There is a freedom that comes with having enough land to think beyond the home itself. Lot 1, encompassing approx. 25 acres, looks out across an extraordinary stretch of Maui, with panoramic Ocean, North Shore, West Maui Mountain, South Shore and Neighbor Island views. Haleakala completes the panorama above the property, giving Lot 1 a sense of openness in nearly every direction. At approximately 2,300 feet elevation, warm Upcountry days transition into cooler evenings in Kula, while gentle trade winds and a temperate climate have long supported both comfortable year-round living and productive agriculture. It is a setting defined as much by how it feels as by what the land makes possible. What distinguishes this parcel is not simply what surrounds it, but the land itself. Unlike many Upcountry properties where acreage can be constrained by steep terrain or limited areas for development, these 25 acres are remarkably usable. The gently contoured landscape creates flexibility for a private estate, agricultural pursuits, guest accommodations, or a combination of uses designed around the land and its surroundings. That flexibility defines Kula I'O, an established, 236 acre, gated agricultural community, with parcels ranging from approximately 2.5 to 25 acres, offering thoughtfully planned view corridors, private infrastructure, and substantial residences already built. A private well system supplies two 60,000-gallon potable water tanks, and a 1.6-million-gallon agricultural reservoir, supporting the community’s agricultural use. Each parcel is served by both potable and agricultural ¾” water meters, with additional County of Maui water service supporting the subdivision’s common areas. With essential infrastructure already established, including underground electric and cable access, ownership begins further along than most vacant land opportunities. The CPR process is also allowed at Kula I’O. The location also places everyday Upcountry conveniences within easy reach. Makawao is just minutes away, along with nearby schools, restaurants, a community center, post office, hardware store, gas station and fire station. Maui Memorial Medical Center, Kahului Airport, Wailuku and Maui’s beaches are also within convenient driving distance, creating a balance between a private Upcountry setting and access to all that Maui has to offer. The Canvass is Exceptional the Rest is Yours.
