Return to the days of yesteryear when life in the country was simple. This 1938 built plantation cottage will take you there! This home has been lovingly restored without too much change in the simple design. Walking through the house and property you can feel the history. Out buildings include an old Japanese style wash/bath house - featuring two furo tubs - one original deep concrete tub and one "modern style" from the 60's! There's even a separate old country style outhouse with a plumbed toilet! The property is over 39,000 sq ft - almost an acre! The land boasts over 20 fruit trees. The Granddaddy of them all being a majestic Lychee tree that must be over 50 years old. Built in this tree is a tree house that is any kid's dream! Even the kid at heart can enjoy this spot! Sitting on the front porch just outside the spacious eat in kitchen in the cool, high Kalaheo breezes, you have a grand view of the ocean and the south shore coast line. You must see this home in person to appreciate it - it just feels good!Currently the owners do not have a full stove and oven installed. They use microwave, toaster oven and two free standing induction burners for their cooking. However, to give the home a full kitchen, they are in the process of adding an electric stove/oven. Current kitchen was originally an enclosed lanai. It has been recently remodeled. Site of old garage is level place with "grass-crete" to east of house - ready and big enough for buyer to build a large carport, garage and/or boat storage.
