About 5370-a Kahiliholo Rd
Perched on the rim 500 feet above the Kalihiwai River Valley, this extraordinary property offers panoramic views of sunsets, waterfalls, and the winding Kalihiwai River, framed by the Namahana, Wai’ale’ale and Hanalei mountain ranges. Opportunities to own a property of this caliber—elevation, privacy, and unobstructed vistas—are exceedingly rare.
Stunning and breathtaking only begin to describe the ever-changing scenery from this remarkable vantage point. From the soothing sounds of the river below, to the mountains, to golden skies at dusk, the landscape delivers a daily display of Kauai’s natural beauty. A profound sense of peace and connection to nature defines this special property—one that must be experienced to be fully appreciated.
Thoughtfully renovated, the permitted barn has long served as a comfortable, inviting, and functional residence. With over 3,000 square feet under roof, the home reflects craftsmanship, refined design, and quality throughout. Guided by one of Kauai’s most renowned architects, the residence showcases board-and-batten woodwork, open-beam ceilings, custom cabinetry, and carefully selected finishes that create a warm, elegant interior. Flooring includes Indoteak, porcelain tile, and colored concrete. Additional features include Simpson solid wood doors, Coastal Windows, high-quality lighting, GE Monogram appliances, and an outdoor shower with mountain views.
This property offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the existing residence as is while planning a custom dream home closer to the rim. The private 5.6-acre parcel is wider and larger than most rim properties and has been professionally graded for drainage and beautifully landscaped with ornamental flowerbeds, mature Lipstick Palms, Shower Trees, Rainbow Eucalyptus, and fruit trees.
With entitlements for a custom main residence and guest house, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create a legacy estate overlooking one of Kauai’s most breathtaking landscapes.
