Property Description

Welcome to your private sanctuary in beautiful North Kohala. This fully fenced property along charming Kapaʻau Road is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping and a thriving food forest, creating the feeling of a secluded island retreat. The meticulously maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers flexible living spaces filled with natural light and gentle island breezes. A separate, permitted art studio or writer’s cabin with its own lanai provides the perfect creative retreat space. Upstairs has been beautifully refreshed wide-plank knotty pine flooring throughout. The remodeled kitchen features quartzite counters, new cabinetry, pantry, and quality appliances including Bosch and KitchenAid. The home has also been recently repainted inside and out and upgraded with new Andersen windows and two large sliding glass doors, bringing the outdoors in. Relax on the spacious covered lanai where soft island breezes and views of the ocean, Maui, and the tops of majestic trees create a peaceful setting for morning coffee or sunset gatherings. Downstairs offers a large studio bedroom with full bath and kitchenette, highlighted by beautiful ʻōhiʻa posts, split-unit Daikin AC, and a Kenmore washer and dryer—ideal for guests or extended living. One of the home’s fun features is the luxurious outdoor shower, tucked into a private tropical setting that may quickly become your favorite place to start or end the day. The productive food forest includes Meyer lemon, Tahitian lime, rambutan, avocado (Sharwell and Yamagata), papaya, ulu, coconut, Washington orange, apple bananas, pineapple, and a raised-bed herb garden. A young Southern Magnolia has just begun producing its first blossoms. A pleasant walk down Kapaʻau Road leads to cafés, restaurants, galleries, and King Kamehameha Park with pool, tennis courts, playground, and golf course.
