This is a beautiful, completely remodeled Kailua home with 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. It is on an large, 8,402 sq ft cul-de-sac lot, with many neighbors that front Enchanted Lake. The total living space under roof is 1,926 sq ft, which includes a huge covered lanai, front porch and 3rd full bathroom.

This Kailua home was recently repainted and the roof has a GACO reflective and protective coating. Hurricane ties and many new framing members have enhanced the structure of this home beyond its orignal construction.

As you enter through the quartzite-tiled entry area, the spacious living room is open to both a dining area and a large kitchen.

Windowed doors open to the beautiful side yard from the living room. There are stranded bamboo floors throughout. The living room window has a lovely view of Mt. Olomana.

The gourmet kitchen has been fully remodeled with beautiful African Mahogany cabinetry and lazy Susan and Magic Corner to make the most of the space.

And there’s lots of storage!!

The interior floor plan is open and flows well. Entertaining groups is easy and comfortable in this home. This home is modernized, yet retains its charming mid-century feel and some of its original detail.

The small dining area off the kitchen features sliding doors to a huge, almost 500 sq ft lanai.  The lanai is tiled with quartzite, and has a wet bar with solid wood cabinets and a granite top. The 3rd full bathroom, with laundry, in the home is also easily accessible from the lanai and the lanai can be entered through the carport area, as well.

There is plenty of room for recreation in this 8,402 sq ft yard. The yard is beautifully landscaped with a grassy lawn and sprinklers, and has banana and mango trees, as well as coconut palms. The garden areas span every side of the home and can be accessed from any one of the several sets of windowed doors in this open and airy Kailua home.

The Master Bedroom has two closets and windowed doors to the backyard. There is an en-suite Master Bathroom to the right side of the above photo.

The Master Bathroom is beautifully tiled in travertine, including the walk-in shower (to the right above and shown in photo below). It has wood cabinetry, granite counters, oil-rubbed bronze finish faucets, and a custom, built-in storage cabinet. Rather than 2 sinks, the owner opted to have more counter space for her makeup station, which has an attached, lighted makeup mirror, seen on the left side of this photo.

Besides the Master, the home has three other good-sized bedrooms. All have bamboo floors, ceiling fans, and white louvered closet doors. One bedroom has a window A/C unit. All look onto the lovely yard areas.

There is also a beautifully remodeled hall bathroom in this Kailua home, with Cararra Marble countertops and tub surround, and azure glass tile accents. The floor is vintage-styled hex tiles, and the cabinets and board and batten wainscotting are in white.

Kailua Real Estate | Keolu Hills Remodeled Home SOLD $805K FS

Keolu Hills is a great neighborhood in Kailua, near Enchanted Lake. Homes in the area range from plantation-style cottages to executive homes with sweeping views of the ocean and/or Enchanted Lake.

Home Shoppe Hawaii recently helped find and closed on a Keolu Hills Kailua home for some of our delightful VA buyers. This prime piece of Keolu Hills Kailua real estate was a 4/3 home, with 3/2 in the main part of the house and 1/1 as a mother-in-law suite, that could be used for guests or even as a rental. This charming Kailua home for sale was fully remodeled and move-in ready. The kitchen had stainless steel applicances and granite countertops. The entire home had new flooring and all bathrooms were new. All remodels and additions were permitted. The spacious master suite featured two sinks and a shower-tub combo.  The back yard had mature fruit trees and new grass with sprinklers and the home was freshing painted.

Great homes at this price point, particularly those than meet VA Loan requirements, can be hard to find in Kailua. My clients were able to secure this one by acting quickly when the Kailua home fell out of escrow with another buyer. Buying a home in Kailua often requires dilligence and unique buying and offering strategies, given the low inventory and high demand for Kailua real estate that we are currently experiencing.

Please contact me at 808-721-8088 if you would like to hear my unique strategies for helping buyers find a Kailua home.
