Description
639 feet of ocean frontage with 6.72 acres of flat and gently sloping oceanfront pastures located in Kipahulu, Maui's closest point to The Big Island. The property is surrounded by open fields, unobstructed ocean views, the sound of whales breaching and magnificent rainbows. The property is fenced and has been consistently used for grazing horses. Directly offshore exists one of the deepest parts of the Pacific Ocean that is a superhighway for migrating whales. Across the channel on The Big Island, the two tallest volcanoes in the world, Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa, rise from the ocean. In the 1830-40's, whalers traversed the channel and planted seeds on this property for Norfolk Pines that grew straight and tall, used to replace broken masts. Those trees remain where they were planted almost 200 years ago. Other plantings include many coconuts, mangos, bananas, mature Royal and Fantail palms, and myriad tropical flowers. The existing house is a Rancher's home. The spacious Master Bedroom encompasses the entire second floor, and has vaulted ceilings, a deck overlooking the ocean and six large windows allowing the sounds of waves and warm tropical breezes to relax you to sleep. The Kitchen/Dining Room, Bunk Room, Laundry and Full Bath complete the first floor. Attached is an oversized 3-car garage with industrial garage doors and 22' ceilings. It’s fully equipped for a self-sustaining lifestyle with solar electricity, water catchment into a 38,000 tank, and LP for hot water and stove. At the highest point of the property, there’s a level building site with commanding views of volcanoes and sunsets over the Pacific. It is here where you can build your dream home. Kipahulu is unparalleled for its mild climate, lush vegetation, streams, and waterfalls. It’s truly one of Hawaii’s last unspoiled places.
