Currently a year-round, three-family property lovingly maintained by owners who have enjoyed living there while renting out two apartments. Classic columns surround the wrap-around porch and set the stage for both grand entertaining and quiet moments. Sip a refreshing mint julep in the shade of summer or a cup of hot chocolate on your favorite rocker on a snowy New England day. The location is brilliant and offers all the lifestyle amenities you expect: from golfing, tennis and pickle ball to cycling, kayaking and paddle boarding…as well as fishing and boating to surfing and walking on the beach at sunrise. Minutes from bustling downtown Portsmouth and an hour from Boston, Rye is also an easy launching point for a day trip or long weekend in the NH lakes and mountains region. Open House Saturday, December 3rd from 12 to 2.
