Kauai New Real Estate Development

I was visiting the Pili Mai Showroom today talking with Jason Hodge, the Vice President of Sales for Brookfield. We discussed the Kiahuna Golf Club renovation that is being proposed and I took the time to congratulate them on securing their building permits! The first building at Pili Mai will be going verticle real soon and there is an increased level of activity in the nieghborhood as they prep the site. How exciting for all those who have been waiting patiently for their new home to get built. The whole sales team seems to have taken a big breath of fresh air. With the upgrading of the course and the expanded club services right next door, Pili Mai becomes a very attractive bit of Poipu real estate standing along the first fairway. If you have never strolled out there do it around the sunset hour. It is really a magical spot. The sun dips, the birds start flying in patterns returning to their evening roosts, the odd Nene goose family often can been seen toddling over the fairways. It is a placid sight to behold and one can just imagine an elegant lanai with a dinner getting ready to set. Home should be a peaceful place to savor life’s many blessings at the end of a busy day. Feel free to post your request or visit my office for the latest in Pili Mai offerings. The new flurry of activity will begin there as the snow birds arrive this month…..oh yes….Happy New Year by the way.

In spite of all the development focus down on the south side, I was able to venture a bit further north east and enjoyed the opportunity to tour Kealanani, a newly released agricultural development on the mauka lands of Kealia. Comprised of approximately 2000 acres this multiphased project respresents a model in agricultural development for Kauai. Its not just about developing and selling land. This project reflects the very essence and purpose of both county and state land use intention. Those considering a purchase here will have to seriously embrace an agricultural venture. For the experienced farmer, they will find the infrastructure to facilitate the productivity of their land. For the novice, the development structure accomodates larger community agriculture operations that will function in a quasi cooperative way. As we toured the property I saw a large taro operation well under way with a large planting being tended and expanded in the lower lands on the makai end. I saw over 4000 hybrid tea seedlings in a propogation nursery which represents the beginnings of a new ag industry here. Paul Kyno, project manager and broker for sales, related that one purchaser will be looking into a very large equestrian facility on a 100 acre parcel at the mauka end of the development. With riding trails throughout the lands as well as the upgrading of the rodeo ring near the projects entry, equestrian enthusiasts will find a haven at Kealanani and will have a competitive venue right at their doorstep that will be upgraded to accomodate sanctioned rodeo and other equestrian competition! New development in the real old style! Well done and very exciting! Email me to arrange a tour and we can meet at my Kapaa office and go from there!
