About this home

This Rye Colonial is anything but traditional! If youve been hunting for a house with personality, then keep reading. Set on 1.37 acres just 2/10 of a mile from Wallis Sands, this unconventional home offers an open layout on the first floor, with an array of interesting features to keep you intrigued. Quirky nooks and niches throughout add character. Youll find a bright and sunny kitchen, fireplace in the living room, office, studio, French doors leading to a sunroom, three-season room, new deck, and new laundry room. The expanded second-floor master suite has hardwood floors, a walk-in closet, and a completely new bath with 3 shower heads, dual vanity, and separate tub. The adjoining bedroom does not have a closet and the third bedroom with updated bath is on the third floor. An attached apartment increases your options for living arrangements. Unwind, listening to the sounds of the ocean from the screened porch, set away from the house. Come see the whimsy of this fabulous home.

Just 2/10 of a mile to beautiful Wallis Sands beach, this classic colonial home has much to offer. The main level has gleaming hardwood floors and an updated kitchen with custom cabinetry and a large island. Light pours into all rooms. With two bedrooms and two baths on the 2nd floor (one en suite), and a finished third floor bedroom/bath, this home is not short on space. It boasts over 4,000 square feet of living space including a large, one-bedroom apartment which has a separate entrance, an updated kitchen and full bath, laundry, and parking. There is also a large 24x20 room with an attached bathroom that could be a first floor master suite, or an art studio, or any other private space that requires a separate entrance. Ocean and marsh views.
