Healthiest State Rankings: Hawaii Tops 2013 List

Healthiest State Rankings: Hawaii Tops 2013 List

...the second year in a row, I might add. You can read the specifics right here:  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/12/11/healthiest-state-rankings_n_4412574.html

Just imagine having your own fruit trees - all varieties of tropical fruits - on your own 2 acres set on the edge of a Hawaiian rainforest, complete with panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and the West Maui Mountains.  

You don't have to imagine that. You can actually live that. Oh, and for the same price as what the typical New Yorker pays for a 2-room apartment.

130 Kuloli Place in rural Haiku, Maui, Hawaii offers lilikoi, avocado, tangelo, banana, grapefruit, papaya, mango and farm-fresh eggs from your own chicken coop. The photos that accompany this article? They're directly from the property. They're not packaged photos bought from an online photo company.

The morning smoothies. The urge to just pick an avocado off the tree, peel it, and eat it while standing in a soft shower. Papaya and mango to make exotic salsas anytime you want. A slice of cold banana cream pie for a midnight snack. This is the life.

No wonder Hawaii tops the list of healthiest state rankings. We've got the healthy stuff right outside the door.

"Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others." -Jonathan Swift

Situated at the end of a rarely traveled road and almost deceptively hidden from Maui's famed Road to Hana lie 2.49 ridge top acres. 

Bordering the edge of the Ko'olau Forest Reserve, you'll never have to worry about further development along your very private road. 

Vision, though. That's the point of this property. There are already 2 permitted structures on the site - one 2000+ sf structure, and the smaller one pictured above.  The smaller one  will make lovers of the increasingly popular tiny house movement want to squeal with delight. The potential is endless.

There's plenty of room to build your dream home overlooking the tropical gulch and the mighty Pacific. The land itself can bear just about any kind of tropical fruit and vegetable you'd care to plant.

You owe it to yourself to visit the site and employ a bit of vision. What do you see?

Mark Antony and Cleopatra

Mark Antony and Cleopatra. Were they an historic fact or a Shakeapearean invention? No matter the factual nature, they lived lives of opulence.

Crafted stonework and ironwork were undoubtedly part of their lives. Plush towels and silks surely played their respective roles as well. Imagine the exotic fruits awaiting their whim beside a bath like this.

Ocean views and tropical rain forests? Hmm....maybe not so much.

That's okay. You can have your own Cleopatra moment in the master bath at 130 Kuloli Place in Haiku, Maui - complete with an abundance of every tropical fruit you can imagine. If that ever starts to bore you, the outdoor bathing options just might rejuvenate your love of the bath.

Which movie star's house is at the end of this Maui driveway?

Which movie star's house is at the end of this Maui driveway?

Well, honestly, there's no movie star at the end of this drive. It sure looks private and exotic enough for a movie star, though, doesn't it? If privacy is your thing, this is your place. 

Imagine just for a minute this drive being your own home stretch, the place where you exhale, knowing that your property sits alone at the end of the road, and no development will ever take place behind you.

Pretty dramatic, huh?

61 S. Honokala Drive is just off Maui's famed Road to Hana, almost deceivingly hidden from the main road. Here's proof: http://tinyurl.com/k3v4tqb

Featuring 2.49 ridge top tropical acres adjacent to the protected Ko'olau Forest Reserve, this property has sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean and the surrounding landscape down below. There are two permitted structures with plenty of room left over to build your dream home.

The perfect privacy. The perfect view. For a lifetime.

Give me a call and I'll be happy to take you for a hike around the property.

Decisions, Decisions...

Mornings are different around here. We have to make some pretty tough decisions.

Crawl out of bed, get the coffee started, walk out onto the main lanai to breathe in a little bit of the morning's light showers while checking out how many bananas and avocados are ready to be picked.

Check out the almost-daily rainbow. More or less awake now.

Scratch the head and yawn. Decision time.

Shower indoors or outdoors today?

Decisions, decisions...

Confessions of a Maui Oceanfront Home - Volume V

When last I left you, I signed off by breathing a sigh of relief that my search for a new owner was over, and I was in escrow. 

At that time, 22,000 people had seen me on Facebook. Even though I had revealed my escrow status, that viewership is up to 28,000 people. I blush.

With the bidding war over, I feel like a star is being born. My grounds are abuzz with surveyors, appraisers, and inspectors of all kinds. Although I'll miss the owners I've known all my life, I'm excited about the new ones. They too are artists. 

I'm home again.

Until next time,

I’ve heard it more times than I can remember. If there was ever a clear-cut definition of the phrase, I’m it. 

If you click on the Google maps link, you’ll see why. http://goo.gl/maps/tiRup  It doesn’t get much more grand than Hawai’i. Maui, specifically.

Just off the famed Road to Hana of 629 curves and 59 bridges within a 52 mile span, I’m the 2.49 acres at the end of a lonely road overlooking a tropical gulch. That single gulch works its way down from Maui’s dormant volcano, Mount Haleakala, toward the Pacific Ocean, just putting the icing on the view. I back up to the Ko’olau Forest Reserve, meaning that there’ll never be any development behind me.

Although the lifestyle I provide is priceless, I do have a real-world price. $695,000.
