Originally built in 1958 and lovingly updated over the years while retaining its classic and relaxed style, this Kauai beach house, available for permanent or vacation rental use, stands near the high point of Poipu Beach. With vast south-westerly views across the breath of this favored coastline, watch the surf roll in, sunset over the horizon and life within this small beach town unfold.
Adoringly presented as an old Hawaii home, its Hawaiian name of Kapakai, means waters edge, and depicts the feeling one has when here. Outside, the landscape is dotted with a collection of plumeria trees, and with a land area of over 16,000 square feet, this lot leaves room for additional building space if desired.
Inside, the 3 bedrooms are anchored by a great room complete with the classic wood floors you expect, and artwork created by local favorites. Rest in the comfort of the living area where conversation comes naturally and enjoy meals prepared from the galley kitchen. Take in a movie in the media room before retiring and wake up recharged for your next adventure.
Vacation rent or move on in – the choice is yours and Kapakai will welcome you.
