DescriptionPresenting "Wei Lan Tien", or "House of Blue Heaven", an iconic Diamond Head ocean view luxury haven. Originally developed in 1931 by famed architect Hart Wood (Architect of Honolulu Hale, A&B Building) & later fully remodeled by Jeff Long in 1995, this 4-bedroom, 5.5-bath, 6,594 sq.ft. Asian-Western estate's appearance has been preserved yet modernized for today's lifestyle in luxury. Retaining many of its original features including "Moon Gate" doors, Japanese gable roof-line, and the grand living room's wood-beam and paneled ceiling, historic charm is blended flawlessly with upscale, contemporary refinement. Situated on 11,752 sq.ft. of land on the southern slopes of Diamond Head's Makalei Place, one of Honolulu's most precious & prestigious "who's who" luxury neighborhoods, this unforgettable majestic ocean retreat is perfectly positioned minutes from Kahala, Waikiki, Ala Moana & Kaka`ako, the ideal location to enjoy the island's best water sports, dining, shopping, entertainment & more. Without compromise, this is paradise, found!
