2 Hoaka Place: Residential Charmer in West Maui Gated Neighborhood

2 Hoaka Place: Residential Charmer in West Maui Gated Neighborhood

Look no further in West Maui if you are searching for a more modern, clean, 3 bed/2.5 bath 2-story home, priced under $800K in a gated community, that is move-in ready, “isn’t too big, or too small,” includes real hard wood flooring, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a private fenced-in backyard with an extended deck, a garage, a recreational park – and you want it all with HOA fees under $80/month and property taxes (for an owner occupant) that are even lower…?
 
Two-story gray home with an attached garage, covered porch, and front lawn.
 
2 Hoaka Place: Built in 1999 and upgraded in 2006. Bring your rocking chair.
 
Well, if you made it through that first sentence 🙂 and are familiar with the West Maui real estate market, then you know that those types of properties are very hard to come by. They almost literally do not exist.
 
Living room with dark hardwood floors, a cream rug, and seating by several windows.
 
On the main level: an open living room floorplan and genuine hard wood flooring
 
In fact, as of publishing date of this article, there are currently only 2 residential properties for sale under $800K in all of Honokowai/Kahana/Napili district and none of them fit the billing described above. With that said, 2 Hoaka Pl. (MLS# 365481) is not only a beautiful home, but is the least expensive residential property for sale in this area, and a tremendous purchase value opportunity. It is officially listed for sale as of July 1, 2015.
 
Furnished living room with upright piano, dark wood floors, and colorful wall art.
 
With a designer’s touch, the lower level area of this home, including living room and kitchen, was remodeled in 2006
