Set on an elevated, gently sloping 8,024 sq ft lot, the property enjoys cooling trade winds, mountain views, and a spacious grassy yard—ideal for gardening, pets, and relaxed outdoor living. The home sits in what locals often call the “Center of the Pearl,” nestled between the lush interior slopes of the Mount Waiʻaleʻale region to the west, one of the wettest places on Earth and the source of Kauaʻi’s rivers and waterfalls, and the iconic Nounou (Sleeping Giant) Range to the east, known for its legendary ridgeline and panoramic coastal views. Inside, 1,256 sq ft of light-filled living space features an open layout with vaulted ceilings and a skylight. The updated kitchen and bathrooms include quartz countertops and modern finishes, while new flooring and window blinds throughout create a clean, move-in-ready feel. A full appliance package, refrigerator, range, dishwasher, microwave hood, and washer/dryer, adds everyday convenience. Built with CMU/hollow-tile and wood frame construction, the home is well suited to Hawaiʻi’s climate. An oversized attached two-car garage provides excellent storage for vehicles, boards, tools, and beach gear, plus additional driveway parking. Just minutes away are the scenic Sleeping Giant (Nounou) Trails, the peaceful Kadavul Hindu Temple, and the lush walking paths of the Wailua River State Park Arboretum. Located in the Kauai Gardens Subdivision, you’re also close to Kapaa town, beaches, schools, shopping, dining, golf, and medical services, where nature, culture, and convenience come together.
