New Listing – Big Island Pod-Style Home with Salt Water Pool in Makalani Subdivision

Just released yesterday at a very aggressive price, this is a custom home (built in 2006) in a private and gated community of just 10 lots (MLS# 256935). Located just above Keauhou, the subdivision is 5 to 10 minutes away from shopping, theaters, restaurant, farmer’s market, golfing, and beaches…yet a world apart.

This 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath with den home is situated on one acre boasting a salt water pool with spa. Located at the front of the home to take advantage of the views, the pool and large lanai calls for entertaining or just family get-togethers.

Beautifully Built Home with Custom Features

The gate is made of Monkey Pod from a tree on the property that was cut down during construction. The gate opens to a Zen-like garden sitting area with a soothing fountain and koi pond.

The Great Room boasts Monkey Pod flooring from the same tree as the custom gate. Its soaring ceiling is trimmed with Koa, a tropical hardwood. Walking through the back door leads you to the outdoor shower (so popular in Hawaii).

Popular Hawaii Floor Plan

This is a pod-style home also popular in Hawaii. Another door in the hallway with the half bath leads to the second bedroom suite. This suite offers its own private sitting area in the Zen-like gardens enjoying the sounds of the fountain while feeding the koi.

The kitchen opens to the great room so the chef doesn’t miss a thing. The kitchen with island has granite counter tops and mahogany cabinets, and around the corner is a half bath plus the laundry room.

There is plenty of room for dining adjacent to the kitchen. As you face the kitchen, the master bedroom suite plus den are to your left. The room pictured below is currently used as a den/office, but could be used as a formal dining room. The french doors lead to the master suite.

Spacious Master Suite

Did I mention sliding pocket doors? Both the great room and the master bedroom offer this feature – such a nice way to bring the outside in.
