12 Acre Hawai’i Modern Ranch $2.998m
Paradise is calling. Don’t let this call go to voicemail, or you’ll miss a rare opportunity to own an extraordinary island property, finished in 2007, and now offered by the original owner.
Feel the embrace of tropical breezes from this more than 12-acre property, an ultra-private sanctuary with jaw-dropping views of the ocean, Haleakal, Maui’s highest peak, and the scenic Hana Bay point.
Custom designed by Southern California Architect Craig Edwards, the singlestory, modern Kapa’au estate takes full advantage of the spectacular views from each room. It showcases 7,500 square feet under roof that includes 3,000 square feet of interior living space that seamlessly connects to 4,500 square feet of inviting breezeways, lanais, generous overhangs, and an open-bay oversized garage.
Twenty-one exposed, structural stainless-steel columns, walls of windows, stained concrete floors, locally sourced lava rock, generous use of granite, and vertical grain Douglas Fir cabinetry with exposed parallel-strand lumber opening surrounds throughout are some of the architectural detailing that sets this home apart.
The Royal palm tree-lined driveway creates a grand entry to this exceptional resort-inspired and fully fenced property that also features photovoltaic solar panels, a 40-foot custom pool with spa, and coconut, mango, and papaya trees, vegetable garden and more.
Envision a tennis court, grazing horses, putting green, extensive gardens, or whatever it takes to create your Shangri-La.
