450 Laulea Pl, Paia, HI 96779

Laulea is often translated as “peace and friendship,” which feels particularly appropriate for one of Spreckelsville’s most desirable private roads. Set on just under one-third of an acre, this inviting house and cottage property captures the relaxed character of Maui’s North Shore. The two-bedroom, two-bath main home was completely rebuilt in 1996 with style, warmth, and distinctive details, including seashell relief work, bamboo accents, and ohia posts. Skylights, open-truss ceilings, and an open kitchen and living area fill the home with natural light, while two spacious covered lanais extend the living space outdoors and create inviting settings for dining, relaxing, and gathering with friends. Built in 2005, the elevated cottage has its own Balinese-inspired character, with merbau wood and travertine floors, vaulted ceilings, Venetian plaster, and thoughtful architectural touches throughout. A flexible bonus space below the cottage provides additional room for a home office, gym, studio, storage, or other uses. The lovely backyard and two outdoor showers are perfectly suited to life near the beach. Multiple beaches and surf spots are nearby, along with Maui Country Club, Kaunoa Senior Center, Pa?ia, and convenient access to OGG, Whole Foods, and Costco. Peaceful, private, and full of personality, this is a special little compound in one of the North Shore’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
