4 West Hawaii Real Estate | April 26, 2017 Featured Property Outdoor living, expansive views in Holualoa Nestled above Kailua-Kona near the artists’ village of Holualoa, this deluxe custom residence occupies more than an acre of gorgeous property showcasing an expansive lawn and stellar ocean views. Fully gated and enclosed by a fi ve-foot lava-rock wall, the spacious and practical yard is perfect for pets to roam, kids to play and dads to practice their chip shots. The four-bedroom, two-bath house includes a dramatic porte-cochere entrance fi nished in quartzite. The sheltered area also doubles as a natural gathering place for outdoor entertaining and barbecues. Start your day on the lanai with a hot cup of Kona coffee grown at nearby farms in the neighborhood. Watch the boats heading out of Honokohau Harbor with a view stretching from the Old Airport Park to Kohnaiki. Inside this thoughtfully designed 1,774-square-foot home, vaulted ceilings and numerous windows add a sense of spaciousness and plenty of natural light, especially in the great room where ocean views prevail. Travertine tile and Brazilian cherry hardwood fl oors set the stage for quintessential island-style living throughout. Custom-designed and architecturally distinctive, the kitchen features African mahogany cabinets with soft-closing hardware and ample storage. Norwegian blue-pearl granite countertops and top-of-the-line stainless-steel appliances complement the tropical look. Private and spacious, the master suite offers a luxurious setting that opens up to the lanai for beautiful ocean views. Handcrafted shoji doors conceal the master bathroom, which features a walk-in travertine shower with dual fi xtures and a jetted soaking tub. The solar hot-water system helps keep energy costs low, as does the home’s 10-panel photovoltaic system, which is connected to a HELCO net-metering program that drastically reduces monthly electric bills. Another highlight is the extra-deep garage designed for serious projects. This convenient and practical space is already equipped with workbenches, abundant shelf space and a protective, epoxy fl oor coating. The cool, 1,500-foot Holualoa elevation provides a perfect year-round climate for gardening, as evidenced by the vast selection of fruit that grows on the property including orange, mango, starfruit, jaboticaba, banana, avocado, lemon, lime, Surinam cherry and Mysore raspberries. Enjoy growing your own produce with two vegetable gardens. The home’s central location provides easy proximity to the nearby commercial centers of Kailua-Kona, just a 10-minute drive down the hill. The village of Holualoa includes an elementary school, post offi ce, shops, restaurants and cafés.
