Almost 2 months ago I wrote about the Waikiki Skyliner, a Mid-Century condo building that remains true to its original form. I spoke of its lava and intricate concrete block façade, and its machine age inspired cut out oval fencing. As I said then, and still believe, “this is a building for those of us who relish style…”
Waikiki Skyliner Condo #1207 Now Available
A new condo is now being offered at the Waikiki Skyliner, and I think you may find it true to form as well. Listed at $220,000, unit #1207, a one bedroom, one bath condo is the least expensive unit in that building currently on the MLS (MLS# 1211104). It has also been updated, but definitely with the eye of a Mid-Century enthusiast living in the 21st century.
Modern and Updated Features
White ceramic flooring extends out from the living area onto the lanai, creating a unifying, cohesive look, which also has the added benefit of increasing the overall square footage if only by ‘feel’.
Step out onto that lanai, and the Ko’olau Mountains, swathed in clouds, stretch away into the horizon. It is a hallmark of pure Mid-Century design to use a vista or other such nature-scape to enhance the dwelling, rather than rely on artifice.
New, white cabinets, and an unusual and beautiful color choice of granite for the countertops along with the wise choice of white appliances create a modern, updated space that is definitely an homage to the unit’s Mid-Century roots.
So if you’re looking to showcase that Eames furniture you’ve been collecting, or simply want an elegant-in-its-simplicity space to serve as a refuge from today’s hectic life, look no further than unit #1207 at the Waikiki Skyliner.
