A breathtaking oceanfront retreat on Oahu’s North Shore has just hit the market for almost $10million.
The rare listing is the ultimate Hawaiian retreat for beachfront living, offering buyers the opportunity to own a slice of tropical paradise.
The fully renovated property on Crozier Drive in Waialua, Oahu – the island to where the Obamas have a home – combines luxury living and pristine natural beauty, all for a staggering $9.738million.
Listing agent Noel Shaw of Hawaii Life described the rare piece of untouched beauty a rare gem as they are increasingly difficult to find in the Aloha State.
‘There are very few spaces in Hawaii that still feel undiscovered,’ Shaw told Mansion Global.
‘You can walk that beach and still feel like it was 100 years ago, yet you are just 40 to 45 minutes from Honolulu. Hawaii has so much been discovered, but not here.’
The property underwent an extensive renovation in 2020 and 2021 that transformed it into what Shaw describes as essentially ‘a brand-new house.’
The home was ‘renovated down to the studs.’ Aside from the roof and the deck, everything is new, Shaw revealed.
The sprawling home sits right on the beach lined with palm trees and clear waters

‘It’s so rare for Hawaii to get this level of quality. It’s like a brand-new house,’ she said.
Upon entering through elegant double front doors, visitors are immediately greeted by an open-plan living area featuring soaring ceilings and enormous windows with picture-perfect views of the lush lawn, pristine white-sand beach, and the Pacific Ocean.
There is impeccable attention to detail throughout the property, with European cabinetry, luxurious hardwood floors, and a state-of-the-art kitchen.
The kitchen area features a spacious island, premium stone countertops, and top-tier appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf and Thermador, plus a 100-bottle wine refrigerator for the oenophile, according to the listing.
For those who love to entertain, there’s even a second fully-equipped kitchen located in the one-bedroom guesthouse.
The main residence offers two bedrooms on the ground floor, while the primary suite occupies the entire upper level.
This property also includes not one but two private decks offering breathtaking panoramic views of both the mountains and ocean – perfect for watching Hawaii’s legendary sunrises and sunsets.
The stunning beachfront property boasts the ultimate luxury of privacy, with a secluded stretch of white sand beach that remains uncrowded throughout the year.

‘The beach is not near a public right-of-way, and it’s not busy nor noisy,’ Shaw explained. ‘You can swim and snorkel right in front of the house. You see sea turtles there all the time.’
While the North Shore is world-famous for its massive waves that attract professional surfers from around the globe, this particular property offers the best of both worlds thanks to its unique location.
‘The North Shore of Oahu has the biggest waves in the world,’ but because of a barrier reef near the house, ‘you can swim and snorkel 12 months of the year,’ Shaw said. ‘You get to be near the action but still swim safely.’
It’s also surrounded by natural beauty and wildlife.
‘You see sea turtles there all the time.’
‘Stroll beachfront with your morning coffee from the covered lanai of this turn-key oceanfront estate and onto a lush lawn, dotted with palm trees and framed by the Pacific stretching out before you,’ the Compass listing writes.
The sprawling property encompasses 4,730 square feet of exquisitely designed living space, with a total of four bedrooms, three full bathrooms and one partial bathroom.
The estate sits on a 0.43-acre lot that extends right to the ocean’s edge.

‘The vaulted plantation-style ceilings, hardwood floors, & neutral colors throughout lend an air of laid-back glamor to this North Shore property.
The charming town of Haleiwa, renowned for its shopping and dining opportunities, is just ‘six or seven minutes away,’ while the vibrant city of Honolulu and its international airport can be reached in 40 to 45 minutes.

The Obama home butts directly onto Waimānalo Beach in Oahu and overlooks the ancient Pāhonu Pond – an enclosure that juts 500ft out into the Pacific and was used by native Hawaiian chieftains to raise turtles for their meat
The former president and first lady are said to be headed towards divorce which now raises questions as to whether their marriage will survive until moving day
Last month exclusive Daily Mail aerial photos revealed the lavish three-acre estate of the Obamas on Oahu.
It is valued by the local tax assessor at over $18million, comprising three properties with a combined 11 bedrooms, 14 bathrooms, two pools and two Jacuzzis.
Daily Mail’s exclusive photos show the finished, wood-paneled and white-roofed exterior, manicured yard lined with palm trees, and private access to a stunning beach in Waimānalo – a striking difference from previous photos of the construction site taken in February 2022.
