Architecture Wednesday: Kalua Koi Road

For $5.3M you can own one of only a few built estates on 5.95 acres of land on the best stretch of Papohaku Beach, one of Hawaii’s largest white sand beaches, in Maunaloa, Molokai, Hawaii.

The main home features an open plan living, dining and kitchen area that opens to a covered lanai and views of the beach and ocean. There are two oceanfront suites, each with a private bath, a plunge pool, expansive, Ipe hardwood decking, Fleetwood windows and doors, and custom architectural woodwork throughout. There is also a guest cottage with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and storage lofts, a pool cabana for entertaining, a 15’ x 40’ heated saltwater swimming pool and a separate 3-car garage with an attached rec room.

The property is powered by photovoltaic solar and offers 4,754 square feet of interior living space—in the two dwellings—plus nearly 5,000 square feet of lanais. A mature orchard is planted with many fruit-bearing trees including lemon, tangerine, lime, grapefruit, starfruit, mango, avocado, orange, banana, and coconut.

Unplug and slow down as you meander, meditate and reflect, or stay connected with the fiber optic high-speed internet. Watch whales in the winter and brilliant summer sunsets over the ocean in this family compound, personal retreat, equestrian property, or create your own blue zone.

Embrace the joy of solitude and discover the peace and tranquility of Molokai’s sunny west end, just a 30 min flight from Maui or Oahu. Surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty and some of the richest waters in the Pacific, Molokai’s slower pace of life is an antidote to modern hustle and the return to a more conscious way of living.
