HOLUALOA, Hawaii, October 13, 2026. Marco A. Silva of Coldwell Banker Island Properties, part of the Coldwell Banker Global Luxury network, has announced a price improvement on Hale Lauleʻa, the “House of Peace,” a one-of-a-kind architect-designed estate in the upcountry coffee belt above Kailua-Kona. The 1.25-acre Holualoa property is now offered at $3,150,000, reduced from $3,400,000.
Designed by architect Carey Smoots and, as noted in the listing, showcased in Architectural Digest, Hale Lauleʻa is composed of three private pods connected by open breezeways and surrounded by lush tropical grounds. Soaring rooflines, ohia posts, and cathedral ceilings frame sweeping views of the ocean, the sunset horizon, and the forested slopes, allowing the home to live far larger than its footprint.
A decade of thoughtful updates has made the estate move-in ready. The resort-style pool has been upgraded with a high-efficiency pump, solar heating, a saltwater system, and automated chemical monitoring. Each pod has been refreshed with new flooring, high-efficiency ceiling fans, LED lighting, and fresh paint, while the primary suite features custom tile work, a reworked shower, and a new soaking tub.
Beyond the main living spaces, a separate office above the garage and a greenhouse with museum-grade lighting, built-in cabinetry, a Murphy bed, and a private lanai offer flexible use as an artist’s studio, guest retreat, or creative haven. Modern comforts include an EV charging station, owned photovoltaic solar panels, solar hot water, and a whole-property WiFi system.
The grounds reflect the estate’s place in Holualoa coffee country: mature white pineapple and producing coffee trees tended by a caretaker, alongside avocado, banana, and citrus. A stone-accented entry gate and a new greenhouse complete the sanctuary.
“Hale Lauleʻa is an experience, not just a home,” said Marco A. Silva, who specializes in exceptional homes and estates across the Big Island. “The new price opens this estate to a wider circle of Buyers who want something singular and deeply rooted in place.”
The estate was featured in Modern Luxury Hawaii in July 2026 and on the cover of Homes & Land of Hawaii, The Big Island. A cinematic estate film is available on the Marco In Kona YouTube channel.
Hale Lauleʻa is offered at $3,150,000 (MLS 730935). Full media and private showings are available through the listing agent. For information, contact Marco A.
