living room, offering a perfect spot to enjoy Kona sunsets.
The spacious kitchen rests at the heart of the home. An expansive island w/ breakfast bar & adjacent dining room offer a welcoming space for entertaining.
A smartly designed screened lanai leads to a spacious private bedroom suite w/ large walk-in closet. This bathroom has been updated & boasts not one, but two large showers (one indoor & the other outdoor). Three additional bedrooms and a full bath sit on the south side of the home. Shaded, vibrant flowering gardens can be enjoyed from each room.
An added benefit is a totally separate and charming, fully permitted 800 sq. foot guest quarters with one bedroom/one bath sitting at the rear of the upper backyard.
Other features of the property include a fully owned photovoltaic system & solar water heater, safety fencing around the pool area, large pantry & laundry room & an abundance of storage throughout. The backyard is terraced; the lower section is accessed via lava rock stairs. The upper level features a lush lawn leading to a tranquil koi pond & water feature. The property hosts numerous fruit trees & a variety of palms.
