The home sits at the base of the Waiahola Forest Reserve on a 13,500-square-foot lot with ocean views beyond Swanzy Beach Park.
The main house has one bedroom, 1.5 bathrooms, a loft and a den. The master suite is separated by a wrap around deck. The garden is illuminated and filled with tropical flora.

More than100 people have looked at the Kaaawa home since it was listed, according to Young. The pending buyer is a local family.
The home was built in 1964. Lee, who purchased it in late 1992, spent more than $100,000 on renovations, said Young.
The actor is in Romania filming two motion pictures.
