Description
Welcome to Ala Wai Plaza, where expansive park and canal views meet the iconic Waikiki skyline and swaying palms below. This beautifully updated two-story residence offers over 1,500 SF of interior living space, highlighted by a dramatic wall of glass framing sweeping views and filling the home with natural light. Overhead skylight panels with retractable shades and smooth ceilings enhance the modern aesthetic. The split-level design delivers the comfort and flow of a home with the convenience and security of vertical living. Mountain-to-ocean breezes flow naturally, with window AC for added comfort. The contemporary kitchen features a Thermador refrigerator and cooktop with sleek Zephyr range hood. Three spacious bedrooms upstairs include two with expansive views, while the third captures lush mountain ridgelines and passing rainbows. Includes full-size washer and dryer and covered parking. Pet-friendly with 24-hour security, pool, fitness center, BBQ area, bike/surfboard storage, and car wash area. Near UH Manoa, beaches, Ala Moana Shopping Center and Waikiki.
