Step into a home that tells a story of revival. Once in disrepair, this property has been meticulously restored by trained restoration specialists, transforming it into a masterpiece that blends modern comforts with timeless charm.

Every detail of the restoration speaks to the passion poured into this home:

Main Home: The roof was restored and painted, with new gutters. The interior/exterior have been freshly painted. They created a primary suite by combining two bedrooms and restoring the original fur floors.
Bathrooms: Completely reimagined with new plumbing and art deco tiles that add a touch of elegance.
Kitchen: Upgraded with new flooring, new sink and hardware, updated plumbing, and a new refrigerator.
Sunroom: A tranquil space with new floors, walls, windows, and doors, perfect for relaxing or repurposing as a bedroom.
Living Room: Reinforced walls and a custom-built bookshelf adds character and functionality.
Laundry Room: Thoughtfully enclosed with new walls, flooring, a new door, and washer and dryer.
Garage/Workshop: Completely rebuilt (24' x 20') on a concrete foundation, with new roofing, gutters, and electrical. This could be your new workshop or office.
Two Lanais: Revitalized with new steps, railings, and roofs, creating inviting spaces to enjoy the outdoors.

The outside is a masterpiece! Fully fenced and framed by a restored rock wall, it features two gated entrances for convenience—one on 20th Ave and one on Railroad Ave. The grounds have been cleared and landscaped with a stunning array of endemic flora, including ginger, hibiscus, citrus trees, breadfruit, gardenias, puakinikini, anthuriums, bougainvillea, and heliconia. The backyard bursts with color, offering a serene escape.

This home’s story is one of dreams brought to life. From its pine-slatted wood ceilings to its lush surroundings, every inch of this property invites you to imagine your future here.
