Isthmus on North Kiama Drive - On the beach, swimming pool, quiet location, close to the river

Architect designed, Isthmus on North Kiama Drive is a two- storey modern and comfortable fully fenced home offering pure indulgence with two defined living areas, double lock up garage, and private in ground saltwater swimming pool.

Bring the outside in with the double stacker doors from the open plan lounge room to the second storey balcony, where you can sit back and enjoy the views whilst listening to the ocean across the road.

Views from the open plan upstairs living, dining and kitchen areas are to be enjoyed all year round and lead to a spacious balcony perfect for entertaining. On this level are three bedrooms, a sun room with day bed and two bathrooms.

Watch a classic or something new on Netflix on the large projector tv in the media room which has comfortable couches and pool table. Sliding doors open onto the undercover courtyard which is perfect for the summer BBQ's around the sparkling in-ground pool.

This is the perfect family holiday home where direct access to the surf patrolled Jones Beach is across the road and the children's play park is just a stroll away.

Outside pets are welcome. The southern end of Jones Beach opposite is an off-leash dog friendly beach so you're furry friend can also enjoy the sand and sea.

For the coffee lover, Cantik Place is a must-visit where you will also find the well-stocked IGA supermarket, takeaway fish and chip, pharmacy and liquor store.

Something a little faster paced, Kiama is only a 5 km drive away, here you will find endless options for restaurants and cafes. Kiama is also known for the variety of retail shopping, markets and the famous 'Blow Hole'. We recommend a visit to Sincerely Summer, Beachside Emporium, Deer Willow and Bombo Clothing.

The Kiama Coastal Walk, which stretches across the entire Kiama region, passes through Kiama Downs and right past Isthmus on North Kiama Drive. This pathway can be taken to explore what Kiama Downs has to offer. You can walk or ride north to the Minnamurra River or south to the 'Boneyard' a popular and secluded swimming spot. Those even more adventurous can continue the walk into the Kiama township via Bombo Beach.

A short walk or drive away is the quaint Minnamurra village - home to the popular Minnamurra River where you can go fishing, kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, or visit the Minnamurra Caf - a locally owned and run caf famous for their coffee. Or continue to Jamberoo where you can visit the famous Jamberoo Pub, go for a walk on the boardwalk at Minnamurra Rainforest or treat the kids to waterpark fun and mountain slides at Jamberoo Action Park.

Great property
We had an enjoyable stay at Isthmus in Kiama Downs. The house is lovely, very spacious and comfortable for our group of 9 adults. Has a well stocked kitchen and good amenities. The ground floor entertainment area needs a bit of TLC - sofas and carpet needed a good clean and sanitation. The room has bad odour, we had to use some scented candles and lots of air freshener to mask the musky smell. Coffee table was dirty and work. Plus one of my friends had a skin allergy after seating on the sofa. Also lots of cobwebs in the pool area and balcony. The glass doors in the front balcony were very dusty but the cleaner was kind enough to wipe it for us when we requested a cleanup after we checked in. The timber floors on the second floor were sticky and we couldn’t find a floor mop to clean it. Location was very convenient just across Jones Beach, few mins walks to shops and cafes and 6 mins to Kiama. However, some construction in the area and neighbours are very close, we didn’t feel comfortable using the pool and spa. Overall we had a great time and I would have given it top marks if the house was a lot cleaner considering the high rates.

Nice house in great location
Lovely area and the house is in a great location close to everything. Was plenty of space for our family to spread out around the house and was great that property is pet friendly. There were some issues with the projector in entertainment room only working one night of our stay plus there were issues with BBQ and the dishwasher during our stay which should be addressed for future stays.

Isthmus Kiama Downs
Terrific house for our party of 8. Area has some beautiful , easy walks and within an easy driving distance of all the major attractions. We loved it because the area is like a village rather than a high rise resort area. We had our dog with us and there’s an off leash area directly across the road. Sunrise on the front verandah for our early risers was just lovely. Would definitely stay again at this property.

Great location, lovely house, very roomy, fantastic aspect from the house to sit and chill out but also incredibly close to nice beach and walk to Minnamurra Headland. Good shops within easy walk. House well equipped for fun including the pool table and projector screen downstairs. Do be aware you are quite close to neighbours on the sides and back if that matters to you.

Lovely large house just across the road from the beach. No houses opposite. There is a step going up to the kitchen which you need to watch out for, it’s hard to see and a bit of a trip hazard. Otherwise a very nice place to spend the weekend.
