luxury house with pool for sale Wainiha, United States

Anini Vista is a private enclave located on the coveted North Shore of Kauai, where privacy, refinement and forever views are the common denominator. This gated estate, with its picturesque bluff location, was the vision of architect Gary Tobey who embraced the concept of a home without walls. Your introduction to the home is over the tropical water gardens and courtyard where you then enter by way of the pivot door where walls of glass open to the incomparable vistas of sunrise over the Pacific below. *Anchored by a central great room with soaring ceilings, the 4 Bedroom, 4.5 Bath home sits on over an acre of manicured grounds. *The heart of the house includes gracious living and dining rooms with vaulted ceilings that present as modern, muted elegance; afromosia and travertine floors set the palette for this calming room. *The kitchen, filled with natural light, has stainless appliances, leathered granite, a cozy seating area and is both functional and well appointed. *Each of the two, grand primary bedrooms are accessed through floor-to-ceiling glass hallways with expansive views of ocean, sky and natures bounty. Located at opposite ends of the home, each affords privacy, oversized ensuite bathrooms and did I mention views? *The bathrooms boast Rainforest granite and large scale travertine which speak to the seamless integration of an indoor to outdoor lifestyle plus a bonus outdoor shower garden. *Two tasteful, detached ohanas, with ensuite bathrooms and outdoor showers, mirror the simple elegance of the main house.

Experience the true essence of tropical living. On the North Shore of Kauai, above picturesque Anini Beach, lies Anini Vista. It is here, where acclaimed Italian architect Gianni Francione heralded innovative tropical design, allowing for the environment to take center stage. On three acres, flush with opulent landscaping that includes plumeria, bromeliads and exotic orchids in trees, is the backdrop for an avant-garde architectural creation that fuses the unorthodox use of materials with a modern aesthetic. Having spent decades in Bali, the architect envisioned this home where refined sensibilities and an urbane tone meets functionality. The stunning home invites the outdoors in. The edgy design will beckon fans of modernism in architecture but it will appeal to those who appreciate the unusual and noteworthy. The seascape stretches to the historic Kilaeau Lighthouse and can be experienced from most rooms in the home. Across the sweeping lawn, the weeping wall, iridescent pool and thatch roofed hale remind you that your mission is to relax.
