About this space
Directly across the street from Foss Beach, with wonderful tidal pools; shifting sands alter the beach from smooth to pebbly constantly.

From the front of our home, enjoy beautiful sunrises, moonrises, and the ever-changing ocean toward the Isles of Shoals. The Awcomin Marsh behind our home has a clear, calm view during the day, and sunsets at dusk.

Our open and bright home has natural light and central air conditioning for those hot summer days; spaces to congregate and spaces for privacy.
The space
Start your day with a cup of coffee on our upper deck to watch the amazing sunrises, or in our cozy first floor enclosed sunporch. Perhaps go for a morning stroll or just read a book before heading to the beach across the street. Explore the quiet beaches or enjoy summertime activities on a warm day; ride a bike, walk, run, play a round of golf, kayak, paddle board, surf or fish for stripers on the jetties at Rye Harbor or surf cast on the beach. There are many boat excursions from Rye Harbor, .5 mile south. For those who prefer shopping or dining, Portsmouth is 7.5 miles north and Kittery outlets are 13 miles north.
