A message from the owner:
Fabulous
views, privacy and quiet were foremost for us in choosing where to
build our
dream home in Hawaii.
We looked for several years before finding this special Maui
hilltop location on the side of the volcano. The main house is
overlooks a
600’ deep gulch and the view spans 180 unobstructed
degrees
encompassing the ocean to the north, a big slice of the island of
Molokai, the
full west Maui mountains, Maui’s central valley, and then a sliver of
ocean to
the south. The hilltop setting also offers a magnificent eastward view
of Maui’s
10,023 ft. volcano, Haleakala. The guest cottage is nestled into a
private setting, with no close neighbors, plenty of privacy and an
oceanview to the east, and Healeakala view to the side. All this
giant-scaled ocean/mountain nature
lends a magical feel to the place.
We aspired not to live in a
tailored gated community but rather to a feeling of informality in a
serene, natural more rural setting. It was also important to us
to be
free as possible from the noise arising from airports, close neighbors
and road
traffic. Our 2 � acres feels secluded, and we hear the birds and
the breeze
rather than road noise.
We chose Maui’s north shore because our family is very
active in
sporting activities, and we manage to surf, windsurf,
kite board, boogie board, snorkel, stand-up paddle, fish, run
(in the
pineapple fields), and jetski. Our location is reasonably central
so that trips to Makawao and to the top of Haleakala volcano, to Hana,
to
Makena or to Lahaina are all easy.
Our dream
home is everything we had hoped.
