Description
The Pacific coastline, stunning blue ocean, and sunrise over the ridge come alive from this tranquil home in the exclusive guarded community of Kahala Kua. The first of four unique architecturally designed CPR residences on a quiet cul-de-sac. The expansive spatial quality is enhanced by generous lanais and walls of panel windows that provides soft natural lighting and lovely views from most rooms. Low maintenance yard and the robust stucco exterior was freshly painted. The interior is accented by soaring glass block windows in stair landings and special features including separate laundry room, split AC, and walk-in closet. Two contractor inspections for restoration in all the right places. Priced under assessment for quick closing. Property tax will be lower for owner occupant.
