Corner 1st Floor Keala O Wailea Villa Sold by the Sayles Team

Move in Ready: Keala O Wailea 40

We are proud to have represented our 2nd resale transaction in the Keala O Wailea community and were pleased to bring a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, and 1300+ sqft unit to market in the middle of June. We held the list priced firm throughout its entire time and were happy to have stuck to our guns. Part of the reason we were able to command a strong list price was the units location. Building #4 is arguably one of the best buildings in Keala O Wailea as it is closest to the pool and community club house area. Having the back lanai right off of the pool creates nice buffer before coming in the house soaking wet.

A perk of a ground floor unit is the 240 sqft lanai that is just off of the main living area. From the lanai are wide open views over Wailea and beyond towards West Maui and the pacific ocean. The 2 sliding glass doors off of the main living area perfectly frame the ocean views and blurs the lines between indoor/outdoor living. Developed by Armstrong Builders, the level of craftsmanship is excellent as the high energy-efficient stainless steel appliances in the kitchen and the white cabinetry complement the clean and contemporary design.

After a 6 week escrow, we are happy to have sold our clients property for 98% of list price and close for $1,557,500.

On-site amenities at Keala O Wailea include an impressive community center along with epic views of the Wailea coastline. There’s a brand new exercise room on-site, along with a spacious pool, and a covered pavilion area. The fully equipped community kitchen area and barbecue facilities are the perfect place for entertaining your friends and family.

Nearby are all of Wailea’s many resort amenities, including first-class restaurants, 3 championship golf courses, tennis facilities, and miles of white sandy beaches and ocean recreation.
