About Manoa, Honolulu, Hawaii - Homes for Sale in Manoa Area

ABOUT THE MANOA NEIGHBORHOOD IN HONOLULU

Mānoa (/ˈmɑː.noʊ.ə/, or informally /mɑːˈnoʊ.ə/) is a valley and a residential neighborhood of Honolulu, Hawaiʻi. The neighborhood is approximately three miles east and inland from downtown Honolulu and less than a mile from Ala Moana and Waikīkī at 21°18.87916′N 157°48.4846′WCoordinates: 21°18.87916′N 157°48.4846′W.

Similar to many Honolulu neighborhoods, Mānoa consists of an entire valley, running from Mānoa Falls at the mauka (inland-most) end to King Street. The valley receives almost daily rain, even during the dry season, and is thus richly vegetated – though the valley walls are often dry. Seeing rainbows in the valley is a common occurrence, and is the source of the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa sports team names, the Rainbow Warriors (for most men’s teams) and Rainbow Wahine (for the women).

The neighborhood is composed of private houses - most of which were built before the 1960s - and low-rise condominiums. In fact, this neighborhood has some of the most beautiful historic homes in Honolulu. It is the best place to look, in Honolulu, for exquisite Victorian homes, Craftsman homes, Tudors, Dutch Colonials, and other turn of the century home styles.

Mānoa is home to the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, the flagship campus of the University of Hawaiʻi System. The University has several faculty and student residence areas in Mānoa.  Other educational institutions located in Mānoa include Mānoa Elementary School, Noelani Elementary School, Punahou School, Mid-Pacific Institute, Saint Francis School, and a handful of small, private pre-schools.

The central shopping area of Mānoa is the Mānoa Marketplace which features a farmer’s market several days of the week. More recent development has seen housing on steeper parts of the Diamond Head side valley wall.

Mānoa stream begins at the base of Mānoa Falls and runs through the valley before joining Palolo stream to form the Manoa-Palolo drainage canal, which flows into the Ala Wai Canal. Floods caused by high rainfall have plagued the residents living along Mānoa stream. Most recent was on October 30, 2004 when Mānoa stream overflowed causing millions of dollars in damages to residential homes and University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa buildings.

Mānoa is the site of the first sugarcane and coffee plantations in the Hawaiian Islands. John Wilkinson tended the first crops in 1825, brought on the ship HMS Blonde.^[1]:34 Hawaiʻi is the only state in the United States that produces coffee commercially. For more history see coffee production in Hawaii.

Mānoa means thick, solid, vast, depth or thickness in the Hawaiian language.^[2] There is another valley named Mānoa on the north shore of Kauaʻi.

There are many legends associated with Manoa, one very well known legend is the story of Kahalaopuna. Kahalaopuna was born to Kahaukani and Kauakuahine. Kahaukani is the wind of Manoa and Kauakuahine is the rain of Manoa. Kakaukani and Kauakuahine were brother and sister, both born to Akaaka (the projecting spur of the Manoa mountain range) and Nalehuaakaaka (the lehua on the brow of the Manoa ridge). ^[3]

Oahu Real Estate | Sold Homes in Kaimuki, Honolulu

The fourth quarter of 2014 was busy for Home Shoppe Hawaii and two of the homes we sold were in the Kaimuki neighborhood of Honolulu.

The first was a CPR home, built in 1939 and located at 1010A 8th Ave in Kaimuki, Honolulu. This was a gracious old plantation-style home with a daylight basement, with a total of 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. This Honolulu home was in need of some upgrades, but was otherwise solid and presented a good opportunity for extra income, since the basement featured a separate entrance, as well as a wet bar. This home was listed by Yvonne Jaramillo Ahearn (B), and sold for $810,000 FS (with multiple offers) on 12/14/14.

The second Kaimuki home was located just down the street from the first at 1009 2nd Ave in Kaimuki, Honolulu. This was a cute old 1934 cottage with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. This home also was in need of a rehab, but had very little structural damage for a home of its age. The Buyers of this home were represented by Yvonne Jaramillo Ahearn (B). This home was listed for $730,000 FS and sold for $680,000 FS on 11/21/14.

If you would like more information about either of these homes in Kaimuki or if you would like to purchase or sell any home in Honolulu, please don’t hesitate to contact Home Shoppe Hawaii at 808-721-8088.

Honolulu Real Estate | Kapahulu Home with Ocean Views SOLD: $706,500 FS

Home Shoppe Hawaii is pleased to have recently helped our Buyers purchase a Honolulu Home at 3518 McCorriston Street in the Kapahulu neighborhood of Diamond Head.  This was a private sale of an unlisted Honolulu property that Home Shoppe Hawaii arranged on behalf of our clients. Because this Kapahulu home was not listed, Home Shoppe Hawaii managed both sides of the transaction, though we represented only the Buyers on the transaction. Having no listing agent resulted in significant savings to my Buyers in their purchase.  It also enabled my Buyers to purchase this home without having outside competition. Due to the low inventory we are experiencing on Oahu, most single family properties in the Diamond Head area of Honolulu receive multiple offers.

This Kapahulu home, in the Diamond Head region of Honolulu, was built in the 1930s and had some of the traditional details of homes of this period. Unfortunately, there had been a lot of deferred maintenance and the home was in average to fair condition. The location is great, however, just a short walk to Monsarrat Ave and Kapiolani Park, as well as Waikiki Beach. The second story of this home featured ocean and Diamond Head views, which was exactly what my clients desired.

Purchasing homes in a Sellers’ market requires unique strategies to help Buyers find the home of their dreams. Home Shoppe Hawaii thinks outside of the box to help secure the home you want and frequently has access to unlisted homes. Contact Home Shoppe Hawaii at 808-721-8088 to hear how we can help you find a great Honolulu home.
