Front row #203 at Ka Milo in the famed Mauna Lani Resort, with rare ocean and golf course views and seasonal sunsets, has been a full-time home for the last four years. Zoned for Short Term Vacation rentals should the next owner so desire. Beautifully and brilliantly upgraded kitchen with extra-large and wide quartz island and counters, with softer colors added to the original all wood cabinetry bringing a modern and lighter feel to the entire home. The foyer has been opened to immediately see the sky and ocean view as you enter the front door. All three bathrooms have been remodeled with clean, white tiling, quartz counters, new bronze fixtures and flooring with the principal bath being the dramatic showstopper. The large downstairs family room has been converted to create an office space which can also be used as an extra sleeping area creating the feel of a 4-bedroom home. The private pool and hot spa are surrounded by mature palms and provide the ultimate privacy while looking out on the golf course and ocean horizon. Approx. 500' of Trex decking frames the exterior on two sides allowing for additional outdoor living space. A limited photo voltaic system of 21 panels and the AC system work in harmony for comfortable indoor living although the folding glass doors to the lanai can be open to the view. As an owner in Mauna Lani your privileges include the owner’s private beach club and the Mauna Lani Ohana Club provides discounts for golf.
