While the exterior boasts a craftsman style design, the professionally decorated interior has a coastal inspired theme much like the homes found in Nantucket featuring warm red oak floors, soft palette colored walls, and crisp white details throughout. The main living space with its open-concept floorplan provides ease in entertaining with a brightly lit kitchen, dining room, oversized great room anchored by a large fireplace and flanked with a pair of French sliding doors leading to a screened porch, covered deck area, and bluestone patio, perfect for BBQs or outdoor gatherings. The generous primary suite, guest bedroom, office and full bathroom complete this floor. Finished in 2014, the walkout lower level is ideal for those desiring privacy away from the rest of the household. Having a separate garage and private entrance allows access without being intrusive to the main living area. Spoil your guests with their own eat-in kitchen, sitting room, bedroom, bathroom, and laundry. This exquisite residence is ideally located in the center of town within walking distance to Rye town hall, recreation area, library, and schools and just a quick 1.5 mile drive to the Atlantic Ocean and local beaches.
