85 Walaka Street

85 Walaka St, Kihei, HI 96753

85 Walaka Street is a small, self-managed building tucked a couple of blocks inland from South Kihei Road, eleven units total since it was built in 1979. Every home is the same one-bedroom, one-bath layout at 443 square feet, a uniform, no-frills setup that keeps the building simple to run and easy to understand as a buyer.

There's no amenity package here beyond the units themselves. It's not an oceanfront address, though the upstairs units pick up a partial ocean glimpse, and pets are allowed, a rarity among Kihei's older buildings. Vacation rental isn't permitted, so this is a straightforward long-term residential building, fee simple, well suited to buyers who want an affordable, low-maintenance Kihei foothold rather than a rental property.
