About This Home

As of January 2026

Rye’s best offering—an exceptional, recently constructed (2015) oversized Cape Cod, privately sited on 3+ acres. From the main entrance, the rear sliders frame tranquil views and draw you into the spacious, inviting family room featuring direct outdoor access and a gas fireplace. The family room opens seamlessly to the brand-new gourmet kitchen, complete with an oversized island, Thermador appliances, quartz countertops, abundant custom cabinetry, a pantry closet, and direct access to the custom patio, hot tub, sauna and fire pit. Conveniently connected to the kitchen are the garage entry and separate laundry room, as well as the formal dining room. The main level also offers an en-suite primary bedroom—ideal for one-level living with only four steps from the garage to the kitchen. The primary bath features an oversized tile steam shower and double vanity, while the bedroom captures serene views of surrounding vegetation and stunning morning sunrises. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms and a full bath, plus a second en-suite primary option with a walk-in closet and full bath. Directly off this suite is 800 sq ft of unfinished space over the garage—offering endless expansion possibilities and separate access via the garage.This property checks every box: first-floor Primary, central air, 2-car attached garage, a full dry finishable basement, extensive custom hardscape, and 3.3 acres of privacy. Close to beaches and Portsmouth. Low taxes, great schools.
