Kailua Home for Sale: Fun and Funky Tropical Paradise in Kailua

By Yvonne Ahearn (B), Realtor-Broker in Unique Oahu Homes

Thursdays are the days for Oahu Realtors Broker’s Open in Kailua. I try to get out every week, so I can get a jump on the best deals for my clients who are looking to buy Oahu real esate and to keep up to date with the Oahu real estate on the market. 

My favorite Oahu home for sale for this week is located just a few homes from famed Kailua Beach and has deeded beach access. What makes this home unique and my favorite this week are three things: (1) a HUGE lot, almost 13,000 sq ft - there is plenty of room for a pool and lots of grass, great kids yard or wonderful if you like to do a lot of entertaining (2) tropical, fun, bamboo/tiki style decor - well, this is not for everyone, but it certainly works well in this location, and (3) an open & breezy floorplan - many of the rooms open to the outside. Great for truly indoor/outdoor lifestyle like we have here in Kailua. The home has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It is very unique in its use of bamboo on the walls and ceilings. I have never seen anything quite like it.

Here are some photos.

A better look at the Master Bedroom’s Bamboo Wall Decor - these photos really don’t do it justice. There is a rock garden at the bottom that you can’t see, and the background for the bamboo is a woven material. A faux bamboo forest.

This is what I call the TIKI Bedroom - You can’t really see it, but the tikis flanking each side of the daybed light up from the inside. Note the elephant bamboo wainscoting behind the bed, and on the rest of the walls.

ROOM WITH A VIEW - Besides the intricate bamboo and thatch ceiling, and wainscoting, this room features a wall mural that looks a lot like Kailua Beach. This room also opens out to the gorgeous backyard.
