About This Home
Nestled among the lush canopies of Dowsett, next to the tumbling Nu'uanu Stream, this serene parcel has APPROVED architectural plans, PERMITTED TO BUILD — No DPP wait. Designed by award-winning local architect Jim Schmit, known for tropical modernism and island sensibility, this contemporary residence is designed to live among the trees and belong to this coveted Hawaii neighborhood.
