UpCountry Maui is one of the largest residential districts on Maui, stretching across the western face of Mt. Haleakala. It is an area marked by a wide range of housing development – rustic to Beverly Hills – as well as significant geographic diversity. The north side of UpCountry is subject to the tradewinds and receives more than ample rainfall. The tradewind-driven rain stops roughly where Kula starts and the further south you go, the climate becomes increasingly dry, technically a high mountain desert. So if you like cool, dry weather with excellent farm land, Kula may be the place for you.

UpCountry Land can provide a full range of possibilities – from very small house lots to very large stretches of open country. The one thing common to most of this region is that it is under a County water moratorium. Before you buy UpCountry land and hope to build your home on it any time soon, you will first need to know that the land is either already tied up to the County water system or is entitled to been hooked up sometime soon. You may not be able to build without a water meter.

What’s so great about living UpCountry? The scenic wonder of looking out at the world from thousands of feet above sea level, at the dynamic Pacific Ocean and sunsets on the West Maui Mountains captures everyone’s imagination. The cool mountain atmosphere is nearly perfect. The ability to have all of that and still be within a relatively short drive to the urban center of the island and some of the best beaches in the world pretty much completes the picture.
