Luxury entertaining, abundantly spacious rooms and lush, leafy outlooks characterise the resort-like family living at 38 Banksia Drive, Kiama.

Perched on 604 sqm of land opposite semi-rural acreage and within walking distance from town, this lovely four-bedroom, three-bathroom home takes in beautiful rolling hills and tropical foliage from every corner.

It’s a setting the current owners will be sad to leave, according to Greg Crumpton of Stone Real Estate Illawarra.

“They have loved taking the dog along the wetlands nature walk down to the off-leash Bombo Beach about 1 km away, they have loved strolling into town and they have loved being part of this friendly community,” he says.

Featuring chic beech hardwood flooring and three brand new quality bathrooms with beautiful sandstone tiling, this home is aesthetically pleasing and ready to enjoy.

In an offering of multiple living areas, the heart of the home is the open-plan dining, lounge and kitchen area. Awash in natural light, this area of generous proportions flows onto a large front balcony that basks in the morning sun.

Light, bright and modern, the kitchen features a breakfast island, 900 mm gas range and great views, as well as seamless access to the lounge and dining areas, so you can still be part of the action while whipping up dinner.

Greg says the space caters to a multitude of experiences.

“You can enjoy a quiet morning cuppa on the balcony, host easy dinner parties with friends that spill outdoors or just enjoy family time together,” he says.

An extra nook adjoining the living space offers a great study, work or reading environment.

The lovely, large main bedroom has an ensuite and a versatile adjoining space that could be a dressing room, spacious walk-in wardrobe, work-from-home nook, nursery nook for a baby or a simple sitting room, transforming the space into a true parents’ retreat.

Three other generous bedrooms boast built-in wardrobes and share a spacious bathroom with a deep, stand-alone tub that beckons you in for a relaxing soak.

Adjoining this space is one of the biggest drawcards for this home – an almost self-contained retreat complete with a kitchenette, bathroom and direct access to the main outdoor entertainment area.

“It’s a brilliant space for teenagers to have mates over, but would also make a great guest house or granny flat for multigenerational families,” Greg says.

Enjoy hosting guests night and day on the outdoor entertainment deck, with covered al fresco dining, a pizza oven and an impressive 5.5 m swim spa.

Other features include air-conditioning and ceiling fans for year-round comfort, and a double-car lock-up garage with a workshop, plenty of storage and internal access.

The price guide on this home is $1,700,000 to $1,850,000.

A stroll from beaches, cafes, shops and town, this property offers a second-to-none coastal lifestyle.

“There’s a reason Business NSW named Kiama the Top Tourism Town this year, and in this award-winning location, this home stands out,” Greg says.

“It’ll be a happily ever after for the lucky new owners.”
