    What's special

    Historic Rye Beach 16-room estate sited on 1.17 lush acres overlooking the fairways of Abenaqui Country Club and just a short stroll via sidewalks to the seaside boardwalks and the country club’s clubhouse! Originally built by industrialist, former congressman, and former Mayor of Portsmouth, Frank Jones. It's one of only five homes thought to have been built by Jones, who also built the Rockingham Hotel and the Wentworth Hotel. The house is replete with Victorian detailing and mansard design, with no feature or detail overlooked. From the minute you walk into the elegant foyer, you're wowed with period molding, detail, and history. Anchoring the home is an epicurean-inspired island kitchen with rich warm cabinetry, tin ceilings, butler's pantry, and premium appliances such a British AGA gas range. A cozy breakfast room with fine detailing overlooks the rear deck, patio, grounds, and gazebo. Just off the kitchen areas you'll find a one-of-a-kind two-story great room with rich raised cherry wood paneling, a wood-burning fireplace, and tin ceilings. A Formal living room off the foyer offers a tranquil retreat features high ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, intricate ceiling details, and warm wood floors. Elegant formal dining room off kitchen. Spacious primary suite features a luxury steam bath with radiant floors and soaking tub. Generator and elevator. Alternate primary suite with en-suite bath. After nearly 35 years, it's time for a new family to enjoy One Fairway Drive.
