ask questionPerched above the pristine waters of Honokeana Cove, 34 Papaua Place offers a front-row seat to Maui’s breathtaking coastline and an extraordinary opportunity to create your dream home. This ocean front architect designed masterpiece is the perfect canvas for a fresh start, with unlimited opportunity to create your dream waterfront home. Tucked at the end of a private road, and set within an exclusive oceanfront community, surrounded by the island’s natural beauty, yet just minutes from Maui’s finest beaches, dining, and outdoor activities. Stepping through the front door, you’re greeted by the sound of the ocean gently kissing the rocks below and the salty breeze of the Pacific. The home’s expansive layout is a blank canvas, awaiting your vision to transform it into your own tropical sanctuary. The main residence offers three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and a spacious two-tier mezzanine/loft area which the owner is currently using as sunset viewing room and a fourth bedroom. On one side of the home, the primary suite provides privacy and a front-row seat to the breathtaking ocean views. On the other side, two additional bedrooms offer their own retreat, making this floor plan ideal for both family living and hosting guests. At the center of the home, the kitchen and living area flow seamlessly, creating a hub for entertaining or simply soaking in the unparalleled view of the ocean and neighboring Molokai island. Above the detached garage, there was once a charming one-bedroom, one-bathroom ohana. However, due to a recent fire, it has been damaged and will need to be rebuilt. Once restored using the available original architectural plans, it will be perfect for hosting extended family, accommodating friends, or even generating rental income. (Please ask us about options on the insurance claim in place). The true showstopper is the property’s location. Honokeana Cove is your backyard, a haven for surfers, snorkelers, swimmers and marine enthusiasts. The cove’s crystal-clear waters are home to dozens of green sea turtles, and its vibrant coral reefs make every snorkeling trip an unforgettable adventure. Just minutes away, you’ll find the iconic Napili Bay, a crescent of fine golden sand and calm waters perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, or enjoying a leisurely beach day. Beyond the bay, West Maui offers an array of dining options, from casual beachfront spots to world-class restaurants, along with endless opportunities for hiking, golfing, and exploring the island’s natural beauty. While the home requires some tender loving care, this is where the magic lies, an unparalleled opportunity to reimagine and craft a dream property to your exact specifications. With ample square footage, a thoughtful floor plan, and one of the most sought-after locations in Maui, 34 Papaua Place is the perfect foundation for a fresh start. Imagine mornings spent sipping coffee on your lanai, watching the sunrise over the cove, and evenings filled with the laughter of loved ones as the sun sets into the Pacific. This isn’t just a home—it’s the beginning of a new chapter, where every day feels like a vacation and the possibilities are as endless as the horizon.
