About this home
Tucked just off coveted Polipoli Road in Kula, this remarkable Upcountry estate is a rare blend of artistic legacy, architectural pedigree, and timeless Maui beauty. Once home to celebrated Hawai‘i artist and educator Richard “Dick” L. Nelson — creator of the renowned Tri-Hue watercolor technique the property reflects a life inspired by creativity, tranquility, and the extraordinary natural surroundings of Upcountry Maui. Designed in collaboration with distinguished mid-century architect Edward Sullam, a protégé of legendary architect Vladimir Ossipoff and architect of the original Shops at Wailea, the residence was thoughtfully positioned to embrace breathtaking bi-coastal views stretching from mountain to ocean. A charming one-bedroom cottage welcomes you near the entry, while the main residence sits gracefully atop the property, capturing panoramic vistas, golden sunsets, and the peaceful ambiance that makes Kula one of Maui’s most treasured communities. The home showcases quality construction and timeless architectural design with expansive windows, skylights, and abundant natural light throughout. Rich character and warmth are felt in every space. One of the three bedrooms served as Dick Nelson’s private art studio and features its own separate entrance, creating endless possibilities for a creative retreat, guest suite, family room, home office, or private sanctuary. The spacious primary suite offers two walk-in closets and easy access to a beautifully appointed bath with dual vanities, walk-in shower, and heated towel bar. The additional bedroom is ideal for guests, or flexible work-from-home living. The kitchen features koa-accented cabinetry, updated built-in appliances, and stainless-steel refrigeration, blending island character with everyday functionality. The open plan living/dining/kitchen features a wood burning fireplace, vaulted wood ceiling, built in credenza and a front viewing deck perfect for drinks at sunset. A two-car garage with loft storage adds convenience and practicality. Located in the heart of Kula, this exceptional property offers the coveted Upcountry lifestyle — cool evenings, scenic paths, and close proximity to beloved local destinations including Grandma’s Coffee House, Kula Bistro, the Kula Market, Haleakala Waldorf School, and Kula Elementary. Nearby attractions such as the Lavender Farm, Strawberry Farm, and Ulupalakua Ranch & Winery complete the idyllic Maui experience. Rarely does a property combine such artistic provenance, architectural significance, and awe-inspiring beauty. This is more than a home, it is a legacy property where inspiration, serenity, and Maui’s finest views come together in perfect harmony....
