Listed at $30 million, the property is the most expensive on Kauai.
It is located on the south shore of the island, bordering the Allerton National Tropical Botanical Garden, just east of Lawai Bay and Ka Lae O Kaiwa Beach.
The north shore is an area popular with tourists and public figures, including Carlos Santana and Sylvester Stallone, who own beachfront villas there, while the south shore is more low-key and considered the 'sunny side up'.
Kauai's only commercial airport is in Lihue, 20 minutes away.
Designed by architect Paul Wuesthoff in the late 1990s, the residence showcases sweeping ocean and sunset views.
Wuesthoff has also designed cinemas and modernist homes in California, Hawaii and the South West.
About 40 years ago the owners bought these two beautiful plots of three-quarters of an acre.
In 1997 they tore down a cottage and custom built this three bedroom, three and a half bathroom home.
It has a chef's kitchen and a spacious lanai. Two of the bedrooms are en-suite and are perfect for entertaining guests.
The property has multiple pavilions and is a rare licensed holiday home.
"It's hard to find a home like this these days," says John C. Ferry, listing agent for Bali Hai Real Estate." This property is a no-brainer. Otherwise, you'd have to be in a resort area, like Princeville."
It's also a legacy property, as it has been in the family for several generations. In the last 150 years there have only been four owners.
The main selling point is the amazing sea frontage, with a private beach and tidal pools.
"It's remarkable to have 350 feet of waterfront on Kauai or anywhere else in the world," Ferry said.
