Welcome to the Wahiawa Whitehouse. Some homes have a story, this one has nearly a century of them. This diamond is documented in the Historic Hawai'i Foundation's survey as an Eligible/Significant Craftsman residence, there is not much else like it on O'ahu. Longtime home of the Kunihisa family, including State Senator Lawrence "Peanuts" Kunihisa. New roof w/ hurricane clips, type-X drywall, flooring, electrical and plumbing. New stained accents blend seamlessly with the existing redwood framing, and 10 ft ceilings make every room feel grand. Taj Mahal quartz countertops were chosen for the elevated space. The lower level holds a mud room, dining and living rooms, kitchen, pantry, laundry and 2BR/1BA. Upstairs, 3BR/2BA including an XL primary looking out to the Waianae Range. Two-car garage with 9 ft ceilings, plus a basement. There's so much character and history, you must see if for yourself! The 7,139 sq ft yard area is professionally landscaped with irrigation and exterior lighting. Minutes to Schofield, Wheeler and town, with North Shore Beaches a short drive down the hill, and only 16 miles from HNL airport. Homes like this don't come up often, they get handed down.
Central Oahu, located between Wahiawa and Mililani, is a residential and military-adjacent Schofield Barracks neighborhood with broad training greens and a low-rise, orderly streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Schofield Barracks Main Gate on Kunia Road, where ID checkpoints, shuttles, and steady commuter flow set a purposeful tempo. Housing reads as practical and uniform, with clusters of base residences and community facilities arranged around open lawns and internal roads. Wheeler Army Airfield adds a wide-sky backdrop and a sense of scale at the edge of daily routines. Tropics Recreation Center and the Schofield Bowling Center act as familiar gathering spots for off-duty hours. Leilehua Golf Course brings a manicured, quiet counterpoint to the working cadence of the installation.
