About this home

E komo mai i Makawao! Imagine skipping the permit lines, the architect bills, and the years of waiting on the county, and going straight to breaking ground. This 1.8-acre lot comes with three rare 5/8" county water meters and county-approved plans for a main house with an attached ohana. This combination on Maui is about as turnkey as it gets. Easy to show and an extremely unique CPR with very little restrictions compared to others. Lot A is zoned R-3, so you can build up to three homes of any size. The land is level to gently sloping, with views that sweep from the North Shore to Haleakala to the West Maui Mountains, and even Molokai on clear days. Sit out at pau hana and watch the light change over the whole Valley Isle. The lot is located at the end of a quiet road that butts up against the Maui Gold pineapple fields, so you get unobstructed green space and country privacy in a true Upcountry paniolo setting. Even so, you can walk to the shops, restaurants, and historic charm of Makawao Town. Paia Town and Baldwin Beach are less than 10 minutes away, while Costco and the airport are about 20 minutes away. Three water meters, zoned R-3, approved plans in hand, and location, location, location! This is the hidden gem you’ve been waiting for.

About Haliimaile

Ahupua`a

Haliimaile Ahupua`a, located between Paia and Makawao, is a plantation-era and upcountry Maui neighborhood with sugar-camp streetscapes and open agricultural views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Haliimaile Road near the former mill grounds, where low-slung buildings, roadside fruit stands, and a steady flow of cyclists set the tempo. Haliimaile Distilling anchors the area with a working spirits campus and tasting room. Nearby, the Maui Gold Pineapple Company grounds and the Haliimaile Community Center reinforce the place-based, working-land identity. Housing reads as modest, practical forms with deep lots and breezy setbacks. Trade winds, cane-field geometry, and Haleakalā’s slope shape daily rhythms.
