Unique opportunity to create your dream home on a level, 1.5-acre lot directly across the street from Rye Elementary School and a mile from Wallis Sands beach. This charming Cape Cod-style home has a private, wooded backyard lined with picturesque stonewalls and offers potential for expansion or new construction. Best of all, the property has been owner occupied and well maintained for many years. As you walk through its light-filled spaces, you'll find a large living room with beautiful coffered ceiling and a spacious eat-in kitchen with a large window overlooking the tranquil backyard. Rounding out the main level, there is a first-floor bedroom and full bathroom; and upstairs, two additional bedrooms. The 2-car attached garage is accessible through the unfinished basement. As spring takes hold, you'll see blossoming lilac and maple trees, and wild blackberry bushes around the home. This property offers incredible potential to live in the idyllic town of Rye, just a few miles from Portsmouth! Showings delayed until Saturday March 20th. Open House on both Saturday and Sunday. No appointments needed. COVID precautions followed.
