An internationally acclaimed masterpiece of organic architecture, the legendary Onion House is a rare opportunity for a connoisseur of Architecturally significant homes. Hand-built by master architect Kendrick Bangs Kellogg, this iconic estate offers an immersive experience minutes from town, yet worlds away. Curved steps guide you onto a terrace framed by views of the Kona coast. The property’s silhouette features two structural shells mirrored in a brilliant 70-foot turquoise pool wrapping around the compound. A custom pivoting glass door reveals open-air interiors with vibrant stained-glass windows by famed artist James Hubbell. Cast-in-place concrete arches radiate from a central fireplace, spanned by translucent roof panels that bathe the home in a warm glow by day and illuminate like twin Japanese lanterns by night. The interior walls are formed of native Hawaiian Koa wood and slanted lava rock walls echoing ancient Hawaiian heiau. Redefining indoor-outdoor living, the exterior utilizes screens and stained glass, allowing tropical trade winds and the fragrance of jasmine to drift seamlessly through. A covered walkway leads across the water to a completely detached master bedroom oasis offering ultimate seclusion, complete with its own bath and private meditation garden. Lovingly maintained, the estate matches architectural prestige with exceptional financial sustainability. It features a legacy unhosted Short-Term Vacation Rental (STVR) license. Offered with adjoining garden parcels 3-7-7-9-53 and 3-7-7-9-54, this almost 1 acre compound ensures complete privacy, view protection, and an unrepeatable piece of architectural history.
