Description
WOW is the word to describe the ocean views from this corner-condo unit at Tropic Seas in the Gold Coast of Honolulu, on the quiet side of Waikiki. The folding, glass wall on the unit’s oceanside can all slide into one corner for a spectacular, and panoramic views from the living area, kitchen, and main ensuite bedroom. Tastefully remodeled with attention to detail, enjoy island living with high-end cabinets and granite countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms, Toto Washlets, bathroom mirrors with built-in LED lights, hot/cold water dispenser by the kitchen sink, lots of cabinets throughout for organization, and natural stone tile flooring. Modified from a 2-bedroom to have an open concept living area, the unit has a remote-controlled Zoom-Bed, equipped with a built-in folding desk, where the second bedroom used to be. Some windows have remote-controlled sun shades for privacy. Across the street from Kapiolani Park, near Diamond Head, this move-in ready unit is a must see. One or more photos have been enhanced. Tropic Seas is a cooperative apartment corporation. Ownership is by shares of the corporation's stock with occupancy through the assignment of the proprietary lease.
