About This Home

Perched above the Kona coast in the gated community of Bayview Estates, this single-level 3,049-square-foot residence blends architectural refinement with the warmth of island living. A graceful arched entry leads through a private courtyard lined with mature olive trees and into interiors framed by sweeping ocean and sunset views. The open-concept great room connects effortlessly to a chef’s kitchen appointed with a Viking commercial gas range, generous prep space, and a natural flow to the covered lanai, perfect for entertaining or quiet mornings with Kona coffee. Three ensuite bedrooms provide privacy for guests, complemented by an ocean-view office that inspires both work and creativity. The home is powered by an owned, net-metered photovoltaic solar array. It also includes an in-house sound system. Recent updates include new interior paint throughout, and Moen WiFi auto-shutoff valve for leak detection and protection. A heated pool and spa anchor the ocean-facing frontage, surrounded by landscaped grounds that frame the home’s seamless indoor-outdoor living. Bayview Estates offers gated access, private paved roads, underground utilities, and a prime location just minutes from Keauhou Bay, Keauhou Shopping Center, and the restaurants and galleries of downtown Kailua-Kona.
