About This Home
Expansive ocean views and spectacular sunsets provide the backdrop for this home in Kona Palisades. Two Royal Poinciana trees, currently in bloom, create a welcoming entrance. Set well back from Kaʻiminani Drive, the home enjoys a tucked-away location with a long, wide driveway offering ample parking, a 2-car garage, and plenty of room to park a boat. Distinctive architecture centers around a private atrium, with stairs leading to covered and uncovered lanais showcasing panoramic ocean and sunset views along the Kona Coast. This open-air space creates an inviting outdoor living area, naturally separating the kitchen and living areas from the private two-bedroom, two-bath wing. Positioned to capture the views, the living room overlooks the Pacific Ocean and a vibrant blooming Ruba Plumeria tree. The updated kitchen features newer appliances, monkey pod cabinetry, Taj Mahal granite countertops, and a generous dining area. The primary bedroom also overlooks miles of coastlines, complemented by an updated ensuite bathroom with monkey pod cabinetry, Taj Mahal granite countertops, and a walk-in shower. Matching cabinetry and granite countertops continue into the remodeled guest bathroom, creating a cohesive design throughout. Additional features include stained glass windows in select areas. Tropical landscaping includes two mango trees, lychee, pomegranate, avocado, several banana trees, and a variety of tropical plants, offering the opportunity to restore its full potential. Conveniently located near Honokōhau Harbor/Marina, Pālamanui Community College, Kona International Airport and shopping in Kona Town. Just a short drive to the Kohala Coast's resorts, golf, dining, entertainment, and sandy beaches. Come see for yourself what this Kona Palisades home has to offer.
