A celebrity listing on Maui highlights how much high-end Hawaii property has gained, good news for luxury sellers and a reminder of how far out of reach the top of the market is for everyone else.

• Jim Carrey has put his oceanfront Maui estate on Kihei Road up for sale at $35 million.
• The listing is handled by local firm Hawai'i Life.
• The nearly one-acre property comes with a pool and a separate guest building.
• County records show he paid $16.5 million in 2016, so the asking price would double his money.

Outlook: Whether the home fetches its full price will be a useful test of demand at the very top of Hawaii's housing market.
