One of a kind on a beautifully landscaped acre! Lovingly designed and built by owner/architect this unique home is an open, Japanese-style cluster of pavilions around a courtyard with Japanese garden and Koi/lily pond. From the gated entry with lava rock walkway, you have entered an oasis of peace and calm, enhanced by the "Tsukubi" fountain at the Koi pond. This AIA Honolulu, 2000 award-winning home was designed to capture the cooling breezes and to give every room a view to the courtyard or surrounding gardens, fitting perfectly into the tropical setting. Sliding shoji doors open from the living areas to over 900 sq.ft. of covered decks and walkways, perfect for entertaining with lots of indoor/outdoor flow. The vaulted ceilings, screened windows with decorative grills and bamboo hardwood flooring add to island-style living. Hours of work and much thought has gone into the landscaping including many varieties of plants, palms and citrus such as tangelo and grapefruit. See MLS attachment for other Special Features and sketch of floor plan. Owners are artists which is evident in the style, design and decor of the home. An art studio or hobby room located off the garage is a perfect spot to work on creations with good natural light. They have enjoyed an active retirement here and are now ready to turn over the fruits of their labors to an appreciative buyer for future enjoyment. This is truly a place for creation, reflection and relaxation!
