Honolulu condos that doesn't have a weight restriction for your furry family member. Sold yet? There's still more to know.
You live a block and a ½ below the very face of Punchbowl on the ascending climb upward from where Blaisdell and Straub Hospital sit off of Ward Ave. Though you live on a perch above the city, Emerson Plaza isn't a towering structure.
This is a walk-up building, with 3 residential floors and the ground floor utilized for parking. The 12 units divide up into 9 1BR/1BA (540 sq ft) and 3 2BR/1BA (720 sq ft). Those dimensions grow with lanai spaces of 72 to the smaller layout and 96 sq ft on the larger.
Your views extend across the city and its calming lights at night on up to Punchbowl's proud face that has looked over Honolulu for thousands of years. Your lanai is on the cooler mauka side, protecting you fully from the afternoon sun, which can be punishing. You also get a break in your commute.
Downtown is a few minutes at most by car and you have bus stops on Ward Ave one block from home. Ward Ave also provides the entrance to H1E just down the street, so you're hitting the fast lane in a couple of minutes. H1W's on-ramp from Punchbowl is close by, too. You've got easy access no matter where you're going on
Oahu.
Back home, one thing that will surprise many in a smaller condo building like Emerson Plaza is that there's no community laundry. Washer/Dryers are in-home for you. No loading the clothes up and down the stairs.
It's important to realize also that the residences are a mix of Leasehold and Fee Simple, the lease expiring in 2035. The fee may be available, so that possibility should be factored into your purchase here.
Living up on this hill you have the city spread out before you, but a smaller town feel once you step out on your lanai. One more special touch that comes with life at Emerson Plaza.
