This is a significant price reduction from $36,000,000, as it was first listed back in January of 2012.

It is truly a one of a kind beachfront home in Hawaii.

This home is a custom, Kailua beachfront estate designed and developed by the well-known Kerr-Michaels Design partnership. Kerr-Michaels developed another Kailua beachfront estate sold last year at 604D N. Kalaheo, also beachfront in Kailua. Like the beachfront residence at 604D, this spectacular home features a beautiful signature spiral staircase to the second floor, and lots and lots of covered outdoor living space.

This Kailua beachfront property is resort-like, with a relaxed tropical style and incredible privacy. This estate property in Kailua consists of three parcels, totalling almost 1 1/2 acres of lush paradise. The outside features the privacy and solitude of being far off the main road and down a meandering landscaped drive. 

The main residence on this fabulous Kailua beach propert has 5 bedrooms and over 10,000 sq ft of lavish interior living and lanais. There is also a completely separate 3 bedroom guest house on the property, outside the main gate of the home. While every amenity is provided in this home, it is understated and not ostentatious. This beachfront Hawaii home is truly a haven where you can kick back, and put your feet up to relax.

This Kailua beachfront home features gorgeous, custom details, which include beautiful stonework and fabulous hardwood details and workmanship. The use of lava rock is amazing! There is a gourmet chef’s kitchen and a home theatre, as well. There is approximately 100 feet of property frontage on the sweet spot on Kailua Beach, one of the #1 rated beaches in the world. Kailua Beach is known for its soft, white sand and swimmable turquoise waters. Sports activities such as windsurfing, snorkeling, surfing, Stand-up paddling, outrigger canoeing, and kayaking are perfect here. This amazing location complements the seamless indoor/outdoor living space that makes this Oahu beachfront home simply exquisite.

The main house is set far back from the beach, as well behind and expansive lawn area. Recording artist, Beyonce has stayed here on vacation and there is a large landscaped privacy wall fronting the pool to help ensure that looky-loo neighbors cannot see into the pool area. It was rumored recently that this home was being purchased by President Obama, but that rumor is unfounded.  Certainly, it would meet his privacy requirements, and those of most any other celebrity. The entries to both the property and to the main home are gated. This home is conveniently located approximately 1 mile to the center of Kailua Town and about 30 minutes from Honolulu International Airport.

Kailua Magazine 2009 Edition - Get it Before it's Gone!

One of the things I look forward to the most with my annual subscription to Honolulu Magazine is the Kailua edition that comes out every April.

Last year, I was fortunate enough to be interviewed for the magazine’s article, “Wanted: Kailua” by Catherine Toth, on Kailua real estate. They even featured a home that I sold and my clients in the article.

This year, the Kailua section featured the history of three very different Kailua families and 13 fun new things to do in Kailua. In the article “Kailua Generations,” by Jenny Quill told stories of the Kanentake, Rodrigues-Pope and Peters families of Kailua. I found intriguing the historic photos, including a 1952 picture of Mount Olomana, and wonder what it must have been like here, in the “old days.”

In the article on new things to do in Kailua, the writer, Ashley Hamershock, featured several new restaurants, merchants and activity providers, under the headings drink, eat, move and shop. I have tried several of the new places first-hand and found them to be quite good. In particular, Bob’s Pizzeria, Crepes No Ka Oi, and Kailua Town Pub and Grill, all casual eateries, with pretty good prices. Of the merchants, I’d recommend Little Sprouts, the new Eco-boutique for kids, featuring green clothing and products, and the Sweet Paradise Chocolatier, with delicious and beautiful chocolate treats, even some handpainted tropical delights.

The last Kailua article in the magazine was my favorite, however, because it so distinctly depicts much of my experience living in Kailua. Entitled “New Year’s Day,” the writer, Rachel Ross, describes what makes Kailua so special. Stranded o New Year’s Day with a flat tire, she hangs out for a while at the historical Kalapawai Market, just Mauka of the kitesurfing part of Kailua Beach, while the owner rides his bike home to get a pump to help fix her tire. She people watches (looking for Obama), interacts, and lives, even if for a brief moment in a “small town meets cosmopolitan” experience, which I completely understood. This is this specific location where I have my coffee almost every morning, so perhaps gives part an explanation of why I am so in love with Kailua.
