Property Description
Privately located in a small coastal neighborhood, this hidden gem is a beautiful cedar, custom-built home ideal for the pleasant tropical weather in Opihikao. Just across the street from a sandy tidepool off the old Red Road, a little country road is surrounded by old growth Monkeypod trees. Welcome to Puakenikeni Place. Head up the hill into this quiet neighborhood and you will find a very attractive post-and-pier home tucked away behind colorful foliage of bamboo, palms and bromeliads. This is a 1,380 sqft, 2 bedroom, 1 bath, off-grid home with solid wood floors, stained glass windows, built-in furniture and custom cabinets made of local tropical hardwoods. Head up the stairs to an open, covered 360 sqft lanai that faces the ocean and catches tradewind breezes and the sounds of crashing waves. There is a large separate bathhouse with an antique claw-foot soaking tub, a stand-alone shower, sink and toilet. The washing machine is also in the bathhouse. The home operates on an Outback solar system with 10 solar panels, a 10,000 gallon water tank, an on-demand propane water heater, a propane stove, and a full-sized refrigerator. Enjoy the mature landscaping that surrounds you. Many producing fruit trees on this parcel include coconut, lychee, papaya, mango, liliko'i (passion fruit), soursop, cacao, rolenia, allspice and curry. If you're looking for a private and peaceful location and a solid custom-built home with the feeling of Old Hawaii, where you can walk across the street to the scenic and breathtaking ocean edge, check this property out before it's gone!
