Bees Homes Private Collection, Rye

The Private Collection

Where the river breathes and the light never settles.

On ground below Rye's ancient Citadel, where boatbuilders once worked and the port has long since fallen quiet, there is a house that belongs as much to the water as to the town. Cedarwood, stone and glass, drawn from the old Net Shops of the coast. Walls of shifting Inchyra Blue, floor to ceiling windows over the tidal river, and a balcony where the water remakes itself by the hour.

Three bedrooms, a principal suite with its own river view, and a garden held behind a sea wall that catches the last of the sun.
London a little over an hour away. France within reach. A house in conversation with the water.


Out and about in Rye
Buzzing with personality, Rye is a home that celebrates its fascinating history - regularly hosting a variety of annual events, including the renowned Rye Jazz Festival, the Rye Arts Festival and the medieval-style Rye Rebellion Bonfire Procession and grand fireworks display, where flaming torches wind through the streets, culminating in a spectacular gathering at The Salts.

Rye is a town that delights at every turn, with its independent shops, artisan markets and a thriving food scene. The Standard, The Union, Fig, and The George are all ideal spots for an evening out.

Chapman's Fish market supplies some of the finest seafood in the region and in the summer months, Tibbs Farm invites visitors to pick their own fruit. For wine lovers, local vineyards such as Chapel Down, Gusbourne, Oxney, and Tillingham offer tastings and tours amidst rolling countryside.

Beyond its culinary delights, Rye offers a wealth of outdoor activities. Walkers and nature lovers will relish the trails leading to Rye Harbour's renowned Nature Reserve, where rare birds and wildflowers thrive.

A short journey away, Camber Sands stretches for miles - a golden beach perfect for a bracing coastal walk or a day of kite surfing. Inland, public footpaths weave through sheep-dotted fields, leading towards historic landmarks including Camber Castle.

Home to a thriving community, residents join together for annual events, from the spectacle of the Rye Bonfire Night to the intimate charm of Christmas in the Citadel. The Kino, a boutique cinema in a converted church, screens everything from the latest releases to timeless classics, adding yet another cultural gem to Rye's offering.

For those seeking an active lifestyle, Rye provides ample opportunities. A golf club, tennis club and bowling green offer traditional sporting pursuits, while yoga studios and cycle routes cater to modern wellness trends. With a friendly, welcoming community - one that has gathered for events such as the late Queen's Jubilee and the King's Coronation - this is a place where neighbours connect without encroaching.

More than just a home; it is a lifestyle. A sanctuary of light and space, set within a town that brims with history, charm and creativity. The perfect blend of comfort and inspiration, from morning coffee on the balcony to evening strolls along the river, discover the delights of this contemporary townhouse where life moves to the timeless rhythm of the tides.
