Aloha everybody, Mike Drutard, Principal Broker of Next Home Paradise Realty bringing you another
property tour today. We're in Pu'u Lani Ranch. This is an area right between Kona and Waikoloa
up in the country. Cool elevation in a really wonderful area. It's about say about 15 minutes
or so north of Kona and you're out here in the country. It is nice and let me tell you
the prices are good. This is a listing by Jennifer Bien and Cindy Whittemore in our
office Next Home Paradise Realty. I'm going to have all the information down in the description
below. You can click the link and see the price of this after well as long as it's still available
and you're going to see this thing is a lot less than you might expect. This is really big inside.
You got a lot of space. Great inside and out. Got an acre and yeah I think you're going to like it.
You're up here in the country. All you hear are the birds. It is pretty nice. Very loved
neighborhood out here. They've got this one done with some very low maintenance landscaping here
in front with a lot of the gravel. If you wanted to add grass you could but I think they're doing
pretty good with this. Extra large driveway. We have a metal roof. Fully guttered. Nicely painted
all the way around. Extra large garage. Two-car garage. Get inside and I'll show you that as well.
Nice wide sidewalk. I'm going to show you the outside. The inside. Tell you my three favorite
things. The one thing I would change or add if this was mine. Coming all the way around here.
Let's just check out the outside in its entirety. Right now it looks like we do have some irrigation
in here with some trees over on the side. I think I see an avocado tree. A couple different types of
avocado trees over there. We got some giant white bird of paradise and then they brought the grass
in over here in the back. So for those of you who want to see the grass. There you go. An acre is
nice. You really have some room to breathe out here. Nice large covered lanai. Good job on that.
We got a couple ac compressors. Got the mini split system. Candidly I'll tell you I'm surprised that
it has it at this elevation. We don't get too warm but maybe a couple months here there during the
summer. This is the middle of the day. It is 3 15 right now. We have our tropical inversion layer
of clouds that have set in and it is comfortable. It feels like it's maybe like 78 degrees.
It feels really nice. I like this low maintenance landscaping because it just goes. You cut the grass,
trim the bushes every once in a while. Christmastime. Did you know royal poinsettia.
Sorry. Why am I blanking on this? Poinsettias. Poinsettias grow out here in Hawaii really well
and they bloom right around Christmastime. Looks like we got some rosemary. There's plenty of
rosemary there. More over here. I like these little paths they have set up here. Pretty nice. You have
some greenery and you don't have to do too much with it. Really really cool. All the way back up
front we have our solar hot water heater panel on the top there. There's no solar pv on that one.
I can see someone wanting to add that here. Got a service door from the garage.
Exterior is in great shape. This home is in really good condition. Let's get inside. I think you're
going to be pretty impressed. Again, check the current price down on that link in the description
below. I'm going to kick my shoes off and then pick it up as soon as I get back inside the front door.
Okay, check it out guys. We got a double door entry and we come right down. We have,
I don't know if this is LVP or another type of engineered product on our floor, but it looks
great. We do have carpet in the bedrooms. Nice large living area. Now again, check the price.
Check the prices at other areas in Kona and you're not getting this value in Kailua town.
You are saving hundreds of thousands out here and if you can handle the 15-20 minute drive to Kona,
a ton of value. Quick spin around here so you can see all this. Such, yeah, a lot of space guys.
Extra large living room, vaulted ceilings, recessed lights, two ceiling fans. There's
a split AC system over there. Nice double slider going outside. We have a window on
either side of that double slider. Big amount of space in here. You know, they have this dining
room table set up over here just to maximize the space. This home is well staged up together. I
believe it might be staged. I'll have to check with them. In any case,
you could lay this main area out a number of different ways. You can move a dining room
table closer over there, create two different living spaces, one with a TV and one with a
lounge, kind of like you set up over here for a conversation area. It is a large space, so you
really do have a lot of flexibility. This is a screaming deal. You know, this is the first time
I've been inside. We've had it listed for about three weeks, I think maybe, maybe a little longer,
and I've been surprised it hasn't moved already, and now I'm even more surprised because it looks
even better in person than it did online. Have our nice island right here. Let's check out,
yep, dovetail joints, soft closed drawers, plenty of space here, extra nice and deep cabinets over
here. We have gas, be propane. I saw a couple of propane tanks on the side. One, two, three,
four, five burner on top, and then up here we have a whirlpool on our microwave, plenty of storage on
the left and right of your cooking areas. Just the camera down just a little bit. There we go.
Have a lot of storage here in the island, of course, and then pretty darn decent size
pantry with some really solid shelves built in there, so a lot of space there.
Crown molding on our upper cabinets is a really wonderful look, and then really nice restaurant
style faucet here. Oh, it's got a magnetic clip there on that. How do you like that? Pretty cool.
Single basin sink, whirlpool on our dishwasher. Yeah, good amount of storage in here, and then
got Samsung side-by-side stainless steel with ice and water in the door,
and then your freezer drawer down below. Coming through here, have a little sink here in our
utility pedestals on the bottom of the washer and dryer, both front-loading. LG, these are nice.
These are big, really big washer dryers here. Okay, and then here's our electrical breaker box
right here. Pretty handy where they have that, and then let's come real quick here into the garage.
Two-car garage, but it's a large two with a couple other features in here. Don't sleep on this.
Got about three and a half, four feet on either side, so nice and wide. Got some shelving in here.
Always need that in your garage. Extra refrigerator, smart. You even have a half bath.
Yeah, toilet and a sink right here, so if you're doing dirty work, working on a car or project or
whatever, you can clean it before you go inside, and then we have a closet with our solar hot water
heater, and then I'll unlock this real quick, and then hopefully remember to lock it. Right out here
back to that side yard, so you have your service door. Nice. Good space on our garage. Very usable.
You know, when you're out here, I'll tell you the land is cheaper out here, and that allows you to
spend more money on the house than somewhere else where you had to pay, you know, $150,000, $250,000
more for the land. You can get an acre here a lot less. Look at the size of this primary. Holy cow.
You can get an acre out here for a lot less than you can in town. You know, we get spoiled.
20-minute drive, we're like, oh my gosh, how am I ever going to live with the 20-minute drive?
You guys on the mainland are always driving 20 minutes everywhere, so it's not a big deal, and
you save yourself a lot of money. This is a really good primary suite. My gosh, this is about, I feel
like this is about 30 by 20. Really big. We got a king-size bed over here with a good five feet on
either side of the bed. Then you have this pony wall here. Great space for a desk, so if you need
a home office, you've got it. You set it up right there, and then when you're on your Zoom calls,
this would be behind you, or you could even put your desk right here in the middle,
and then that wall and that window behind me would be what was behind you for your Zoom calls,
because everyone's going to be, you know, kind of working from home these days, it seems like.
We got our split AC system there. We got high ceilings. I think we're at eight foot, nine foot
ceilings in here. I think eight foot ceilings and then nine foot up there in the top. Do have a little
reverse tray on our ceiling treatment. High baseboards. Flush trim around the windows and
the doors. Got a slight bevel on the top of that baseboard. The carpet under my feet feels outstanding.
It feels and looks really new. If this is not new, I am pretty surprised, because it is in
excellent shape. There's a good pad under here and it feels great. Yeah, nice job. And then,
holy smokes, you're not going to find this in a home at a similar price in Kona. Really good
size closet with some, I mean, this is a great built-in. Look at all these drawers.
Really good job. Soft close on that. This is really, really nice. Honestly, guys, I could live here.
Yeah, I'm liking it. Let's come check out this bathroom. Well, first, I like this tile. Is that
coming out? Can you see the reflection there? Let me center up the camera. There we go. 12 by 24
tile with a nice glaze on that. Looks great. And then, we have that same countertop that we had
over there in the kitchen. Dual basin vanity. Brushed nickel on our fixtures. And I think it's
the same. Yeah, it looks like it's the same cabinets. Again, soft close. Dovetail joints.
Got our toilet over here. And then, just a little, just the railing of that to step into our
shower. The shower door, a glass shower door right here. Plenty of space. I know exactly
what I'm doing on this one. You got a modest tub over here with really good tile all the way around.
Yeah, I know the one thing I'm going to change. We'll call that foreshadowing.
And then, I like the setup that you have. This is a three-bedroom home that you have
two bedrooms on the opposite side. This is what people are kind of looking for these days,
to have the bedrooms on opposite areas. So, you have nice privacy. Again, same countertops,
same cabinets. They haven't skimped on any of it. Tile all the way up to the ceiling. It's
nice and glazed. Looks great. Got a linen closet right here to my right. Come to the end
of this hall. We got a bedroom. You could hold a king-size bed in here if you need.
Queen would probably be preferable, but you could definitely get a king in here. You got
a slider going out to the backyard. And, oh wow, he's got a built-in here at least. Yeah,
a little extra space. Let me actually move this the other way. There we go. So, pretty nice to
have that. You can still put your dresser over here, but depending on how much clothing you have,
you may not even need to. A second linen closet on the other side, right over here. So,
we basically got a mirror. This might be a little bit bigger. Maybe. And then, built-ins over there
as well. Really good job. You are getting some bang for your buck on this one, guys.
Let's do another pan around here. Really good. This is a nice deal. It is a very,
it's really comfortable up here. It's a great elevation. Let's come up here and check out
this lanai real quick. Got some screens that we can lower. You're facing the west, so
if you do get too much sun, you can lower that. Plenty of space out here for your table and
chairs, your lounge area, conversation area. And again, it's so quiet. Really, really well done.
Three favorite things, and the one thing I would change or add if this was mine. Favorite thing
number one. Boy, you got some value. I think I probably mentioned that. A lot of square footage
in great condition on a large piece of land for the money. In Konatown, 20 minutes away,
you're not getting, you're not sniffing this for within $400,000 of where they are on this price.
So, if you're looking for value, if that's you, you don't like neighbors on top of you,
this might be a really, really good one for you. Yeah. Excellent. Favorite thing number two.
This space here, the layout of it is really big. You got that whole open concept thing,
but a lot of flexibility in how you use it. Just a nice amount of square footage. Favorite thing
number three is going to absolutely be the size of this primary. You could literally put
another king-size bed on this wall right here and have plenty of space still in between. No problem.
Like having all this flexibility. I mean, seriously, I've had apartments that were
smaller than this. I'm not even kidding. I've had apartments that were significantly smaller than
this primary suite with that excellent closet. The one thing I would change or add. Now,
some people are going to say PV, and that's fine, but for me, because everything else is just so
perfect, I'm not a big tub guy. I would probably just change this out into one giant wet wall,
maybe have a couple shower heads, and maybe, I guess, put a freestanding tub over there
if I need one. If nothing else, that's if I want to go big time. If I want to go small, I'd remove
this, put a permanent glass wall that comes to about right there, and then just go straight in
with a zero threshold. That would be the easy way to make the change, and then you can make the big
change just depending on your lifestyle and what you like. Some people love the tub.
They wouldn't want to do it. We're in great shape, guys. This is a killer deal, in my opinion.
I am pretty surprised it's still available. This is in move-in ready condition. I don't see anything
that you would really need to change to enjoy this.
I hope you like this video. I got more for you in the corner, and I'll see you again real soon.
