About This Home

As of November 2025

Just around the corner from Rye’s Town Beach and the Atlantic Ocean, this beloved beach house has been part of one family’s story since it was built in 1950. Tucked towards the end of a quiet dead-end street on a 0.21-acre lot, it’s surrounded by some of Rye’s most coveted beach neighborhoods. Inside, you’ll find a simple, classic floor plan with three bedrooms, a full bath, and a sunny living area centered around a wood-burning fireplace. Ready for a new chapter, this home invites your imagination—update, renovate, or reimagine it into the coastal getaway of your dreams. With single-level living, public water/sewer, and the perfect seaside setting, it’s truly an opportunity in the best location Rye has to offer. Discover the best of coastal living at 56 Surf Lane, perfectly situated just two minutes from Rye’s beaches, fifteen minutes from Portsmouth, and an hour from Boston. Open House Saturday, October 11th 10am-12pm.
