Intriguing sounds of ocean waves welcome you to this magnificent estate, exquisitely sited with lovely gardens, stonewalls and panoramic views. The rambling stucco residence and generous use of stone transforms "Somerset at Rye" into the European countryside with casual elegance and panache. From dramatic high ceilings, artisan woodworking and materials, this residence reflects state of the art construction and workmanship. Kitchen entertaining would be applauded by Martha Stewart with the exciting style and chef inspiring attention to detail. Lavish limestone counters and stunning custom cabinetry complement expansive informal dining. Gorgeous formal rooms are a showcase of architectural blending with old world character. Private retreats with exceptional flair include an office, gallery, guest wing, master suite and multiple bedrooms. Amenities include a lovely pool, stone patio and unique Porte-cochere with storage for four cars. A most distinctive property in coveted Rye Beach.

THE POINT- New Hampshire's consummate waterfront property on legendary Straw's Point (Locke's Neck), is located on a 1.29 acre promontory jutting boldly out into the Atlantic with panoramic land and water views of the Isles of Shoals, Cape Ann Massachusetts and the Maine Coast. This circa Eighteen Seventy 5132 square foot Mansard Style Victorian is offered outside the family for the very first time. The home together with eight other turn-of-the-century cottages form a necklace surrounding a common pastoral Green. This architectural gem is in need of a total restoration worthy of the effort and expense required. Straw's Point is a private community governed with its own road association, protective covenants and architectural restrictions affording ocean front tranquility and privacy available to only a fortunate few. A sandy Atlantic Ocean swimming beach is nearby and it is a short distance to Rye Harbor and legendary Abenaqui Count
