UPDATE: Neil Young Unloads Big Island Estate for $20M

UPDATE: Trust Neil Young. It’s better to burn $4.5 million off the price of your Hawaiian paradise than to fade away. The rocker listed it for $24.5 million last summer, about the time his new album, “The Monsanto Years,” dropped. He unloaded it for a cool $20 million, the Los Angeles Times reports.

ORIGINAL POST 8/24/15: It could be the old man was lookin’ at his life. Or just looking at Mother Nature too little.

Either way, Neil Young is letting go of his Big Island estate - and rockin’ in his Hawaiian world won’t be free.

Listed for $24.5 million, the acreage sits between two bays. “It’s one of the most exceptional properties on the Kohala Coast,” said listing agent Carrie Nicholson of Hawai’i Life Real Estate Brokers. “It’s right off a well-known surf break and a beautiful, white sand beach.”

The property boasts 830 feet of ocean frontage and encompasses a beach house with 5 bedrooms and 4 baths, plus two 2-bedroom guest cottages, two greenhouses and a pool house.

Snorkel in secluded Kiele Bay on the south side of the home, or enjoy lush views from the estate’s spacious verandas.

A host of tropical trees grow on the estate, producing lemons, papayas, pomelos, mangoes and a variety of coconuts.
