Rising above a peaceful and elevated pocket in Kiama Downs, this expansive family home captures an immediate sense of sanctuary. Set on a substantial 938sqm (approx.) north-facing block, the home looks out across the gentle roll of the suburb toward the shimmering reaches of the Minnamurra River and the escarpment beyond. It is a rare vantage where cooling coastal breezes, all-day northern sunlight, and absolute serenity set the tone from dawn until dusk.
Occupying its own dedicated level, the king-sized master retreat is designed as an intimate private world perfect for escaping from the rest of the family after a long day. Here you will wake up to uninterrupted morning views towards Minnamurra River directly from your pillows-a perspective few homes in the Gainsborough Estate can rival. Exceptionally scaled, this tranquil haven features plush new carpet, its own reverse-cycle climate control, a walk-in wardrobe, and a refreshed ensuite.
Under soaring raked ceilings, the home's central living and dining areas showcase timeless architectural character centered around the warmth of a slow-combustion wood fireplace, balanced by modern split-system air conditioning and warm timber floorboards. The kitchen is well-equipped for culinary pursuits and entertaining alike, complete with solid Caesarstone benchtops, quality appliances, walk-in pantry, and a plumbed fridge cavity.
Seamlessly extending from the central living area, the supersized north-facing entertainer's deck acts as an expansive outdoor living room suspended in the tree canopy. Partially sheltered for year-round dining, this vast alfresco platform is tailored for gatherings of any scale. Below, a fully self-contained studio with private external access, kitchenette, and dedicated ensuite unlocks remarkable adaptability. This flexible space provides the ideal teenage hideaway, extended family accommodation, executive home office, or guest quarters without compromising the privacy of the main residence. For the savvy purchaser, the space can also be utilized for Airbnb accommodation, providing a secondary income stream while maintaining complete privacy.
Meander down the newly formed granite pathways into a private botanical oasis. The tiered grounds have been purposefully replanted with drought-hardy Australian natives, creating a thriving sanctuary for local fauna. Most delightfully, the garden is home to its very own resident satin bowerbird, complete with an active, meticulously maintained bower. From king parrots and honeyeaters in the branches to frequent visitors in the bird baths, the grounds offer a rare and authentic connection to nature.
Beyond the front door, life in Kiama Downs unfolds at an enviable coastal rhythm where the best of South Coast living is right at your fingertips. Adjacent to the leafy expanse of Turpentine Reserve, the property offers an incredible natural extension to your backyard-perfect for kids to run around and explore, daily dog walks, or simply unwinding in nature. Within a moments drive (5 mins approximately), you can be catching the morning swell at patrolled Jones Beach, paddle-boarding or kayaking the crystal-clear tidal waters of the Minnamurra River, or taking a refreshing high-tide dip along the sandy river shallows. With local cafes, Kiama Golf Club, and scenic headland walks all close by, it's easy to see why this enclave is so highly sought after.
