This one-of-a-kind property is remarkable in many ways.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">First, there is the home itself. Over 6,600 sq ft of interior space is finished with modern, bespoke materials that whisper refined luxury. The 4-car garage and massive outdoor living area, known as a Lanai in Hawaii, add another 3,000 sq ft of covered space to the property. The primary wing of the home offers the owners a spacious retreat where comforts abound.\u00a0 The primary suite includes two full bathrooms with two full-sized walk-in closets, one with a steam shower, one with a tub, both with outdoor showers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The guest wing of the home includes the gym, billiards and entertainment room, and 4 ensuite guest bedrooms, 3 of which have outdoor showers. All rooms offer easy access to the 70ft-wide resort-style pool and 12ft-wide hot tub, which are complemented by a fully equipped outdoor kitchen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-132830\" src=\"https:\/\/evertise.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/8-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evertise.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/8-1.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/evertise.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/8-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/evertise.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/8-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/evertise.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/8-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/evertise.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/8-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As beautiful as the home is, it&#8217;s possible to overlook the view.

Due to its sacred nature, 18 of the 25-acre property&#8217;s acres are conservation land under a conservation easement. This conservation easement protects the unique land from further development and provides the appropriate space and privacy for a home of this caliber. Owners can plant \u2018Canoe Plants\u2019 in the conservation area.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/puho\/learn\/nature\/upload\/Plant-ID-508.pdf\"  rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Canoe Plants<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> are the original 24 plants that were brought to Hawaii by Polynesian voyagers when the islands were first settled several centuries ago. Some of these include taro, banana, coconut, bamboo, ulu (breadfruit), and many other beautiful flora.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Residence at 426 Wailau | INCREDIBLE Launiupoko Home For Sale on Maui | $12,000,000\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8t6X5J5Yh0c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The area of Launiupoko is a special area on Maui.
