This custom post-and-beam home with its iconic attached barn presents an exceptional opportunity to own one of Rye's most distinctive properties. 1.56 private acres just minutes from the beach, this one-of-a-kind home blends New England character, flexible living space, and endless possibilities. A truly one-of-a-kind Seacoast property centered around an extraordinary heated post-and-beam barn that offers endless possibilities for entertaining, creative pursuits, wellness, hobbies, car collections, home business, or simply gathering with family and friends. Beautifully restored with soaring ceilings, wide-plank floors, and authentic timber framing, this is the kind of space buyers rarely find and never forget. Surrounding this remarkable barn is a thoughtfully renovated New England home where historic character meets contemporary design. Sun-filled interiors, exposed beams, updated kitchen and baths, and over 2,400 square feet create comfortable everyday living while preserving the home's original charm. Three bedrooms, two baths, multiple living areas, and flexible spaces make the home equally suited for year-round living or a coastal retreat. Set on 1.56 private acres, the property offers the best of both worlds. A peaceful country setting with open lawn, mature landscaping, and room to add a garage or ADU, yet less than ten minutes from the Atlantic Ocean, Portsmouth, and some of the Seacoast's finest beaches, restaurants, and shopping. Major improvements, including a new septic system, updated mechanicals, and extensive exterior renovations, provide peace of mind rarely found in a historic property. Properties like this seldom become available. Whether you envision unforgettable gatherings in the barn, a private studio or wellness space, or simply a home unlike anything else on the Seacoast, this exceptional property offers a lifestyle that cannot be duplicated.
