Your gateway to turquoise waters, soft white sand, and the quintessential island lifestyle! Waking up to ocean breezes and a stroll across the street to world-famous Kailua Beach, this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage makes every day feel like vacation. A cozy size set on a low-maintenance parcel, it lives comfortably larger—providing all the benefits of a single-family home without the maintenance fees of a condo. Enjoy park and partial ocean views from multiple rooms, and dining al fresco on your private lanai. Wander a few minutes to Kailua or Lanikai Beach for paddleboarding, kite boarding, kayaking, snorkeling, or open-water swims. With bike paths out your front door, a restaurant a stroll away, a public charter school just up the road, and a private country club nearby, this cottage places you in the heart of Kailua’s active, outdoor lifestyle.
