All three bedrooms sit upstairs, separated from the living level and quiet. The primary suite has its own lanai directly over the golf course, a soaking tub, dual vanities, and a shower finished with water-repelling glass. The finishes throughout set this unit apart from anything else currently available at Waikoloa Colony Villas. Premium fit and finish, curated high-end artwork conveyed with the property, and a brand new central air conditioning system installed 3 years ago. Two lanais, and every detail considered. The unit is offered turnkey furnished and is ready for immediate occupancy, second-home use, or short-term vacation rental income. The owner chose not to use this as a rental often and so there is very little wear and tear on this unit - it's in great shape. Ownership includes an attached one-car garage and a deeded second parking stall. Waikoloa Colony Villas is a gated community with two pools, a whirlpool spa, fitness center, tennis, and a clubhouse. Anaeho'omalu Bay is half a mile out, Kings Shops and Queens MarketPlace about a mile away, with championship golf and Kohala Coast resort dining surrounding the property.
