Starting the New Year with Two Just Sold Properties on the Big Island

The New Year is off to a strong start, and I am excited to share two recently closed sales that highlight the diversity and continued strength of the Big Island real estate market. From luxury resort living to a rare opportunity in a beloved beach community, these two properties each tell a unique story.

Just Sold: Beautiful Hokuli'a Home with Amazing Ocean Views

Listed for $4,800,000   Sold for $4,550,000

4 bed - 4.5 bath - 5,035 Living sf - 1.25 ac Land

This stunning custom estate is located within the exclusive, private gated golf club community of Hokuli‘a. Spanning more than 5,000 square feet of interior living space, with an additional 2,300+ square feet of lanais, the home captures sweeping 180-degree views of the ocean, coastline, and golf course from nearly every room.

Designed to embrace Hawai‘i’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle, the open floor plan features four bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths, fully pocketing doors in the great room, and seamless access to an expansive ocean-facing lanai. An infinity-edge lap pool, outdoor kitchen, and fire pit create the perfect setting for sunset gatherings and entertaining.

The gourmet kitchen showcases koa cabinetry with maple inlay, granite countertops, a gas cooktop, and GE Signature appliances—all overlooking breathtaking ocean views. The primary suite enjoys its own private lanai, while guest suites offer comfort and privacy with custom-built-ins.

An equity membership to the Hokuli‘a Club was included in the purchase, providing access to an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, open-air dining, spa, tennis, fitness facilities, and full-service locker rooms. Congratulations to the buyers on acquiring this exceptional island retreat.

Just Sold: Charming Puako Home with Spacious Lot

Listed for $1,600,000   Sold for $1,600,000

3 bed - 1 bath - 756 Living sf - 18,322 sqft Land

This charming Puako property offered something increasingly rare: one of the largest parcels currently available in the neighborhood at approximately 0.42 acres. Located just steps across a quiet street from the ocean, the property presented an outstanding opportunity to remodel, expand, or build a dream beach home in one of the Kohala Coast’s most sought-after communities.

The lot is enhanced by mature mango trees and backs up to conservation-zoned land, offering privacy along with beautiful views of Mauna Kea and Hualālai. Ocean access for snorkeling, swimming, and fishing is just moments away, along with the convenience of the Puako General Store, boat ramp, and beach park.

Congratulations to the buyers who recognized the long-term value and lifestyle potential of this special Puako property.
