Welcome home to 742 Kekona Place, tucked into the heart of Makawao. If you love the charm of country living, the sense of community that comes with a small town, & the convenience of being approximately 20 minutes from the beach, this Upcountry home offers a wonderful blend of it all. Thoughtfully maintained and beautifully updated, 742 Kekona Place is a home where the attention to detail is immediately apparent. The kitchen was refreshed in 2026 with quartz countertops, high-end cabinetry, new lighting fixtures, & a bespoke backsplash inspired by the colors & movement of the sea. Automatic blinds add another thoughtful touch, bringing both convenience and a clean, modern feel to the home. The 500+ sqft garage has been transformed into the ultimate hangout space, creating an incredible extension of the home & an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. Whether used as a game room, home gym, workshop, entertaining space, or the ultimate "mancave," it adds flexibility and plenty of room to spread out. Outside is where this property truly comes to life. Tropical landscaping, hot tub, ambient lighting, & multiple seating areas create a private backyard oasis that feels especially magical in the evenings. The front lanai wraps around the side of the home, offering even more space to relax outdoors, while a high-end fence accented with beautiful lighting adds privacy & a polished, resort-like feel. The location is equally special. Enjoy fast access to Makawao town with new sidewalks being built, as well as nearby Eddie Tam Park where a new playground is also being added. The Makawao Rodeo grounds are closeby too, putting some of Upcountry’s best-loved community spots right at your fingertips. Every corner of 742 Kekona Place has been thoughtfully enhanced with an eye toward comfort, function, & the smallest details. Come experience this special home for yourself & feel the magic of Makawao.

Maui Island, located between Kahului Harbor and Haleakalā, is a coastal and upcountry Kahului neighborhood with a working waterfront and broad volcanic slopes. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Dairy Road and Kaʻahumanu Avenue corridor, where local plate-lunch counters, surf-and-outdoor shops, and service storefronts set a practical, on-the-go rhythm. Maui Arts & Cultural Center anchors the calendar with concerts and exhibitions, while Maui Brewing Co. (Kihei) and Tin Roof keep the local flavor conversation lively. Architecture shifts from plantation-era remnants to low-slung commercial blocks and newer subdivisions. Trade winds, salt air, and mountain views shape daily routines. Beaches, parks, and trailheads frame weekends in sand, shade, and switchbacks.
