About this home

Step into wonder the moment you arrive. The driveway winds beneath a natural canopy of mature trees, where the air cools, light softens, and the outside world fades away. Entering a hidden garden… quiet, sheltered, and deeply immersed in the surrounding nature. The grounds have been thoughtfully cultivated into a lush tropical paradise, abundant with fruiting trees, vibrant flowers, and layered green foliage. The landscape transforms throughout the day: golden morning light filtering through leaves, colorful sunsets framing the palms, and clear nights revealing stars and moonlight from the upper lanai. Two thoughtfully designed structures fully renovated in 2023 configured as a flexible 2-bedroom, 2-bath haven... deal for living, working, or hosting guests. A bright studio space with windows on all four sides and stunning Haleakala and garden views has opportunity to be a third bedroom. Interiors exude calm, designer-inspired elegance with clean lines, abundant natural light, and an effortless relaxed atmosphere. Expansive openings frame captivating garden views, while seamless indoor-outdoor flow invites the landscape into everyday life. Shaded lanais offer serene spots for morning coffee with Haleakala vistas or open-air evening dining. Fully equipped for modern off-grid independence, the property boasts three 5,000-gallon water tanks and a robust photovoltaic system with lithium battery storage for reliable power. Phone and high-speed fiber optic internet keep you connected without sacrificing privacy. A prime building site awaits, offering the potential to create a future main residence with stunning ocean and mountain views—unlocking even greater long-term opportunities. Private, intentional, and deeply rooted in its natural surroundings, this Haiku sanctuary invites a lifestyle of simplicity, comfort, and daily communion with the elements.

About

Huelo

Huelo, located between Haiku and Keanae, is a rural and coastal Haiku-Pauwela neighborhood with winding one-lane roads and deep gulches cut by waterfalls. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Hana Highway near the Huelo Lookout, where roadside pull-offs, fruit stands, and ocean-facing viewpoints set an unhurried rhythm. Plantation-era cottages and tucked-away farmsteads sit among bamboo, eucalyptus, and taro patches, with frequent glimpses of the North Shore. Twin Falls anchors the area’s outdoor culture with short trails and swimming holes. Nearby, Garden of Eden Arboretum frames the landscape with curated paths and lookouts. A drive through Huelo reads like a living postcard of East Maui’s wet side.
