Kauai

Newly Built Exquisite Hanalei Gem

This finely crafted brand new Hanalei Bay home is a luxurious and tasteful island retreat—ideally located next to beach and town.

Hanalei Town on the bay is a quaint village on Kauai’s North Shore where you can wander among galleries, food trucks and shops surrounded by the jewel-like beauty of the island, from waterfall and mist covered mountains to the clear blue-green waters of Hanalei Bay. From 4421 Malolo Road (MLS# 666820 Offered for sale for $24,000,000), to reach the nearby charming downtown or world class surf is only a couple minutes’ stroll. This  perfectly located Kauai home is a 4-bedroom and 4.5-bathroom residence, completed in late 2022 on a thoughtfully designed and professionally landscaped double lot that spans one-half acre.

Styled as a classic Hawaiian bungalow, the approximately 5,800-square-foot North Shore home features close-to-nature living within a finely crafted and carefully designed shelter of craftsmanship and materials, from slab marble counters to thick oak floors. From its front gate, made of beautiful tropical hardwood, to all-copper roof and turbo-charged solar and automation system—the home has luxe accoutrements tucked within a design making the most of this superb North Shore setting.

You can spend days relaxing on the lush green lawn before slipping into the pool and bubbling spa, or lounge on the extra large and airy lanai. The latter is an inviting space ideal for farm to table dining, supplied by the nearby farmers markets, positioned next to a big, elegant kitchen with a marble island and a gleaming 4-foot Wolf range. For barbecue nights, there’s a gourmet outdoor Kalamazoo grill nearby.

The kitchen flows to a spacious dining area and a living room where you can gather under vaulted ceilings while feel-good beach light pours inside—even more so when glass walls slide away, linking the room with the outdoors. In addition to the custom hardwood decks and sliding glass, there are engaging views of gardens, waterfalls or mountains from every room. And a sense of privacy from lush, abundant landscaping and tasteful exterior walls of moss and  lava rock.

Notable is the peaceful primary suite with commanding views of the verdant yard, drawing you outside for a swim no matter the hour.  A designer’s lighting system sets the grounds aglow after dark. You can rinse off at the sheltered outdoor shower garden, conveniently equipped with dual showerheads, before stepping into the primary bathroom; a sculpted hideaway with a granite soaking tub. Three more en-suite bedrooms create a family friendly cluster of sleeping spaces at one end of the house, while the other side has a sunny guest suite for visitors.

Life at 4421 Malolo Road will feed the soul, from strolls to town and the farmer’s market, two blocks away, to reviving beach afternoons and surf sessions. Though it’s always tempting to stay right at home, surrounded by serene spaces, layers of comfort and a close connection to the land—a perfect union of design and nature.
