Property Description

Feel worlds away at this well manicured 4-acre off-grid botanical retreat, thoughtfully created over a decade with a passion for rare tropical plants. Bordered on one side by a seasonal stream and waterfall overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the property offers exceptional privacy, beautiful landscaping, and a tranquil connection to nature. Just 5 minutes mauka from the highway at a perfect 1200, this park like setting was creatively designed to inspire private and peaceful living. The estate features multiple detached structures surrounded by handcrafted trails, bridges, rock walls, a grotto, and numerous seating areas woven throughout. The main residence showcases exceptional craftsmanship with cedar and clear redwood construction, soaring open-beam ceilings, skylights, and hardwood finishes including ipe, silver oak and robusta. An open living and dining area flows seamlessly to a spacious covered lanai with ocean views. The chefs kitchen features custom sapele cabinetry, deep stainless steel double sink, and a 6-burner Viking stove. Bedrooms are positioned on opposite wings for privacy, separated by two full baths and a central laundry/utility room. Multiple access points and expansive outdoor living spaces enhance the home's flow and openness. A lower deck connects the home to a private, cozy sleeping bungalow which is portable. A detached 600+ sq. ft. studio serves as a versatile creative space, currently used as a library, music studio, art studio, and guest retreat. Features include open-beam ceilings, skylight and a fireplace for climate control. Another 380 sq. ft. detached studio is ideal for fitness or as a future guest quarters. Nearby, the power shed houses a sustainable off-grid system with 16 owned PV panels, updated Blue Ion batteries, and a new backup generator, along with small workshop and covered storage. Enjoy a new on-demand water heater in-line to the solar water heater and Starlink for internet! Be unplugged but never disconnected ; )
