Pat Benatar’s retreat in Hawaii was only on the market for a few months before it sold. The modest Maui estate fetched $3.1 million for the rock-n-roller and her husband, guitarist—and stage partner—Neil Giraldo. The couple had initially listed the property at $3.6 million before reducing to $3.2 million.

The couple purchased the property in 2000, and had the home custom built on the one acre parcel. The land abuts dramatically jagged cliffs on the eastern coast of Maui, and is situated in Pu’uiki, a moderately populated area of the island.

The residence measures about 3,300 square feet, and contains two bedrooms and 2.5 baths. It is designed something like a clapboard tropical bungalow, with vaulted, often open-trussed ceilings, abundant interior-exterior flow, and a pleasingly easygoing, rambling layout.

Floors are tile, and lighting is generally recessed or functionally modern, although a few lantern sconces may be noted. Shiplap, a bit of granite, a little subway tile, and a lot of whitewash; the home’s sense of light and space embodies its atmosphere.

There are few distractions from the loveliness of the landscape and the setting. Most striking, perhaps, is the rock-wall outdoor shower, which enhances the naturalistic appeal, and the second-floor terrace.

A garage is placed amid the property’s lush lawns and palms, and has a second floor currently in use as a fitness room; it also features a second floor terrace.

Pat Benatar’s memoir, ‘Between a Heart and a Rock Place’ examines her life as an icon of rock and a feminist figurehead. She and Giraldo are currently touring and performing throughout the country.
