Hawaiian Paradise Hale Ali’i Lists in Kapalua Close your eyes and picture the ultimate beachfront pad. Now open them and take a look at Hale Ali’i in Kapalua on the Hawaiian island of Maui. It just might be what you saw deep in your mind’s eye. Listed for $23.95 million, this grand estate is back on the market and represented by listing agent Raj Qsar of The Boutique Real Estate Group. When we spoke with Qsar about the home, the superlatives flowed like sand through the hourglass. He told us about how nature immediately envelops you and how natural elements are tightly woven into the home. “The moment you arrive, you realize how special this place is,” said Qsar. “Light pours in from everywhere. There is openness and fresh air. You see water, plant life and lushness in every window. It’s not just about views or a particular type of landscape. It’s really about how the place surrounds you.” Built in 2002 as a vacation getaway for a California family, Qsar knows the world-class home will attract a buyer who’s looking to add a piece of island life to their real estate portfolio. “Everything is top-of-the-line at Hale Ali’i,” he noted. “There’s a gourmet kitchen any chef would love and a sound-proof media room. It has all of the things a discerning buyer at this level would require and much more.” One of only five houses facing the ocean in the Kapalua resort community, you’ll also be neighbors with the Ritz-Carlton and the world-class links of Kapalua Golf. And while the home offers almost 7,500 square feet of living space, Qsar assured us it doesn’t have the feel of a sprawling mansion. “What’s interesting about this home is the contrast between humility and something grand,” he said. “It’s majestic, but in a relaxed, easygoing way. Instead of imposing its size and shape on the viewer, it blends in.” And in reference to that relaxed and laid-back vibe, the home’s custom finishes and decor provide a true island flavor. So we asked Qsar about the style of the Hale and how it’s designed to fit the spectacular surroundings. “The color of the exterior, right down to the trim, mimics colors in nature,” he emphasized. “The interior design achieves this goal, too, with a color palette that lets what’s outside take over. It’s the home of ‘royalty,’ but in a uniquely Hawaiian sense of the word.” For those who fantasize of a life of sand, surf and style, this pad in paradise just might be the place. Source: Realtor
