53-532 IOLE RD Kapaau, HI 96755

This magnificent property with main house and newer two-story guest house offers luxury, privacy and a bucolic setting. It has upwards of 150 macadamia nut and other fruit trees, is nestled next to the 2,400 acre Iole Stewardship Center and is surrounded by old growth trees, ravines and other agriculture properties. Owned by a retired physician, he and his notable artist/author wife have created a special artists sanctuary. The main house greets you with an extensive covered entry and three Hawaiian-themed bas reliefs surrounding the oversized Craftsman-styled wood front door. The main house has three bedrooms and three full baths. The owners suite offers a grand bedroom, three closets and two separate vanity/water closet areas connected to a large double shower. There is direct access to an outdoor shower with bamboo walls and newer hot tub/spa. The two other bedrooms are currently repurposed; one as an office and the other as a delightfully elegant home theatre. The living room features a gas fireplace and cathedral ceiling. The kitchen has beautiful green granite stone counters, an elevated breakfast bar, gas range and all stainless steel appliances. The inside entry has recessed spaces to highlight artworks. An enclosed lanai off the back of the house has brick flooring and looks over the macadamia nut orchard to a hammock swinging between two strong trees. The main house has an attached two car garage with automatic openers and is connected by a mudroom with storage. The guest house has a first floor artist studio, ample storage closet, full bathroom, and a large wood shop with two garage doors. The upstairs has expansive guest quarters and a covered lanai with distant ocean and Haleakala Mountain views. An attached carport in addition to the garage workshop area graces the guest house. The property is on a private water system hosted by the next door Iole Stewardship Center. There is also catchment water for irrigation and a custom storage shed.
