Looking for a home with a stellar view, stylish interior, and a great indoor/outdoor layout? This Keauhou Estates home (MLS# 246326) should be at the top of your list. It’s the home most of my buyers describe when I ask what they are looking for.
As you walk through the courtyard entry and into the great room, straight ahead is a panoramic view over the lanai edged with an infinity pool. The master suite is to one side with panoramic views and guest suites to the other for great separation of space.
This past year, the majority of the sales activity in Keauhou Estates has been clearing out short sales, REO/bank foreclosures, and older homes in need of updating. Another home, built in 2005, sold for $1.3 million and was the highest priced sale in the past year. It was larger, but had two stories, which is not what most buyers are looking for these days. All of the other homes that sold were older and most were in need of updating.
For turnkey perfect, this home is the answer. It was a surprise. Usually, homes on the mauka (mountain) side of the street feel exposed and less private. This one doesn’t. There’s also something about this home that photos don’t capture. It flows well. I wasn’t the only one pleasantly surprised. Agent after agent walked in on a recent broker’s open house saying, “this is a good one.” It is simply designed well.
Keauhou Estates has always been a great location, just minutes from golf, the ocean, beaches, shopping, and restaurants, and it just got better. Sam Choy, one of Hawaii’s most famous chefs, just opened his namesake restaurant right outside the gates of Keauhou Estates. With one of the best views in Kona, if not the island, Sam Choy’s is already a local and visitor favorite; yet another reason to consider Keauhou Estates for your Hawaii home.
