Punchbowl Vista is one of the most interesting
Honolulu condos you'll come across. That's because it's made up of 2 buildings. 1 a modern style walk-up, built in 1962 and 1 a craftsman style residence from 1922. More than a contrast in styles, it's a contrast in eras here.
Here's the rundown of each:
Craftsman Style / Upper Building
4 condos – Downstairs are 2 Studio/1BA (474 or 498 sq ft). Upstairs is a 1BR/1BA (794 sq ft) and a 2BR/1BA (1122 sq ft). The larger upstairs units do not have lanais, yet downstairs the Studios each have huge 255 sq ft decks that add significant space outside.
Modern/Lower Building
8 condos – The ground level is used for parking, the upper 2 stories holding units that are all 1BR/1BA, with either 411 or 450 sq ft inside and lanais that extend outside to add another 37 or 84 sq ft.
From the outdoor spaces your views are better than you'd have from a normal low-rise, because of the raised ground both structures sit on, not far from the base of Punchbowl. That lift brings a wide angle vista of the city to you, including the night lights, as well as Diamond Head's long, unmistakable profile.
Despite that feel of being far from the rapidly
developing core of Honolulu, you can still be onto H1W from this address in a very few minutes using the Lunalilo St entrance. H1E will require a little more time, but it's still close by and a convenience you'll appreciate.
Commuters can get to Downtown in as little as 8 or 9 minutes, making what most people on Oahu dread a breeze for you.
The kids' commute is even breezier. They can stroll up the way to both
Stevenson Middle and
Roosevelt High Schools without any trouble, taking them about 10 minutes either way.
Whichever your preference, Modern or Craftsman Style, there's a home here to fit your style. It's a unique experience living in such a side-by-side study of opposites that somehow end up complementing each other.
