Island Dream Home Alert: Ocean Views, Solar Power and A/C.
Have you ever been browsing real estate listings and thought, Wait… didn’t that house sell recently? Am I losing my mind?
Sometimes it’s just a case of homes looking similar. Other times… nope, you’re not imagining things. That’s what I like to call “life life-ing you.” Circumstances shift, and the home that was supposed to be your forever home turns into your “well, that didn’t go as planned” home.
Here in Hawai’i, this happens more often than you might think. Island life can be wonderfully magical — but also surprisingly transient. You make friends, jobs change, people move away, or you realize that living in the middle of the Pacific isn’t quite the fit you thought it would be. Sometimes the mainland commute you thought you could manage turns into a nothing short of a big inconvenience.
That’s exactly the case with the seller of my newest listing at 68-1846 Pili Kai Place in Waikoloa. Moving from the mainland was an exciting new chapter for him. Fast forward just 14 months — he still loves the house, the neighborhood, and island living — but work? Not working the way he’d hoped. Life called for a change.
Now for the good news — this home is an absolute gem.
📍 Great Location — Tucked away on a peaceful cul-de-sac.
✨ Recently Remodeled — Fresh, stylish updates that make the home move-in ready.
☀ Paid-for Photovoltaic System with Net Metering — Lower electric bills? Yes please !
❄ Split AC — Keep cool and comfortable year-round.
🛋 High-End Furnishings — Tastefully chosen and perfect for island living.
🌺 Beautiful Outdoor Living Space with an Ocean View — Perfect for morning coffee, evening sunsets or stargazing.
📦 Abundant Covered Storage Under the Home — Plenty of space for tools, beach gear, or hobby supplies.
🌱 Gardener’s Paradise — Already lush with tropical abundance, plus room to grow your own fruits, veggies, and flowers.
For me, helping the seller is bittersweet. I was part of the adventure when he bought this home, and it’s impossible not to get invested in someone else’s dream. But here’s the silver lining — I adore this home, and I know its next owner is out there.
Could it be you?
If you’d like to see it in person, reach out to me directly. Or, if you’re already working with an agent, have them add it to your showing list. You might just fall in love with your own “forever home”… or at least one that will make the next chapter of your story unforgettable.
