Tucked into a lush tropical setting on approximately 10,000 square feet of land, this Kauai gem offers the kind of lifestyle people move to the island for. The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home features approximately 1,032 square feet of living space, complemented by a spacious 192 square foot enclosed screen lanai that brings the outdoors in year round. Elevated on pillars with a solid concrete foundation, the lower level adds an impressive 1,224 square feet of open space with potential for a future structure or Additional Rental Unit. Buyer(s) to verify with the County. Step upstairs and you are welcomed by an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and a well appointed kitchen featuring quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinetry with everything you need to settle right in. Luxury vinyl LifeProof plank flooring flows throughout, giving the home a clean and cohesive feel. One of the standout features of this property is the spectacular custom pool and spa built in 2013, surrounded by custom stonework complete with a waterfall, private grotto, waterslide, and outdoor shower. The terraced backyard adds to the appeal with an assortment of tropical plants and mature vegetation that give the space a lush, private feel. Recent upgrades give the next owner exceptional peace of mind: a brand new roof installed just three years ago, a solar photovoltaic system consisting of 14 panels paired with a Tesla Powerwall battery for energy independence, and split zoned AC units for customized comfort throughout the home. The septic system was upgraded in 2018 to support up to four bedrooms, leaving room to grow. A private easement driveway shared by just three homes adds to the sense of seclusion, all while being just minutes from the beach, bike path, shopping, dining, and schools.

Residential District - 4 DU per Acre
The Residential District regulates the number of people living in a given area by specifying the maximum allowable number of dwelling units that may be developed on any given parcel of land. In order not to differentiate between economic groups or life-styles, a reasonable flexibility in the type of dwelling units and their placement on the land has been provided; to establish standards governing the development, construction and use of housing and dwelling facilities; to provide opportunity for all groups of persons to obtain adequate housing within each area of the County suitable for residential use in relation to other land uses and consistent with the preservation of natural, scenic, and historic resources; to establish the level of minimum services necessary to assure the adequacy of housing; to encourage a variety of housing types, sizes and densities necessary to meet the needs of all economic groups and to avoid environmental monotony detrimental to the quality of life; and to maintain the character and integrity of communities within residential districts and support residents in continuing to live and raise their families in these neighborhoods.
