The property is also close to many major points of interest throughout the island that are located within about an hour’s drive.”

In 2012, each of the four buildings were placed on the Hawaii Register of Historic Places, and in 2013 the property was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
Matt Davis said, “The historic designation of the property provides the opportunity to utilize an adaptive reuse plan to pursue a number of uses for the existing structures, ranging from a family compound to a private retreat to agritourism to a boutique bed and breakfast, to name just a few.” He added, “The property’s historic designation and location also allow for the potential for a number of possible tax incentives.”
