About This Home

As of August 2025

This oceanfront, ranch-style home offers relaxed island living with wide ocean views and your own in-ground saltwater pool. The home features 1 bedroom, 2 bathrooms, and an oversized recreation room with a private entrance—ideal for extra space or guests. A covered lanai sits between the house and the pool, perfect for enjoying the view.

The detached utility room includes laundry and a second bathroom, great for pool days. Concrete walkways lead from both sides of the house to the pool deck.

Upgrades include a new pool pump, booster pump, and robotic pool cleaner. A second refrigerator in the recreation room adds extra storage. All appliances were replaced in 2022, with a new over-range microwave and a 2025 Samsung Bluetooth range-oven added more recently.

The home runs on a 20-panel solar system with a Tesla Powerwall (fixed $292/month loan). Water is supplied by three polyethylene catchment tanks with a total capacity of 10,500 gallons, two for the house and one for the pool. A brand-new Grundfos on-demand Bluetooth water pump has been installed, and a spare is included.

Stay connected with high-speed fiber-optic internet (1 Gbps+) from Hawaiian Telecom. Stay secure with eight wireless, solar-powered cameras providing full perimeter coverage and remote access.

This home is in Flood Zone X. Pest control is prepaid through July 2026—tenting was completed in 2022, and quarterly treatments remain active and under warranty for another two years with, free annual inspections.

The yard features a variety of trees and plants to include fan palms, Manila palms, Samoan dwarf coconuts, pineapples, bromeliads, and a raised-bed vegetable garden.

Property is located in the Special Management Area (SMA). Buyers should perform their own due diligence regarding future plans, permits, and any information they deem material to their purchase or offer price.
