About This Home

Welcome to the beach! This year round family home , on a 11,000 square foot lot, is directly across from the beach entrance. Located on a street east of Ocean Blvd, you don't have to worry about crossing a busy highway to enjoy Jenness Beach. It's the next best thing to beachfront without high taxes and beachfront headaches. This charming beachside home offers a recently updated kitchen and bathroom. Other recent improvements include a full new HVAC system (new furnace and central air conditioning), new water heater, and foundation repairs that now assist in supporting a second story ( if the new owners want to build up to get more of the fantastic ocean views). Whether you sit by the wood burning fireplace in the winter or host gatherings on the large deck in the summer, this home offers year round enjoyment. This oversized ranch is in terrific shape. However, if one wants to redevelop ,this 100x110 lot has a perfect footprint with respect to setbacks. Most of the value in Rye is in the land. A house across the street sold for $7.6 million and was gutted. A nearby single family building lot recently sold for over $33 million.
