34 Reading Street, Port Macquarie.

Custom-designed to embrace its rainforest backdrop, this distinctive single-level home brings exceptional craftsmanship and thoughtful planning to a private 908 sqm block. Inviting you to experience the surrounding landscape from within, carefully framed expanses of glazing capture light filtering through the trees, with sliding doors welcoming birdsong and airflow into the living spaces. Outside, an expansive covered terrace draws you closer to the greenery, offering a private place to read, relax or spend an unhurried afternoon with friends. With Shelly Beach within walking distance, time by the ocean is as easy to enjoy as the tranquillity of home. Inspired by the owners' travels and appreciation for mid-century design, the interiors combine natural stone, textured finishes and bespoke joinery, with ceilings rising to 3.5 metres at their highest point. A Lopi gas fireplace with a Bauwerk limewash surround complements the living area, while the Scandinavian-inspired entertainer's kitchen features Caesarstone benchtops and splashback, an illuminated silky oak shelf and a walk-in pantry. The same design consideration extends to a flexible layout that welcomes family and guests while respecting everyone's privacy. A two-bedroom central residence connects to a privately accessed suite at either end, with lockable internal doors allowing the home to be enjoyed as one or as three private sections. The northern suite includes a separate lounge or study, a travertine ensuite and a private terrace overlooking the rainforest. Japanese Wabi Sabi influences give the generous southern suite its individual character, with a kitchenette, handmade concrete basin and a deep concrete bath overlooking lush planting. A private stone courtyard with an outdoor shower extends the retreat outdoors. Across the property, extensive solar and battery storage, EV charging and an oversized double garage add practical appeal. The two suites currently operate as a luxury B&B alongside the owners' residence, with the established business, name, website and associated arrangements available by separate negotiation, subject to agreement.
