Kailua’s beauty, cultural heritage, and pristine white-sand beaches are the dramatic backdrop to the largest private residential lot on Kailua’s beachfront, the Mele Komo beachfront estate.

Sitting on 2.2 scenic oceanfront acres, 508 N Kalaheo Avenue is a private compound perfect for a permanent residence. Between the secluded comfort of Kailua luxury real estate and the instant access to the pristine beach, it offers privacy and convenience in equal measure.

This is the only property of this scale in an area where $26 million buys a fraction of this much land and amenities — making this listing at $50 million for this private Hawaiian compound estate the perfect fit for the right owner on the lookout for a unicorn property.

Here’s a closer look.

Designed in 2014 by esteemed architect Jeff Long, the estate comprises two primary residences, each boasting more than 6,000 square feet of interior space plus multiple lanais. The 2,000-square-foot poolside cabana is perfect for waterfront hosting and is equipped with a gorgeous kitchen. The property features 12 bedrooms, 13 full baths, and 2 half baths in a restrained, close-to-nature design.

The beachside rooms draw your attention to a stupendous view of the Kailua oceanscape. Complemented by sapele mahogany, imported marble, and travertine staircases, every element of this stunning estate contributes to a calm indoor environment ideal for an oceanfront retreat.

Having both space for those closest to you and a place to retreat into solitude is the dream of a beachfront estate in Hawaii.

The compound’s 9 ocean-facing bedrooms and 11 private lanais bring your family and guests close together while also providing the freedom and flexibility for time apart. Everyone will enjoy ensuite bathrooms, retreat spaces, and views of the sunrise over the Mokulua Islands.

A focal point is the 96,000-gallon lagoon-style pool, featuring a sumptuous waterfall and grotto as well as a slide and jacuzzi, providing ample room and comfort, with a bath, loft, laundry, and full kitchen in the pool’s cabana for extra comfort.

This ties the property together as a resort-level lifestyle locale where everyone important in your life can make treasured memories.

Energy Autonomy Brings Resilience and Luxury

With 94 photovoltaic solar panels, the Mele Komo estate uses renewable energy to power the security, central AC, lighting, and many other features on-site, reducing carbon footprint while keeping the estate running smoothly — just one more way Mele Komo quiets the mind and keeps you present.

Proximity to Hawaii’s Delightful Kailua Town

You’ll feel worlds away while enjoying life at Mele Komo without going far for modern comforts and community amenities.

Kailua Town’s boutiques, cafes, and farmers’ markets are a nice or short drive away. You can relax at Lanikai Beach and Kalama Beach Park or get some exercise on the Pillbox Hike. With excellent schools and a well-established community, the area is a wonderful place to put down roots amidst the island rhythms.
