About this House

“Calhau” at 1681 Ocean Boulevard is a professionally curated coastal residence at the intersection of design, sustainability, and innovation—offering views of Foss Beach, Awcomin Marsh, and Rye Harbor. What sets this home apart is its unique relationship with the surrounding landscape—marsh views unfolding in the backyard and Atlantic Ocean vistas from the front—creating a daily connection to the rhythms of the coast. Spanning 3,786 sq ft, the home blends timeless materials with modern coastal living. A chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry, honed granite, and Italian tile backsplash opens seamlessly to dual living spaces, where walls of glass frame water views. The first-floor primary suite captures peaceful marsh vistas and features a spa-inspired bath, while two additional en-suite bedrooms provide comfort and privacy for guests. Architectural details elevate the experience throughout, including a floating metal staircase, wide-plank white oak flooring, and a thoughtfully integrated interior greenhouse. Expansive 114” Marvin doors create a seamless indoor-outdoor connection to Brazilian wood decks—ideal for enjoying the coastal setting. Built with a forward-thinking approach, Calhau prioritizes performance and efficiency. A 28-panel solar array with battery backup, Platinum LEED certification, and a HERS score of 27 position this home among the most energy-efficient offerings on New Hampshire’s Seacoast. Located in the desirable town of Rye, this is a rare opportunity for the eco-conscious buyer or discerning investor seeking a legacy coastal property—where the surrounding landscape becomes an extension of the home, and every detail reflects thoughtful, forward-looking design.
