Unique Loft-Like, View Home in Kailua - New Construction~!

There is a new luxury listing in Kailua that I just love! Not only for its great features, but because the price is right at $1,198,000. I came across it by almost accident, in the course of researching concrete countertops, of all things. The home is owned by General Contractor and artist, John Foley, also the founder of Concreations, a company that specializes in decorative concrete for the home - acid stained floors and custom concrete countertops.

This luxury home in Kailua is quite special, not only for its liberal use of custom concrete in almost every room of the house, but for its gorgeous ocean views. Perched high on a hilltop in the Keolu Hills area of Kailua, this home has expansive views of Kailua Bay from every lanai, and there are several of those across two levels. The downstairs of the home has 10 foot ceilings and the living room lanai doors open completely, giving the home an “inside is out” feeling of spaciousness. The downstairs living area is large and inviting with sea green acid stained floors and plenty of windows. There is a large bedroom and bath on this ground floor level, as well. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and concrete counters inlaid with sea shells and turquoise.

Upstairs, you will find 9 foot ceilings, bamboo floors and another living area large enough for a living room suite and a pool table. The master suite features views, a large lanai, and large soaking tub with separate shower, and a walk-in closet. There are two additional smaller bedrooms, for a total of 4. There are also 4 total bathrooms, which are all quite large and which features gorgeous custom concrete countertops created by the owner.

For an additional suprise, the home has a guest suite complete with wetbar/kitchen facilities. This “recreation area,” which could be compared to a small 1 bedroom apartment, even has its own separate entrance and a separate lanai with those same killer ocean views. And did I mention the home is situated perfectly to take advantage of the tradewinds, keeping things cool.  The home has custom doors and cabinetry and a suspended wire railed staircase reminiscent of a San Francisco loft home, as well as bright, modern, yet still decidedly tropical, choices in paint colors.

If you are an unrepresented buyer interested in this fine home and would like to see it, please don’t hestitate to call me at 808-721-8088. Listing courtesy of CB Pacific Properties.
