West Loch Estates

January 25, 2016 by Maureen Fukumoto Leave a Comment

West Loch Estates is a small community located just west of Pearl Harbor on Fort Weaver Road south of Mililani along Farrington highway. It’s home to the Queens Medical Center and the West Loch municipal golf course.

Technically in Ewa Beach, this residential community stretches from Farrington highway south to the Asing Community Park on the shores of Pearl Harbor. It encompasses the golf course and West Shoreline Park as well. At any given time there are about 5 to 10 properties for sale in West Loch Estates. These homes are priced from about $280,000-$700,000 and were built within the last 20 to 30 years. Homeowners dues are around $55 per month based on lot size and home size. There are roughly 6000 residents in a 1.6 square-mile area. The median home price is about $475,000. Most people that live in West Loch commute to downtown Honolulu or Waikiki, averaging about 35 minutes of commute time.

The majority of homes are located on the east side of Fort Weaver Road and most of these roads are not through streets so you won’t have people speeding through the neighborhood to get somewhere else. On the west side of Fort Weaver Road are a few condominiums, apartments and townhomes.

The West Loch Community Shoreline Park is a small little park perfect for walking or jogging. Several locals do fish at this park even though they’re technically not supposed to. It’s a great place to have gatherings, a picnic, or throw the ball around.

The West Loch Golf Course is also located in Ewa Beach just south of several of the homes. This 18 hole golf course features a short but challenging layout incorporating a variety of water features.

Residents of West Loch are assigned to the Ewa Elementary school, the Ewa Makai middle school and the James Campbell high school. The high school is about 3 1/2 miles away and receives a 9 out of 10 by great schools.org.

Shops, markets, restaurants and more are found just a few minutes north in Waipahu and Honolulu is 17 miles away.

For more information on the West Loch Estates please contact me anytime. I would be happy to send you a customized list of homes that meet your search criteria and price.
