Set on nearly two acres in the heart of Rye, this New England Colonial offers a rare blend of historic character, thoughtful updates, and a layout designed for modern living—just moments from the ocean. While rich in original charm, the home feels notably more open and functional than earlier antique properties, with nearly 3,000 square feet of flexible living space, four bedrooms, and inviting areas designed for everyday comfort. Sunlight fills the home throughout the day, highlighting wide plank floors and timeless architectural details. The kitchen anchors the main living area and flows naturally to multiple indoor and outdoor spaces, including a spacious deck overlooking the gardens—ideal for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. Set on 1.81 acres, the grounds are a standout feature, offering a combination of curated gardens, mature landscaping, and open lawn space—creating both beauty and usability that is increasingly rare in Rye. A property that honors its history while offering ease and livability.
