Giving Thanks & Spotlighting Spectacular Oceanfront Estates On Hawaii’s Big Island

Living on Hawaii Island, I give thanks every day for the natural beauty, and wonderful lifestyle enjoyed here every day. But this week is special as my family and I join millions around the country to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. In that spirit, I thank you for your continued support, interest, and encouragement – you are much appreciated!

In the meantime, dreams of island living most often conjure visions of palm trees, lush tropical landscape, and direct ocean frontage. Three of my current listings epitomize those dreams come true!

Special features include a wine cellar, private studio, outdoor showers, panoramic 180-degree oceanfront views from nearly every room, and a Tesla solar system. A double gated driveway leads to a newly expanded two-car garage, while verdant green grass extends directly to the spectacular bay where you’ll enjoy some of the best snorkeling, paddling, and kayaking on Hawaii Island.

Ali‘i Drive Estate | $2.9 million | 5 BR/5 BA | 3,267 sq. ft. Interior | 40,048 sq. ft. lot | MLS #627364

Consisting of two side by side properties and located mid-way between Kailua-Kona Village and resort-like Keauhou community, this oceanfront estate is perfectly situated for both privacy and convenience. Encompassing expansive ocean frontage, the spacious one-story home is situated on the 24,493 square foot lot with the adjacent tropical botanical garden following the coastline on 15,555 square feet of land. To maximize the broad open views, the home runs horizontally across the property. Interior details include French doors throughout, allowing natural light, ocean and coastline views and cool breezes to filter into this spacious home. An interior courtyard with a lava rock water feature separates a large guest suite with an office from the main residence, while the master suite is anchored on the south side of the residence, providing privacy from the guest suites located on the north side. A covered lanai extends the length of the home, providing comfortable outdoor living spaces and a refreshing pool just outside the guest suites. An above-ground spa is located on the grassy lawn adjacent to the oceanfront low rock wall. This sale includes two tax map keys: 3-7-7-10-12 and 3-7-7-10-14.
