The essence of oceanfront living is all found here: the sights, sounds, and smells of the sea permeate every part of this Puako beachfront estate. The reef out front is arguably the best Puako has to offer, with arches and turtle cleaning stations, there is a reason the boats come and go all day long. Snorkeling was never easier, leave from your front yard and become friends with your fish neighbors. During whale season, sit on your lanai and enjoy the show as they swim by your house. Many a Puako resident can attest to hearing them at night, slapping and singing to the tune of the moon. The home itself is grand and yet humble, with soaring ceilings, Ohia floors, but yet maintains a Hawaiian beach cottage feel. With three bedrooms and an office in the main house, there is room for everyone. The upstairs mother-in-law matches the feel of the main house for extended family. Hawaiian woods are featured throughout, with famous Raiatea Woodworks to thank for the Koa built-ins and custom furniture. A large grassy yard in the front and back beckons for lazy afternoon games and relaxation. The one-car garage intentionally left the second bay for toys: kayaks, surfboards, and dive gear can live here. A true ocean lover's delight, Puako at its finest is on display at this property. With the resorts minutes away, as well as some of Big Island's best beaches, this property offers a casual beach lifestyle without all the rules. Rediscover what it means to live by the sea, and be mesmerized by the underwater world that awaits you.
