Laird Hamilton's Maui Home Sells For $2.4M

As reported in the Wall Street Journal, Laird Hamilton’s Maui estate at “Jaws” went under contract in one week and sold for $2.4M after being listed on the MLS at $2.75M.

The legendary water-man’s property—featured on MTV Cribs—included a 5,000 square foot home, a barn, large fishponds, and mature plantings of bananas, passion fruit, guava, and coconuts.

Hamilton and wife, Gabrielle Reece (former professional volleyball player, now a fitness guru), had converted the entire first floor into a gym and the 1,674 sq. foot garage housed six vehicles, a flotilla of watercraft, and jet skis used for tow-in surfing.

Hamilton, who said he could “hear Jaws break” from his bedroom, chose the site for its proximity to the surf spot—to fulfill his dream of riding Jaws whenever it broke.

Though the big wave rider still intends to surf the mega-waves at Peahi on Maui, Hamilton and his family are spending more time on the north shore of Kauai and have plans to build a home in Hanalei.

Very cool, Tiffany! I wonder if the new owners were “stoked” that Laird had owned it. Surely they must love the ocean!! This is another example of why properties in our state are so desirable to many.

I think many people who buy property in Hawaii have an affinity with the ocean. The new owner of the Hamilton compound was excited to inherit a few Laird Stand-up Paddle boards. Hopefully those boards will get lots of use in the ocean! I know I enjoy surfing on my Laird board every day!

That is amazing. Ironically, spoke with my parents who live in Massachusetts, and I honestly didn’t know about this until my mom asked me about an agent named Tiffany that works for Hawaii Life who sold Gabrielle Reece’s house. I obviously live under a rock, not on one.

I loved your bio, you seem like an awesome person, and how can we not know how as an agent you rock!!! Have a great day, just wanted to give props. Congrats! Take care…
