The Kaanapali Coffee Farms homes for sale are situated on parcels of land ranging in size from approximately 4 to 7 acres. Developed by Kaanapali Land Management Corporation, this residential community will encompass some 58 homesites scattered across a roughly 336-acre arabica coffee plantation. Every parcel sets aside roughly an acre of designated land for residential and personal use.
A division of Pioneer Mill Company reportedly cultivated the site between 1988 and 2001. In 2003, James Falconer established MauiGrown Coffee, Inc. The company re-opened the coffee plantation and today it uses the land in Kaanapali to raise Hawaiian coffee beans for the specialty coffee marketplace in a joint venture with Kaanapali Land Management. Developers released the first sites for sale here in 2015.
Maui real estate buyers discover both luxury re-sale homes and undeveloped residential lots for sale in this gated agricultural subdivision. Hawaii Water Service supplies drinking water to the homes in this location. The development presently extends between Aina Mah'ai Street, Aina Mah'ai Place, Oka Kope Street, and Oka Kope Road, encompassing both paved and unpaved roadways. It lies roughly 300 to 500 feet above the coastal Kaanapali Resort on West Maui.
The luxury homes comprising the Kaanapali Coffee Farms neighborhood utilize a variety of different floor plans. A number of three and four-bedroom homes with multiple baths nestle within the coffee fields.
Due to the agricultural zoning, some parcels enable buyers to construct ohanas, or guest cottages, on their grounds, together with outbuildings. Homeowners in the subdivision enjoy the option of using their residential acre to install backyard gardens and orchards. However, the bulk of each parcel supports coffee production.
During most of the year, this innovative development offers a higher degree of privacy than many conventional subdivisions. Coffee fields separate these rural homesites. Residents belong to a Kaanapali Lot Owners Association. It collects monthly fees.
The development aspires to establish a sustainable agricultural development model for integrating residential and farming land uses. Revenues generated by coffee harvests help maintain the farming operations.
Any revenues received in excess of these sums potentially offset lot owners association costs for shared facilities (such as maintaining gated entrances and community roadways).
Buyers choosing land for sale in Kaanapali in this location still enjoy close proximity to West Maui's numerous recreational attractions. World-famous Kaanapali Beach and excellent golf courses draw many visitors to the vibrant Kaanapali Area. Resorts, specialty boutiques, and fine restaurants all lie within a short drive of these luxury homes.
Today, some residential settings in West Maui lack extensive grounds. Residents of Kaanapali Coffee Farms maintain spacious homesites for this region. They enjoy a great opportunity to develop backyard gardens and home orchards.
Since the release of the first properties here in 2015, some houses and cottages have reached the resale marketplace. Buyers also discover available homesites at Kaanapali Coffee Farms from time to time. Houses and ohanas tend to command higher prices than lots alone.
Recently, several homes in this neighborhood sold for prices of well over $2 million. A variety of factors enter into the value of specific parcels within the subdivision. Maui real estate buyers find many reasons to consider these beautiful luxury homes near the acclaimed Kaanapali Resort
