🌊 Makaha Valley Plantation | Rare Third-Floor Ocean View Condo + West Side Lifestyle
If you’ve been waiting for the right Makaha Valley Plantation listing, this one is different. Welcome to Unit 54C, a rare third-floor condo with ocean views and a completely modified floor plan that sets it apart from any other unit in the community.
Remember that beautiful luxury estate that we showed in Makaha Valley on the channel a few months ago
That's just right over there
We'll get some of the same views for a fraction of the price at our new listing in Makaha Valley plantation
All right guys today
We're going to show you our new listing in Makaha and spend a little time on the west side
It was intended to be east to west video
We had a final walkthrough for a 1.6 million dollar plus closing in Kailua
But that got pushed to tomorrow to get some selfies and include that in the video
But today we're gonna be here on the west side and this is I would say the gym of the west side
Kaha'aina Cafe anytime I'm here assuming I have time
I have to dive up here and see if they're open some of the best views of any place you could eat on the island
The west side ocean energy is the best on the whole island in my opinion
We're gonna go to Makaha Valley plantation to our clients new listing. Don't mind the hat when you bald out here
You gotta protect from the Sun, but we're here in Makaha Valley plantation
We are going up to unit 54 C
One of the things I really really want to show you is the ocean view in this community
You can see it's kind of terraced
But not all of the units have ocean view and in fact
Usually only the third floor units have ocean view of the third floor units
They're not all equal and that's one of the reasons you want to live out here, right?
Now you might go to the towers and get an even bigger ocean view
But you also have a different HOA and just a different living situation
Makaha Valley plantation is more favorable to a lot of people
But if you get in here, you would like to have the view the unit that we're gonna show you the day
This video comes out as the first time. It's gonna be on the mark first Sunday. That'll be on the market
It's also modified. It's just a special unit
It's a one-of-a-kind the way they've changed the floor plan the view so the third floor units, but not like this one
So let's go check it out. You may notice too that the channel recently has been like, oh, here's our new listing
Here's our new listing. Here's our new listing
Thank you guys for going to coreteamhawaii.com and going to the bottom filling out the contact form hitting us up for your real estate needs
Increasingly so we're getting more and more sellers reaching out because they want to see their property on the channel
They want the skills that they hear the nuance the straightforwardness and authenticity
They hear us display on the channel people don't even really think about the work Kenji puts in all these videos
Plus the team are for assistance. It's a lot of work
So when you guys go to the website and hit us up, we really appreciate it
There are only so many points of differentiation when selling a property but getting it on this channel and getting this exposure
It matters. In fact, these sellers slightly awkward
I was fine with it, but they interviewed two of us agents at the same time
So we overlap one of the difference makers was that we just get more exposure going
Okay, I'll catch you when you come in then we'll focus on like the kitchen or whatever. Okay?
All right, guys
So in Makaha Valley plantation the units are all kind of a similar size the first floor units have a little bigger deck
But then the third floor units have the view for me if you're gonna be in any of them
You want to be first floor for the reasons of the larger deck and the quicker walk up and egress or you want the third?
Floor as long as you're healthy enough to get up the stairs. The third floor gives this
View in my opinion the best views in this community. This is like West Maui or like there
This is million-dollar views right but at a three hundred thousand dollar price point
We had a year where I think we sold three or four not more than five
We sold multiple of these
We usually sell at least one or two a year people call us whether they're local or whether they're on the mainland and they say
Hey, I have cash and I want something on the island that is mine and I can control tired of renting
I'm a local auntie
Whatever the case may be or sometimes it's out-of-state investor out-of-state person who wants to move but they don't want a mortgage
So they want to buy cash at the three hundred thousand dollar price point
It's hard to get this view and all of this for that amount in Hawaii on Oahu nonetheless. Let's talk about this unit
I've not seen another C unit that usually the kitchens are like this
Peninsula just a regular kitchen long ago. They made this kitchen island. You have this butcher block cutting board looking kind of
countertop
It's just a different flow more of like an entertaining the oven this all that's going on when I came
The cabinets didn't look as good the owners to their credit
I don't know if they sanded but they definitely cleaned and oiled. It looks amazing if I just like
Freeze frame this right here
It's not obvious that we're in Makaha Valley plantation
It's an elevated
Bougie feel that the owners took a lot of pride in this unit and you can't find another unit with this layout and this whole
Thing you can't find it. I'll show you guys another secret. There was a split AC up here. We took it down
It's not non-operable, but this thing's set up for split air conditioning
You may not get approved to change the layout or if you did it's kind of cost prohibitive and a three hundred thousand dollar place
You wouldn't today you would not put the money and if you bought another one of these
You'd be unlikely to demo everything and make this island
These higher-end wood cabinets and the way that this pastor is it's different than the other units
It would just cost too much today
You know
You want to put 80 grand into something that's 300,000 or you just buy this for 300,000 show you guys the bedrooms real quick
Fresh carpet Mahalo to our guy John for putting it in built-in cabinets
Let me know in the comments if I'm a single person here
I probably don't put a TV out there. I just keep that as my open-air energy vibro
I make this like a little den or a little office with a screen there and there's good airflow coming through here
Check out the other bed these two so these built-in the other units don't all necessarily have all of this stuff
And or this one doesn't have the built-in cabinet. So it feels even bigger. This will be my bedroom
That would be my office and then the kitchen dining area would just be my place to hang out vibe catch the views all
Walk-in shower for convenience freshly painted. Oh, yeah, shout outs to the owner say eight out of ten sellers
I'm no exception. We feel we have the best one. Well, you know mine, you know, it's it's kind of east-south facing
So you only get sunlight when you want it and then you don't have some things that don't necessarily matter all of us sellers think
That we have that but then not all of us sellers want to invest a little bit of money into painting and to doing a
Few things to freshen thing up. In fact, I just got my rental ready
I didn't want to paint it but I ended up doing it because I had a good property manager that pushed me to do it
These sellers proactively went ahead and just freshened everything up got fresh paint on the walls
Cleaned up and oiled the cabinets. This thing is ready for you at 300,000
We're about to wrap up our time on the west side here. We were way over there in Makaha and
Now we're in my eerie kind of the middle of the Waianae Coast Aiden had a showing to do for one of our clients
So Kenji and I said no worries. We're on this side
We'll go ahead and bang it out. Sometimes people watch our videos. They're like, oh I saw your Westside video
You guys do a ton of Westside or I saw your Kailua video. You guys do a ton of Kailua
We actually do a lot of business on almost the whole island
There's an area or two in the island where we don't do a ton
I've not sold a lot in Kalihi for example and then up like Laie we don't do a ton of business those two areas
But for the rest of the island from Kailua, Hawaii, Kai all the way to the west side
We do a lot just so happen our team needed something today. So we stopped here in this sea of duplexes
This is a unique community. So my understanding is that
Japanese investors came in and they're developing this community and then
They pulled out when you see this
It's not obvious that we're in Waianae as you from Waianae you understand where we are
A lot of people aren't familiar with this community
I know someone who might want to sell their duplex in this community sometime soon
So if that's something you're interested in probably a few months out on that one. Let me know
That's why you should go to coreteamhawaii.com and go to the bottom and fill out the contact form and hit us up
Because there's always something like that that guy. I know from my kids boxing
He just pulled me aside the other day and said hey, I think I might want to sell this
Someone else in Hawaii Kai who just the other day said hey, I think I might need you to sell
We have this Makaha Valley listing. We have Mililani townhome listing
We have single-family and Kapolei coming up actually didn't list this one
But one of my friends was selling a place in Moanalua and although they had a prior arrangement when they're the agent
We knew about it before it came to market, etc
So well, it's not guaranteed. We have the thing that you want off-market. It's possible because we do a ton of business, right?
So go to coreteamhawaii.com hit us up final walkthrough
You're looking for is anything broken? Did they take anything that they weren't supposed to take?
Did they leave anything that they weren't supposed to these whole process that if you're working with us
We'll explain and fight for you
Should you want to be fought for one interesting thing look the termite company who did the termite tenting?
They left these clips in the pool five six clips in the pool
