    "Pukalani, the gateway to UpCountry Maui, is a community nestled at the 1500' elevation on the slopes of the 10,000' dormant volcano Haleakala which last erupted 200-400 years ago. It's location gives it a mild climate several degrees cooler than the Central Valley below. This property is located near the Pukalani Terrace Shopping Center which houses several restaurants, a hardware store, auto parts store, a post office and a large grocery store. Pukalani also has two gas stations, a private golf course and an elementary school. The Intermediate and High Schools are within a mile away. It's proximity makes it an ideal place to live ... adjacent to the other UpCountry Maui communities and just 15 minutes away from the airport and the island's major commercial center of Kahului."

    "Burns Place is a jewel of a street. It is a true neighborhood, with neighbors like family and total safety and security. Most of the homes are very wel kept and the yards are immaculate. If you can get a home that needs some fixing up on this street, you will most likely improve your property value exponentially. Most homes on this road have been in the same families since the street was made, so there is a real pride of ownership, especially on the first half of the street. It is a dead-end road with no turn around, so traffic is very minimal. It is a mixture of retirees, families, and singles on the road. The neighbors are all different nationalities. The nights are pin-drop silent. This is a rare street on Maui... I know of few other neighborhoods with this nice of homes and neighbors in this price range. The street is within walking distance to the shops and restaurants of Makawao, yet you are right on the edge of the country and rain forest. The weather is perfect... 82-84 degrees every day, year round. It rains just enough to keep it green year round, but it isn't soggy like it can be when you go even just a bit further north. "
