Kahala home with an ocean view

A fabulous ocean view property in Kahala for$2,395,000

If you are familiar with a place over an extended period of time you discover that certain spots are very unique. I have clients who have lived in Hawaii for many years and they grow to truly love certain spots. Some wait for years for a particular home on a street or in a small section of a neighborhood. I constantly have my eye out for properties on certain streets or with a certain view. There are few locations that truly stand out.
One such spot is a a small bluff at one side of Kahala. This is one of the extremely few spots in which to get an ocean view. Yes, one would think that with a flat neighborhood like Kahala that an ocean view would hardly be possible, but it’s true. There are a few homes along Elepaio that have ocean views. Sitting on top of this coral out cropping, these few homes have a view of the ocean that is only a few blocks away.

Kahala neighborhood

Kahala is a popular neighborhood located in the Diamond Head district of Oahu. The close proximity to shopping, the large mostly elegant homes are eye catching. The larger lot sizes are very desirable. Kahala is both quiet and centrally located to Honolulu. Plus people like being around this level of affluence. Kahala Avenue Homes has some of the most expensive homes on Oahu.

676 Elepaio Street

This Kahala home at 676 Elepaio Street was built in 1957 and has been upgraded over the years. It still retains however that mid century character with the high open beam ceiling and the raw wood structure. The homes comes with large covered lanai space to enjoy the wonderfully cooling trade winds. The structure makes it such a cool and comfortable home. Upgrades have been tastefully done and include more modern conveniences. The home also comes with wood floors. This is an exceptional oasis in Kahala. In my opinion it is well priced at $2.3965 million
