MLS# 407937 – 12 Areca Pl, Lahaina, HI 96761

Welcome Home to 12 Areca Place. This fully re-modeled OCEAN VIEW home offers 2,914 square feet of interior living space with four good sized bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a fantastic floor plan designed for flexibility and everyday use. The home is located in a quiet, flat cul-de-sac shared with only two other properties and sits directly across from a large private park that will never be built on, preserving openness, privacy, and ocean views. Inside, the scale of the residence is clear the moment you enter. There are great ocean views from both floors of the house. Wide rooms and two distinct living rooms (both featuring new wide screen TV’s) create separate zones for gathering, work, media, or multigenerational living. The home benefits from upgraded flooring, cabinets, countertops, lighting and outlets for practical, day-to-day function. Brand new carpet in the bedrooms adds a clean, updated feel. The dining area is a standout feature with amazing ocean views! The kitchen was also fully remodeled in 2021 and has been tastefully updated providing a very functional central hub for daily living. The downstairs bedroom also offers meaningful flexibility—it can serve as a second primary suite, a guest suite, or a home office, depending on the owner’s needs. The private backyard includes a spacious hobby/work shop shed suitable for tools, storage, surf gear, or project space. One of the very few approved by the Association! An outdoor BBQ area and usable yard extend the living footprint and support relaxed, low-maintenance outdoor time. Practical improvements include an owned thirty-five-panel solar array with Tesla battery backup, an 8,500-watt direct plug-in generator, new central air conditioning, a new water heater, and Starlink satellite internet for fast, reliable connectivity. An oversized two-car garage and a dedicated laundry room add to everyday convenience. The home comes furnished and totally turn-key with all the essentials needed to move in and start living right down to the mower and edger. The surrounding community is known for long-term residents, multigenerational stability, and a quiet, comfortable environment that people live in for decades. The large park across the street effectively serves as an extension of the property, offering space for walking, exercise, kids, dogs, and evening gatherings. The location of this home is a quick walk to Kahana beach and S-Turns Beach Park with the best surf breaks on West Maui. Along the way, you will find the shops at Kahana Manor & Gateway with amazing restaurants (MisoPhat – Best Sushi and Dollies – Best Pizza) and other services (FHB & Bank of Hawaii) and The Club Maui (the only real gym on West Maui) VERY close by. Two highly regarded schools (Maui Prep & Kam III) are located within a mile, and Kahana Ridge is widely considered one of the most family friendly neighborhoods in West Maui. Low property taxes and a low HOA strengthen the long-term affordability of the home. Supported by a very well-executed remodel, a generous and adaptable floor plan, a quiet cul-de-sac address, and a rare park-front location just a short walk from the ocean, 12 Areca Place is now one of the best value plays on the entire West Side. The recent price reduction pushes it firmly ahead of the competition in one of Maui’s most established and truly family-friendly neighborhoods. Hurry, at one of the lowest price per square foot offerings in West Maui – it won’t last long!
