Welcome to a rare opportunity in coveted Kuulei Tract, where the best of Kailua living comes together on an expansive 12,000+ square foot lot just a short walk from Kailua Beach. Thoughtfully rebuilt in 2004, this single-level residence offers 3,054 square feet of comfortable, open living designed around Hawaii’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle. At the heart of the home is a modern chef’s kitchen that opens seamlessly to generous living and entertaining spaces. Step outside and the property becomes a private tropical retreat. Lush landscaping surrounds a solar-heated pool and spa, complemented by a tranquil waterfall and covered outdoor living areas that invite year-round entertaining. Whether hosting a gathering after a day at the beach, enjoying dinner outdoors, or simply relaxing poolside, the home was designed to make the most of Kailua’s lifestyle. Features include 46 owned (net metered) photovoltaic panels, solar pool heating (separate from PV system), and propane gas for cooking and heating the spa. The large lot provides a sense of space and privacy that is increasingly difficult to find this close to Kailua Beach.

Use two quotes from the same lender: without points and with points. Points do not buy a fixed rate reduction. This models a permanent buydown, not a temporary 2-1 subsidy.

Oʻahu Home Search and The Ulu Team do not provide a Loan Estimate, rate lock, credit decision, or guarantee of payment through this tool. Rates are national benchmarks or your inputs, not APRs or personalized quotes. Actual rates, points, loan limits, fees and eligibility depend on your lender, credit, income, occupancy, entitlement, property and appraisal.

Models fixed-rate purchase financing for a one-unit home. FHA rules shown are standard forward-loan rules, not Hawaiian Home Lands or other special programs. VA/FHA selection does not establish eligibility. Taxes, insurance, HOA fees, ground rent and assessments may change; omitted or zero costs are excluded. FHA MIP is a year-one estimate and can change; conventional PMI cancellation is subject to lender and servicing rules. Upfront cash is a subtotal, not a closing disclosure. Verify all terms, costs, coverage and credits with a licensed lender, insurer and escrow professional before making a financial decision.
