Estate of the Week: Oahu

Sotheby’s International Realty never seizes to amaze us with their constant up-to-date luxury properties. They have listings across the world that range anywhere from $1 million to $35 million. When it comes to high end realty, no questions asked, they blow others out of the water.

We were recently introduced to one of their newer properties. Located on the foot of Diamond Head, Oahu, this newly built single-family beachfront estate is a design of traditional Hawaiian lifestyle. The three-bedroom home features three and one-half bathrooms, hardwood flooring, hot tub and spa, but the exquisite part about the property is the view. Located directly on the water, the home was designed to offer ocean and sunset views from its expansive lanais and living areas.

The estate is listed for $8.8 million and can be found here
