This slice of South Pacific promontory paradise surfaced on the open market this spring courtesy of links legend Vijay Singh. The plantation-esque estate, which spans 52 acres in all, is priced at $23 million.
The property occupies a bluff overlooking the Hamakua Coast on the Big Island, and is crowned by a lavish 9,500 sq. ft. two-story home containing five bedrooms and seven baths. The house is preceded by a long, palm-flanked driveway, a suitably romantic, secluded and serene preamble to the living style.
The home’s arched, double-door entry is clad in stone, and it gives way to a foyer floored in incredibly warm and beautifully contrasted plank hardwood. Amenities include an elevator, a large gourmet kitchen, and a 2,800 sq. ft. second-level master suite with a lanai.
The grounds are perhaps the real story here, though. There are golf greens amid the massive carpet of groomed lawn, of course, but also a mile of beachfront, an orchard of citrus, avocado, and macadamia trees, a deep water well and solar array — which collectively and entirely handle the property’s water and power needs — and a 1-and-1 guest accommodation.
