Description

Exceptional 3-acre homesite located on a premier end lot at the northern edge of Kaupulehu Development (KD), offering breathtaking 360-degree views of the Pacific Ocean, Maui, and Kohala, Mauna Kea, and Hualālai Mountains. Few properties capture both dramatic sunrise vistas and year-round sunset views, providing an ever-changing panorama from dawn to dusk. Overlooking a 214-acre Cultural Reserve rich in Hawaiian history, this rare offering enjoys forever-protected ocean vistas, exceptional privacy, and a remarkable sense of place. The expansive homesite provides an extraordinary setting for creating a world-class estate in one of the Big Island's most exclusive coastal communities. Conceptual plans have been created by Aina Ola for an approximately 10,655 square foot luxury residence with 16,478 under roof square feet including the main house, guest suites, lanai, garage and amenities, providing a valuable head start while illustrating the exceptional scale and potential of the property. Ownership includes access to the Kaupulehu Beach Club, featuring a two-tiered swimming pool, expansive event lawn, and a pathway to a secluded black sand beach. Kaupulehu is a gated, access-controlled community with 24-hour security along the coveted Kona Coast. By invitation only, owners may apply for membership to the exclusive Kukio Golf & Beach Club, offering world-class amenities including Tom Fazio-designed golf courses, private clubhouses, dining, ocean pursuits, wellness facilities, and an extensive sports complex. A rare opportunity to build a legacy estate with unmatched views, privacy, and access to some of Hawaiʻi's finest amenities.
