Don Ho’s Hawaii Home!
Don Ho's Hawaii Home!
"Tiny bubbles", . . Remember? Crooner Don Ho put Hawaiian music on the map with his mellow voice, flowery aloha shirts and songs that shared the spirit of the Islands. Having returned to help his mother run her small Kaneohe bar after a long military career, he hadn't anticipated one day being a popular recording and TV star. But from Kaneohe to Waikiki his popularity grew. He was known for honoring the military in the audience and many times would call them to the stage to join him. Father of 10 children and married twice, this Diamond Head home is where he raised them with their mothers. Don died from
heart failure in 2007 and his estate has been in limbo due to numerous management conflicts and legal problems, but the home is now offered for sale.
Comprised of 6,240sf, 4 BR and 4BA and within walking distance of Waikiki and Kapiolani Park, the location of this home in the sought after Diamond Head neighborhood can't be beat. With huge indoor and outdoor livings spaces and great bones, it's a renovator's dream come true. Adding glass walls and redoing surface finishes with kitchen and bath updates would bring this dramatic home into the 21st Century, making it exceptional once again. We're especially taken with the huge terraces on three levels and views of Honolulu and the ocean from the roof terrace would make magical areas for entertaining.
Come experience Aloha in this home loaded with potential and priced at only $3m.
