Set in the most sought-after upcountry neighborhood in the heart of Waimea, this recently remodeled, three-bedroom home captures the essence of classic Hawaiian plantation architecture with modern luxury. The rich, red board & batten exterior with crisp white trim and arched entryway creates a WOW first impression, while the two lanais invite you to relax, take in the cool mountain air, and the sounds of birds like the Kalij Pheasant, which are unique to Nob Hill.
Thoughtfully designed details such as the glass-inset front and back doors, white wood railings, and hanging flower baskets, reflect the warmth and craftsmanship typical of Waimea's most charming cottages. The interior reflects the highest quality, with gleaming oak hardwood floors throughout, and abundant natural light from windows and skylights. The open concept of the great room provides garden views and excellent cross ventilation. The area centers around a charming potbelly stove, both a design feature and a cozy focal point for cool Waimea evenings, or enjoy a movie in bed with the second, wood-burning fireplace!
The kitchen is the heart of this home, intended for sharing time with others. Its open-flame Bosch cooktop lives in the center of the kitchen, adjacent to bar-style seating. Over the sink, you'll find an enchanting window garden space for herbs and flowers, with an occasional view of Mauna Kea's peak. A custom handcrafted mini-bar and hotel-style custom closets add to the home's fresh appeal. Lush, mature landscaping surrounds the home with vibrant white and purple agapanthus, iris, tropical succulents, fruit trees, and native plantings that complement the property's natural beauty and privacy.
Convenient access to the weekly farmers markets, fine dining, top private schools (Parker and HPA), medical offices, and small-town charm, but only 15 minutes to the best beaches...this is the ideal blend of upcountry serenity and island lifestyle.
