Property Description
For those who value privacy, peace, and a life removed from the busy pace of life, 2480 Upper Kanaio Road offers a rare opportunity to embrace the quiet beauty of Kanaio. Set on approximately 4 acres with expansive ocean views, this private gated property features a remodeled main residence, detached cottage, and a flexible lower-level living area—creating space for family, guests, extended living, or a private retreat. The main home is currently configured with two bedrooms on the primary level, while the lower level functions as a one-bedroom mother-in-law quarters with its own living space and breathtaking ocean views. A detached one-bedroom cottage with loft has also been partially remodeled as of July 2026, offering additional accommodations or creative space. Both residences enjoy sweeping views toward the Pacific and the surrounding natural landscape. Designed for comfortable island living, the main home features a tankless water heater, 33 photovoltaic panels with three Tesla Powerwall batteries, newer kitchen appliances, and thoughtful remodeling throughout. Electric and County water already hooked up. Separate private gated entry provides added privacy for both the main residence and the mother-in-law quarters. Here, the rewards are found beyond the walls of the home: quiet mornings, dramatic ocean horizons, cool trade winds, brilliant sunsets, and star-filled nights far removed from the distractions of urban life. Kanaio offers a rare sense of space and simplicity—where the pace slows, the landscape takes center stage, and the days are measured by nature rather than a schedule. For the buyer seeking something different—privacy over proximity, tranquility over traffic, and the authentic simplicity of rural Maui—this is an opportunity to create your own private sanctuary in one of the island’s most peaceful settings.
