Olomana is a favorite Kailua neighborhood when one is looking to purchase Kailua Real Estate. Of the various areas of real estate in Kailua, Olomana is well-known for its attractive landscaping and well-kept, mid-century homes, with the backdrop of picturesque Mt. Olomana, its namesake. Olomana is also known for its Community Garage Sale, one of the largest in the Kailua area. The Olomana neighborhood is definitely one of the most friendliest and most “neighborly” areas in Kailua.

The Olomana neighborhood in Kailua is also well-located, an easy commute to either the center of Kailua Town or to Honolulu. Just hop on the nearby Pali Highway.

This Kailua home for sale is unique in that it may be lived in as a 4/2, or split into two units: a 2/1 with 2/1 OR a 3/1 with 1/1. Having floorplan flexibility makes this Kailua real estate all the more valuable, as rental income and multi-generational possibilities are important to many Kailua families.
