This vintage kama’aina compound (MLS# 249164), located in the world famous Holualoa Kona coffee belt, sits at an optimal 1,150 foot elevation above the Keauhou Resort area.
This property was actually once owned by William Quinn, Governor of the Territory of Hawai’i, who was appointed by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1957. With an immaculately remodeled Main House, fully permitted Ohana unit, and single bath studio structure currently used as a vacation rental, this vintage compound is a great deal.
Lovingly restored living room harkens back to the days of Old Hawai’i
Restored and Remodeled Main House
The classic Main residence with its vaulted ceilings, oak floors, and lava rock fireplace have been restored to their historic glory. The remodeled kitchen with its solid slab Van Gogh granite counters and cooking island, features stainless appliances. Cork floors complete this amazing remodel and guarantee comfort under foot.

Did I Forget to Mention the Pool?
The Main residence, if not already fantastic for entertaining, boasts a wooden-decked outdoor lanai and fully fenced-in pool area. Large enough for parties and large family BBQ’s, this space is one of the main selling points of the home in my honest opinion.
Sprawling outdoor BBQ lanai and pool area set among the lush vegetation is perfect for parties!
Highly Sought After Location
The Holualoa Kona coffee belt is world renowned for its perfect tropical climate, privacy, and close proximity to the Keauhou Resort area and downtown Kailua-Kona. This vintage compound is located just down the road from the Donkey Mill Art Center, and resides in the Holualoa School District as well.
This home is perfect for someone looking for that authentic Hawaiiana lifestyle surrounded by nothing but tropical plants, native birds, and the sounds of nature. With fantastic potential for any number of uses, I’m seriously surprised that this home is still on the market. Did I mention that it’s had a $90,000 price reduction as well? What are you waiting for?!
A hui hou!
